Nikki Glaser got personal about her years-long battle with eating disorders.
The 37-year-old comedian opened the article by sharing her first memory “rejecting food” in the fifth grade. Glaser shared that she opted out of eating brownies that her mother made, telling her mom, “I can’t,” because she thought that’s what women said when it came to things that weren’t good for them. Glaser got candid about the extent of her eating disorder and how it really began during high school.
“The next day at school, people noticed it. They were, like, ‘You look great. You look like you’ve lost weight.’ It felt like getting an A on a test I didn’t study for,” she wrote. “It was the best feeling. The date came and went, but I kept up the streak of not eating. I quickly became addicted to the results and positive feedback.” Glaser said that’s when she became anorexic. “That’s when I caught anorexia. I say 'caught' because it was not in my control; it’s not a choice.
Glaser said in her late 20s, she found ways to starve all day and night. In her 30s, because of intermittent fasting, she was able to hide the fact that she wasn’t eating. Eventually, Glaser writes that her diet consisted of 12-17 protein bars. The E! star said that she has since made a lot of changes in her comedy, being more “honest.” Glaser added that she is also at a place where people can watch her eat, and she feels comfortable. So comfortable, she has her own television show.
