Lindsay Lohan’s Weight Reaches All-Time Low
23-Apr-2009
Written by: Sharon Ng
People are concerned about Lindsay Lohan and her “unhealthy” frame.
Lindsay Lohan seems to always be in the news due to her hard partying and turbulent relationships, but, this time, her weight is the main focus. Even though it has made headlines before, people are finally convinced that she is dangerously thin, Fox News reports.
According to Dr. Kent Holtorf, Director of the Holtorf Medical Group in Los Angeles – he does not treat Lohan – the 5-foot-5-inch actress weighs 95-100 pounds and has a Body Mass Index (BMI) of less than 16. In order to be considered “healthy,” Lohan should weigh at least 113 pounds and have a BMI of at least 18.
“There are signs of muscle wastage, clearly her bones are protruding and she looks quite rigid,” Holtorf told Fox News. “She looks like skin and bones at this point, Lindsay clearly looks malnourished and unhealthy for her frame.”
Hollywood clinical psychologist and psychotherapist Dr. James E. Walton confirmed that her weight is unhealthy.
“She seems to have no reserves, a little fat is very good because it gives us a reserve to fight off illness and repair injuries,” Walton explained. “It has to be affecting her energy level a bit. It also cushions us against injuries, those low fat levels indicate a possible vitamin and mineral deficiency and can throw off proper hormone balances. She should weigh between 120 and 130 for healthy weight at her height. . . .”
Fox News speculates that Lohan’s recent breakup with Samantha Ronson is still taking its toll on her.
A rep for Lohan did not comment.
