SHARON OSBOURNE: MY 35-YEAR BATTLE WITH BULIMIA (Mega-Barf Alert)
UK Sun ^ | 9/25/05 | Sharon Osbourne

Posted on 09/25/2005 9:17:05 PM PDT by BurbankKarl

Sharon Osbourne is still battling bulimia after 35 years with the eating disorder, she revealed on Monday.

Sharon, 52, told the Sun newspaper she gorges on pasta and ice cream before forcing herself to be sick.

The mum-of-three has had her stomach stapled and spent £300,000 on cosmetic surgery but said even this had not cured her of the condition.

She still has impulsive eating binges and makes herself sick once a week, although this is down from a staggering four times a day.

She said: "Some people do drink and drugs but for me it's food, food, food. It's about having low self esteem. It's not socially acceptable to be fat - people take the piss out of you."

The petite star, who is only 5ft 2in, said she weighed 16 stone 5lb years ago.

She said: "I literally had to lift the rolls of fat off my belly to wash under it, that's how fat I was. How bad is that? Ozzy loved me as I was - but I didn't."

She has since lost half her body weight by having her stomach stapled and then had eight operations including a tummy tuck, boob job and facelift.

But she revealed the disorder which started when she was a teenager is still a part of her life.

She said: "I'm still bulimic. It's bad but I'm really trying to get better. I stuff myself with food like ice cream and pasta then rush to the loo and make myself sick."

Just being married to Ozzy Osbourne should be enough to make her vomit herself to death.

" but for me it's food, food, food"

It's not about food, it's about a big ego and narcissism. It's about having no real center. It's ego greed.

I for one don't give a whit about what happens to Sharon Osborne and her horrible, pathetic "family". Self-indulgent low class scum with money.

The Osbourne family is like a giant petri dish where evil scientists grow stockpiles of mental disorders.

Having watched their show a few times (I can't help it,it's
like passing by a train wreck),it's really difficult
for me to tell which one of the two is the bigger dirtbag.
