Amy Winehouse has put paid to rumours that she ever suffered from an eating disorder.

The singer, 23, dramatically dropped from a size 12 to a size eight sparking fears that she was unwell.

But the star, who's been nominated for Best Female and Best British Artist at tomorrow's Brits, says there's a much more straight forward explanation for shedding the pounds.

'I lost the weight when I stopped smoking weed and started working out,' she told the Daily Mirror. I used to smoke £200 of pot a week - which is disgusting - and it made me eat junk.

'Now I think that going to the gym is the best drug. I go four times a week and it gives me the buzz I need.

'Some people reckoned that I looked healthier when I was bigger but I had terrible skin and no energy. Anyway, I've recently put on 7lbs.'

Good for you Amy - scrawny is so not a good look.


I thought she used to suffer from anorexia and that's why she had lost so much weight recently, atleast that's what I read. Anorexia stays with people their whole lives so I thought that was the reason for her dramatic weight loss.

being addicted to excercise isnt good either...thats what mel c from spice girls had! i think she probably has an addictive personality, and replaces these addictions, from pot to drinking and working out

Sometimes heartache will make the weight drop off, she sings about her heartaches and love troubles and it doesn't sound as though she has had a happy time of it over the past couple of years. If your heart is still hurting, sometimes it is so much easier to get into the habit of drinking instead of eating!!

Agree
But:

True. Exercise addiction is considered an eating disorder as well (although the problem isn't eating, but anyway...).

thats a load of crock. i just an article that says she has a dangerous addiction to cardio. she does 2 hours everyday when she close to home then walks home... thats horrible. 7days a week?? most likely doesn't eat and hopefully isn't on that white rock. but its gotta be more than weed... she was such a healthy size in frank! supposedly she was like a 12 or 14? but forget the numbers she was plain ol gorgeous. her body isn't meant to be a size 6!! looking @ those pictures i'd think she was a damn double zero....... eat amy!

well put. i dont buy the whole 'pot' thing. she is scarily skinny. her thighs are about the width of my arms. she is anorexic, and has some massive self-image problems. doesnt eat, exercises too much- diferent manifestations of the same thing.

if she put on 10 kg (at least) imo, she would look fantastic. when she is a szie 12/14, she doesnt really look it, because she naturally has an hourglassly curvy shape, ie she has a WAIST. hence she just looks buxom, womanly, hot.

She looks really good now. I like how she can wear revealing clothes more.
