Demi Lovato has revealed that she almost re-entered a treatment facility last summer to deal with her eating disorder, nearly three years after initially seeking treatment in 2010.
"It's been difficult. I almost went back to rehab for my eating disorder last summer. I was obsessing over food and terrified of it at the same time. Wilmer Valderrama noticed and called me out on it, which was a relief. I was done being afraid of food and so tired of overeating and not knowing why I did it. Now I'm on a structured meal plan. I eat four small meals and two snacks a day. It's teaching me portion control," she confessed to Fitness magazine.
The singer is learning to appreciate the body God has given her, but admits that building confidence in an on-going process. "It helps to remind myself how far I've come. I recently saw pictures from my first tour, and I spent that whole summer performing in the heat in a red leather jacket because I was ashamed to show my arms. And that was when I was 105 pounds! This tour, I've had the confidence to show my arms at every single concert. It may seem like a small thing, but for me, that's huge," she explained.
The "Skyscraper" songstress credits Kimmy K and her famous family for making American society more accepting of different shapes and sizes. "Say what you will about the Kardashians, but they've really helped make curvy bodies beautiful again. It's so nice to look around and see women with hips and a butt, like Iggy Azalea and Jennifer Lopez. They have great figures, but you know they also work really hard for them and don't try to hide their curviness," she gushed.
