I don't want to feel I'm responsible for anorexia across the country.

Anorexia is an awful thing, but you get yourself into it, and only you can get yourself out of it.

When I was 19 years old, I came down with anorexia. I had it for about a year before it became public. And it had a lot to do with my self-esteem.

I had a very public battle with anorexia.

I don't understand anorexia; I'm too greedy to ever not eat... I just can't do it.

Anorexia was there for me before I got into modeling, but because of the arena and the demands, the disease really got out of control for me. It's like being an alcoholic and going and being a bartender.

I used to refer to myself as a 'theoretical anorexic,' just as crazy when it came to body image, but saved by a lack of self-discipline. My daughters do everything better than I do - they're smarter, more beautiful, happier. What if they end up better at anorexia, too?

I always felt that anorexia was the form of breakdown most readily available to adolescent girls.

I unwittingly became sort of this anorexia spokeswoman.

I was struggling with anorexia, and one of the biggest problems with an eating disorder is you don't realize you have it. And you can't heal until you realize there's a problem.
