Amanda Bynes: ‘I have an eating disorder’

Amanda Bynes has sent eyebrow-raising tweets before, but the nature of a recent post caught our attention.

“I have an eating disorder so I have a hard time staying thin,” she posted on her Twitter account Thursday.

Bynes appears to have a serious desire to lose weight. Last month, the retired 26-year-old actress called herself “pudgy” in a self portrait.

She also told Us Weekly in February, “I moved to New York City and I love it! I lost 4 lbs. since I moved. I’m 121 lbs — my goal is 100 lbs.” At 5’7” that would be unhealthy for Bynes.

The serial tweeter used the platform to lash out at gossip blogs for putting up unflattering photos of the “Easy A” star, who’s been photographed in the Big Apple over the last few weeks with several different wigs, Adidas slip-on sandals or with a shirt over her face.

“They write a news article about every tweet I write and I hate the pictures they choose. They repeat what I tweet then add a bad photo.”

She warned, “Only use photos from my twitter when writing an article about me.”

Hoping that the press gets a taste of their own medicine, Bynes tweeted moments ago, “I’m putting a photo up of everyone writing articles about me from now on. I ask you to choose photos from my twitter so I’ll do the same.” Hopefully, she’ll choose a flattering one of us.
