New BBWives Cast Member, Tami Roman on Eating Disorder, “I would throw up, take laxatives, starve myself to get skinny.”
Basketball Wives’ newest cast member, Tami Roman, discusses her eating disorder and struggle with her self-esteem issues. Peep a few excerpts below:
“I have never viewed myself as “pretty” enough. People always tell me that I am attractive, but deep inside I don’t believe it. In fact, it makes me feel downright awkward to hear it. I get real uncomfortable. I felt that in order to be considered truly beautiful, you had to look like Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell or Linda Evangelista.
I felt this need to be skinny so that I could look good in my clothes – this is what my mind believed. I would throw up, take laxatives, and starve myself to get skinny. In retrospect, it is such an unhealthy way to approach the issue of weight loss, but I was young and dumb. I found an orthodontist to help me with my “mania” and he wired my mouth shut so that I would lose weight. As I think about it now, he should have his license to practice revoked LOL. However, I lost weight…15lbs…but as soon as I put any food in my mouth, I gained those 15lbs back and 10lbs more. I was so depressed that I went back to starving myself before I met a woman who changed my life.”
Kudos to her for opening up. Read her full post here.
