Snooki Slims Down with Zantrex
Snooki is continuing to drop the pounds, reportedly weighing in now at 103 pounds, just 5 shy of her 98 pound goals. Polizzi is still using Zantrax and most would agree she is being paid for her promotion of the diet pills, with tweets like “Glad to hear reports that say I look good =) but it’s not because of HCG! Thanks @Zantrex!”
Snooki has lost so much weight it is spurring rumors that her eating disorder has reared its head again. Hopefully Snooks is following healthy habits in 2012, and her weight loss is healthy- well, as healthy as can be on a diet pill regimen.
Nicole Snooki Polizzi, better known simply as Snooki, weighed a reported 126 pounds last summer while indulging in a lifestyle afforded to her as a member of the popular show on MTV, Jersey Shore.
Since then she has shaped up somewhat, taking her tiny 4′ 10″ frame down to around 110 pounds. Before her recent departure to Italy for the filming Jersey Shore’s fourth season, pictures of a slimmer Snooki were revealed through her Twitter account.
It was revealed last year that Snooki struggled with an eating disorder in high school.
“In high school, I really wouldn’t eat,” she says. “I would only have lunch, and I would only have salads.” She dropped to a dangerous 80 pounds before realizing she had to do something about it.
When someone begins their adulthood struggling with an eating disorders, it seems a little unwise to go the fad diet route (more so than normal, that is). However, last year she followed Dr. Siegal’s Cookie Diet and this time around she credits her weight loss to Zantrex-3, a diet pill that includes ginseng and green tea extract in its ingredients. It should be known that Snooki has signed on as a spokesperson for Zantrex-3.
She also credits a workout routine that includes strength training, an exercise ball, and “probably 2,000 crunches.” She’s been able to avoid side effects from the pills, such as the shakes, and sticks to a diet of mostly lean meats and salads.
Is Snooki Still Struggling with an Eating Disorder?
Jersey Shore star Snooki recently tweeted a number of pin-up worthy shots of herself looking awfully thin. The star admitted that she struggled with anorexia in the past, and we can’t help but worry that her rapid weight loss could be due to some less-than-healthy habits. It’s often said that people who are diagnosed with anorexia and similar eating disorders will struggle with the disease for the rest of their lives.
The four-foot-nine celeb once said that her goal weight is 85 pounds, which is the lowest weight that could be considered healthy for someone her height. This is also only five pounds more than her lowest weight in high school, which she admits was dangerous. We hope she’ll know when to stop for the sake of her health, although moderation isn’t something we associate with Snooki.
Snooki previously endorsed Dr. Siegal’s Cookie Diet, although she credits her most recent weight loss to Zantrex-3 diet pills. However, she’s also been eating a high-protein diet with lots of salads, in addition to doing “probably 2,000 crunches.”
Snooki Has People Asking Questions About Pregnancy and Eating Disorders
The news that Jersey Shore’s Snooki is pregnant has people asking questions about the impact of eating disorders on pregnancy and post-natal weight loss. Every individual is different and how they have (or have not ) processed and healed from the eating disorder will determine how and to what degree they manage the weight gain of pregnancy and weight loss after the child is born.
Snooki has admitted to a dangerous bout of anorexia during high school. She has used the unbalanced Cookie Diet to help her lose weight and seems to continue to lower her goal weight. Eating disorders impact two major aspects of pregnancy – weight gain and lack of control. Weight gain may be more obvious, but despite all our efforts much about what pregnancy does to a woman’s body and how a pregnancy evolves is outside of our control.
A clearly caring eating disorders treatment specialist Christel Parker, LMFT stated, “while pregnant, women who have struggled with eating disorders often share how their changing bodies, hormones and weight gain can ramp up symptoms of their illness. That said, being pregnant and having a child can be an unparalleled motivator in the recovery process. I’ve seen many times how this motivation develops into courage and strength throughout pregnancy and after giving birth.” While pregnancy can complicate the major issues involved in an eating disorder, pregnancy can also provide the existential motivation for a women to change behaviors and find healing, placing the health of her child ahead of her own health.
