Admit It!

I know all of you want to stick up for your favorite celebrities and say that they're not anorexic.

"Just because you're thin, doesn't mean you're anorexic. Its natural."

That is true, but NOT in Alexa Vega's case. It is very apparent that she has an eating disorder; and before you jump down my throat about how she doesn't, let me explain.

A couple of years ago, Alexa Vega was a healthy, full figured girl. Then, all of a sudden, she lost a drastic amount of weight. Is it just a big coincidence that this happened at the same time everyone in Hollywood started to look pencil-thin? No; Alexa Vega was following the "Super Skinny" trend.

Yes, you can say that her body is changing or that she's losing her baby weight, but most people do that when they're in their early teens. Besides, Alexa Vega is nearing the age when the metabolism starts to slow down, so she should be gradually gaining weight, not losing it.

Is it also a coincidence that a number of the celebrities who were once thick, or full figured got, not just skinny, but sickly skinny, all at the same time; all in the same year? Think about it: Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Richie, Hilary Duff, Kate Bosworth, Jessica Alba. They all used to be thick and full. Most of the listed women would be accused of being chunky in magazines. Why is that in 2005 every single one of them became sickly skinny? Was it something in the Californian air supply? No. It was a trend that everyone was following and Alexa Vega is no exception.
Its not just magic that cause her weight to dip. Its simply not normal for her weight to NATURALLY go from thick to stick.

Alexa Vega is not just "naturally" that skinny or she would have looked this way forever, not just all of a sudden.

u go! way to defend ur self when someone was trying to throw u down currentlyxxxrad. i agree with u when u say she looks aneorexic. because she definitely does. i mean she went from a healthy curvy figure to being like 105 lbs. i'm only a few months older than her and i dont see how that could be attractive to anyone. and i think i'm a tad pudgy but everyone says i'm little. idk. i'm 5'8 and i'm 160, but i have alot of muscle on my frame. and no i dont look like a bodybuilder. but i'm certainly not uber heavy. but i can understand how people can be that little and be healthy.i mean i wonder how much stress they put their body through to get that little. i know i would never want to go through that.
