 Tara Reid
American Pie actress Tara Reid struggled with anorexia after the breakup with fiance MTV DJ Carson Daly.
 Teri Hatcher
Some sources claim she is battling an eating disorder, but Teri claims she's just careful about what she eats, adding: 'The only thing I'm guilty of is being too athletic and refusing to eat garbage. I eat a lot of fruit'.
"Desperate Housewives" star Teri Hatcher slammed accusations about her having an eating disorder, claiming she has a very healthy life.
The rumours started after Teri, 40, was photographed looking too thin for her age. The actress denied having problems with her weight and confessed she doesn’t want to give a wrong message to young girls around the world.
She fumes: "To think that I would need
to stop eating and be anorexic and sick to get a job is the wrong message to send to girls and women in our society and that really bugs me.
I am all about health and to me size is not what defines your health.
It never crossed my mind that if I was thinner, I would get more jobs."
 Thandie Newton
Thandie Newton’s dress at last night’s Empire Awards certainly didn’t do anything to improve her super-skinny look. It hung off her body shapelessly and her arms looked like twigs - we suspect the Empire Award she won for Best Actress would weigh more than she did…
Speaking to the Mirror, she said that no one ever accuses her of being too slim because “I keep getting pregnant.”
“So one day I’m slim and the next I have a bump. In the last two years my body has changed so much and breast feeding really helps you to lose weight as well.”
“I think the Hollywood size four is a bad thing. I don’t stick to any diets. I eat when I’m hungry. Thankfully I have my mother’s frame and I’ve always been slim.”
 Theresa Marie "Terri" Schiavo
(December 3, 1963 – March 31, 2005) Her physician failed to recognize and diagnose bulimia. She was a woman from St. Petersburg, Florida whose medical and family circumstances and attendant legal battles fueled intense media attention and led to several high-profile court decisions and involvement by politicians and interest groups. Schiavo, then 26, collapsed in her home in 1990 and experienced respiratory and cardiac arrest. She remained in a coma for ten weeks. Within three years, she was diagnosed as being in a persistent vegetative state (PVS). In 1998, Terri's husband and guardian Michael Schiavo petitioned the courts to remove her gastric feeding tube; Terri's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler, opposed this. The courts found that Terri Schiavo was in a PVS and that she should not be kept alive. In 2003, the matter began to receive national attention.
 Tracey Gold
Tracey Gold began her career at age four by appearing in a Pepsi-Cola print advertisement. Tracey reveals that, ironically, the actress was nothing like her honors student character in ABC's, Growing Pains, she was failing her subjects in school. She was finally diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), a learning disability that affects millions of Americans. But it was just one of many "growing pains" Tracey experienced. She was also diagnosed with anorexia nervosa and bulimia in 1990. She had almost starved herself to death. But her family, friends and husband helped her overcome the disorders. When she returned to acting, she starred in a dozen TV movies.
Tracey has written a book about her story titled, "Room to Grow-An Appetite for Life".
