Reality TV star Snooki, who overcame anorexia as a youngster, says she will never go back to the eating disorder again.
The 26-year-old is committed to training for two hours a day, five days a week, and although she has lost 44 pounds (19.95 kg) since having her son Lorenzo in August 2012, she is determined to lose her baby weight in a healthy way, reports contactmusic.com.
"This is the best I've ever treated my body. Anorexia has been on my mind (though), even before I started losing weight, I was like, 'Oh crap, I hope I don't go back to not eating again. But I'm never going back to anorexia again," Snooki told Life and Style magazine.
"I don't want Lorenzo to see me go through that. It's not going to happen," she added.
Snooki says cheerleading was a reason she became anorexic.
"I became anorexic because of cheerleading. I wanted to be light so people could throw me up in the air. I got to the point where I only ate ice cubes, all day, for days in a row," she said.
