Hilary Duff had an "obsession" with food as a teenager
The 'Perfect Man' star believes she was "way too skinny" when she was younger but has learnt to accept her body shape now she is older
15 November 2014
She said: "When I was 17, I weighed, like, 98 pounds. I was totally obsessed with everything I put in my mouth. I was way too skinny.
"Not cute. And my body wasn't that healthy - my hands would cramp up a lot because I wasn't getting the nutrition I needed. That constant pressure of wanting something different than I had? I regret that."
Meanwhile, the 27-year-old actress and singer - who split with her husband, Mike Comrie, earlier this year - revealed that she worked hard to get her body back after she gave birth to their son two-year-old Luca.
She told Health magazine: "The second I had Luca, I went to go get my hair blown out at the salon ... I was learning how to be a new mom, and I needed to go get my hair done. Then they're like, 'Hilary Debuts Her Post-Baby Body!'
"I was like, I'm not debuting s**t right now. I'm just going on an errand run! There is way too much pressure on women these days. It took me a whole 10 months to build a baby.
"I lost my baby weight from boxing, and I have this awesome trainer, Gabe. I was already there, but I definitely shed, like, 10 more pounds from doing two-a-days for two or three weeks, an hour each session. I live in a cul-de-sac, but I have a big hill, so I would run the hill, then box in my cul-de-sac."
