OBESE WOMAN DEVELOPED ANOREXIA AFTER LOSING 19ST

A former obese woman has told how she lost 19st, but was so terrified of gaining weight that she ended up developing an eating disorder. 32-year-old Lisa Milburn, who once weighed a whopping 29st 7lbs became obsessed with losing weight after a three year mission to get slim. At her worst, the admin worker, from Edinburgh, weighed herself eight times a day. After surviving on just 300 calories a day, Lisa dropped to just 7st 10lbs and was diagnosed with atypical anorexia.