Weight gain is an important part of pregnancy, which can be painful for those that have suffered from eating disorders. It is suggested that even women classified as obese gain weight during pregnancy and ingest enough nutrients to nourish the growing baby. According to a two-year study, a pregnant woman’s diet has a direct impact on their unborn baby’s brain and their future eating and drinking habits. They are also “sensitized” to the smells and flavors of those foods. Pregorexia is a dangerous trend of trying to avoid any weight gain during pregnancy. Even those who are trying to avoid weight gain may find themselves frustrated when the growing child increases their body weight despite their attempts to remain thin.
Even if an eating disorder is more about personal control than body image, pregnancy can be an experience that pushes a woman back towards feelings that she had in the midst of an eating disorder. I have watched women who are extremely well read about and experienced with pregnancy be surprised by symptoms and experiences. Every pregnancy is different and every woman responds somewhat differently. Such moments complicated by hormonal changes and weight gain can easily cause a woman with a history of an eating disorder to turn back to those old coping skills.
It is my hope that she will be inspired to create the best situation possible for her child. It is my hope that she will seek out healthy foods and an appropriate caloric intake each day to help her child grow. I hope she will avoid alcohol and cigarettes to ensure her child’s development stays on track. I hope that she is surrounded by support and able to manage the stress of pregnancy and the associated weight gain without feeling drawn back into eating disorder coping skills.
Concerns About Snooki’s Dirty Mouth and Health Habits During Pregnancy
The reality star’s spokesperson confirmed back in March that she and fiancé, Jionni LaValle, are expecting. Since then, Snooki’s remained active on Twitter interacting with users about how her pregnancy is going – some supportive, some not.
One user reportedly joked, “I keep hearing you’re going to birth a Dorito,” in mockery of her overly-tanned body. Un-phased, Snooki sarcastically replied, “Or a Cheeto.” One of the other more brash comments from the 24-year-old was that if anyone gets in her way, she’s not above hurting a b****.
Really? While you’re pregnant? We certainly hope that’s a joke. After all, there has been research that shows how music and language can affect an infant’s development before it’s even born. One such study published in Current Biology and Science Daily suggested that infants begin picking up elements of what will be their first language while still in the womb. And similar research showed that human fetuses are capable of memorizing sounds by the last trimester, with a particular sensitivity to melody in music and language.
And since newborns typically prefer their mother’s voices over other sounds and perceive the emotional content of messages conveyed in maternal speech, we hope Snooki cleans up her language or her baby’s first words are likely to be something like ‘I will cut you.’
Another concern? Speculations still swarm that Snooki may be suffering from an eating disorder, which could be violently dangerous to her pregnancy. These concerns arose after Snooki opened up about suffering from anorexia in high school and then lost a considerable amount of weight following the cookie diet and taking the diet pill Zantrex-3. Snooki even announced at one point that her goal was to weigh 85 pounds - which is a low weight even for someone of her petite 4’10” frame.
We just hope she’s being responsible in her pregnancy for the sake of her own health, and the health of her child.
Snooki Opens Up About Her Anorexia
cookie diet, she admits that her weight was once dangerously low. The Jersey Shore star is on the cover of the most recent edition of OK! magazine. In the cover story, she discusses the pressure she faced to be thin as a cheerleader and how she suffered from anorexia in high school.
“It started when I was a junior,” she said. “The reason I did it is because I was very self-conscious about cheer leading…There were these little freshman girls, and I was scared that these little freshman girls were going to take my spot.”
Snooki said that she started eating less, and picking low-calorie foods. “I just started eating salads and salads.” She started skipping meals. “Then I got to a point where I was just eating a cracker a day.” Her weight dropped dramatically. “I was down to 80 pounds. I almost died.”
It’s been reported that Snooki, who is four-foot-nine, wants to get down to 85 pounds. That’s the lowest possible weight for someone of her height to maintain a healthy BMI, so we hope she doesn’t go any lower.
