“Where things started to go south for me was when I hit, I think it was 25. There was this certain point where everything that I was doing just didn’t yield the same results. I was just a little bit bigger. In retrospect, that’s just biology and how the body works. You’re not the same size when you’re 18 to when you’re 25.”

The body image pressure pushed her over the edge. She went on beyond dieting and exercising and started taking diet pills called phentermine. It is an amphetamine-like prescription appetite suppressant which was later called bathwater meth by her therapist. She added,

I started injecting myself with HCG. “I was just like, ‘Help me lose weight. What do people do?’ He suggested something this other model did that worked for her. This is this nutritionist to the stars, whatever. I don’t know. I started like a diabetic injecting my stomach every morning,”
