Demi Lovato allegedly gained 60 pounds in just a couple of months due to her nonstop stress eating habits.
In its Feb. 7 issue, National Enquirer claimed that Lovato used to be very conscious of how she looked. But this changed during the pandemic.
Since the singer is also dealing with her mental health issues after overdosing years ago, Lovato’s coping mechanism has always been through food.
A resident doctor for the tabloid weighed in on Lovato’s weight gain and said that this could be very serious for her overall health.
“This kind of weight gain has made Demi a prime candidate for several life-threatening illnesses. The normal weight for someone this height is just 115 pounds,” the doctor said.
Dr. Stuart Fischer also acknowledged the fact that a lot of people gained weight during the pandemic. And more and more people have become obese without knowing that this condition can be fatal to them.
A second resident doctor, Dr. Gabe Mirkin also talked about Lovato’s weight gain even though he has never met the singer.
“Demi is suffering from massive abdominal obesity that is likely accompanied by a liver full of fat. This is the most common cause of diabetes, which greatly increases the risk for fatal heart attacks and strokes,” the source said.
The singer’s history of drug and alcohol use also puts her at risk for more health problems.
An unnamed addiction expert said that Lovato needs to figure out how to cope with what’s broken inside of her and regulate her discomfort through various health ways.
However, it is important to note that the three experts that the tabloid spoke with have nothing to do with Lovato. They are just basing their comments and recommendations on the photos of the singer that they recently saw.
Speaking of these photos, it’s true that Lovato gained a considerable amount of weight in recent months. But at the end of the day, this doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have any regard for her health.
The most important thing is that Lovato is still functional and she also seems happy so fans shouldn’t have to worry about her.
Lovato isn’t also sick and she hasn’t relapsed which is very important because it shows that she’s recovering well even though she packed on a couple of pounds.
