How Did Lindsay Lohan lose So Much Weight? Weight Loss Journey Explained

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Lindsay Lohan revealed the truth about her weight loss and what caused it.

Lohan admitted that she was suffering from an eating disorder, bulimia, affecting her diet and taking a toll on her body weight. The actress has also owned up and confessed her addiction to alcohol and sometimes even cocaine. 

She was admitted to the hospital in 2005 due to a kidney infection that caused her to lose 15 pounds more. She couldn’t eat because of her suffering disorder and was put on an IV.

Her overall health conditions and substance addiction severely impacted her physical appearance. 

In the February 2006 issue of the Vanity Fair, Lindsay Lohan has said, “I was sick, everyone was scared. And I was scared too. I had people sit me down and say, ‘You’re going to die if you don’t take care of yourself.’”

Like everybody around her, Lindsay Lohan was also concerned about her deteriorating health. She was worried about her weight loss, and she knew she had to take care of herself.

Lindsay attended various Anonymous Alcoholic Meetings. “You have to learn for yourself and hit rock bottom sometimes to get yourself back up to the top,” Lohan said. 

 

She has been following a proper diet plan and has recovered some of the weight she lost while sick. The actress is regaining her weight and confidence and is actively sharing photos of herself on social media. 

 

What Happened to Lindsay Lohan?

While Lindsay Lohan was confronted with questions about drug abuse being the cause of her weight loss, she said that it was an experiment for attention to see if her friends were her friends. 

In an interview with Oprah in 2014, she openly admitted that alcohol was an escape mechanism for her, and she also uses cocaine occasionally. 

She has been in and out of rehab multiple times from 2007 to 2014. 2007 was the year she hit rock bottom, where she was also arrested on multiple charges, including driving under the influence and possession of cocaine.

In 2019, she weighed about 112 lbs at a height of 5.48 inches. 

Lindsay Lohan is in much better shape both physically and mentally and has been able to turn her life around and pick herself up from her mess.
