Blake Lively Got Skinny Like a Beauty Queen
Categories: We Love To Gawk At Fit Celebs, Diet & Weight Loss, Celebs & Entertainment

Gossip Girl's Blake Lively is one of the first names on everybody's list of hot, young talent. She's stunning, hard-working, and, by all accounts, a really nice girl. She's also very committed to her work -- the almost 5'10" beauty stuck to a strict diet to portray a bulimic beauty queen for the indie flick Elvis and Annabelle.
Blake has said before that her first true love is food, so dropping pounds wasn't a simple task. However, she slimmed down her already trim figure by making "chicken breasts from Whole Foods on a George Foreman Grill, with asparagus and broccoli." At the same time, she was working to tone up, and told W magazine, "It was the healthiest I've ever been."The W interview was conducted over lunch, after which Blake was going home to bake, so it sounds like once the movie wrapped, so did her super strict diet. She looks fantastic, though, and I'm happy to see she'd rather look slim and healthy than super-skinny. Smart girl!

I am a bit torn in regards to this comment made by Blake. While I think it is wonderful that she adopted some very healthy habits and felt great about herself.... she did this in order to play a beauty queen with an eating disorder? I am glad she did not go to more drastic measures (such as choosing to use Method acting for this and actually throwing up food!!!!), but I kind of wish she could have felt her "healthiest" sans the eating disorder role.
But she IS beautiful. She'd be beautiful at 120lbs or 210lbs :-)
