Those who know Hilary Duff, surely know that she was a "hit" character during the 2000s and her series, "Lizzie McGuire" turned into a real success.
However, this rapid and extraordinary fame caused the actress to face complicated situations that led her to suffer from an eating disorder when she was only 17 years old.
At the height of her fame, Duff was obsessed with body image and the idea of ??being as thin as possible.
"It was horrible," she told Women's Health Australia.
The pressure to maintain the image that "society wanted of her" complicated her adolescence. She went through a difficult period during which she ate less and less.
Although it took some time, the actress says she managed to leave these worries behind.
"I am proud of my body. I am proud that he gave me three children. I've reached a point where I'm comfortable with the changes my body has undergone."
To help others going through the same situation, Duff shared some tips that worked for her and that she still keeps to this day.
1. Spend time with people who make you feel good and who share similar views on health and body positivity.
2. Get enough sleep and balance your diet.
Recently, the actress is shooting for another version of the famous sitcom "How I Met Your Mother". This time it is "How I Met Your Father" and the main character is Duff, with the role of Sophie.
