Demi Moore Reveals Battle With Weight and Body Confidence

Demi Moore has been shrinking before our eyes since her split with husband of six years, Ashton Kutcher. The actress has always been slim, but many have raised concerns over her recent weight loss after pictures revealed her visibly frail figure.

After remaining tight-lipped about the separation since she filed for divorce in November, the actress has finally opened up about the toll it has taken on her health and the body issues she has been struggling with throughout her life.

Demi, 49, told US Harper Bazaar: “When I’m at the greatest odds with my body, it’s usually because I feel my body’s betraying me, whether that’s been in the past, struggling with my weight and feeling that I couldn’t eat what I wanted to eat, or that I couldn’t get my body to do what I wanted it to do.”

The mother-of-three has been battling low body confidence for years, but has listened to the critics over her weight and has taken it on board: “[I’m] In a place of greater acceptance of my body,” she told the magazine. “That includes not just my weight, but all of the things that come with your changing body as you age to now experiencing my body as extremely thin – thin is a way that I never imagined somebody would be saying to me, ‘You’re too thin, and you don’t look good.’

“I find peace when I don’t see my body as my enemy, when I step back and have appreciation and look at all that my body has done for me. It’s allowed me to give birth to three beautiful children, allowed me to explore different roles as an actor, allowed me to be strong.”

But despite making progress with her body image, Demi also revealed her biggest and most worrying fear: “There is no way to reach your fullest potential if you don’t love really find the love of yourself.

“What scares me is that I’m going to ultimately find out at the end of my life that I’m really not lovable, that I’m not worthy of being loved.

“That there’s something fundamentally wrong with me.”

We really hope that Demi is able to conquer these fears!
