I'm sorry but tbh I totally doubt that.

It's because of fluid retention. The reasons for fluid retention in bulimics could be low levels of protein, kidney damage or loss of potassium, calcium and other minerals.

Thanks for the explanation, I didn't know about that..

[Bellechloe]

thats so true! i havent thought that!

[smartarse]

umm... you're all assessing this from a picture?
c'monnnnn. lol

[icelynn]

Just because they threw up (IF they did) that doesn't mean it was done for weight loss...maybe they got food poisoning? Ate too much? Allergies? Or maybe they didn't throw up at all, maybe their faces aren't even puffy (I don't think so anyway)

[.amahlia.]

ok,isnt it a coinsidence that 2 of the most fabulous and successful models right now seem to BOTH have puffy faces at the same show and the pictre is at the same angle..... maybe theres a problem with hte camera and not the person

I posted this in her thread- She's always busy ,out doing something (other than shopping?) everyday. She started losing it naturally while in rehab (her last time) and perhaps it's still continuing- who knows. But being with her sister so much lately in the public eye I would hate to think it's any other reason.

I beg to differ...

The Lohan hags were in New York this weekend shopping for the paps. Ali Lohan desperately needs a job, obviously.

Lilo’s efforts at promoting her sister however were wasted because the only thing anyone can focus on coming out of these photos is her alarming thinnification. Her arms and now her legs. Look at those scarecrow legs.

Lindsay Lohan is out-starving Victoria Beckham. Quite an accomplishment.

And still that selfish pimp of a mother stands there like there’s nothing wrong.

How long before the crash?

I must saw I've seen quite a few back stage shots over the past year or so when I thought Cat had a really puffy face. I'll go look for some later on.

I'm sorry, don't want to offend you, but: that seems a little far-fetched to me

repeated vomiting causes the salivary glands to swell in some people

i think there is still debate/uncertainty as to why they swell exactly, but there are some theories within this report, although i don't understand half of what it says

Maybe their faces just seemed puffy, because several other models have so gaunt faces. To me Lara and Catherine weren`t so bad, and the make-up is awful.

Edit: OK, I checked the pics again and Cat looks way worse than Lara, I think she looks like she`s ill or something.

[Child_in_time]

To me at least Lara looks her normal self, it's just the lighting and make-up that may make her look bloated, though I don't think she is...

cat has always had a puffy face. when she was on the cover of Girlfriend magazine when she won back 4 years ago, she is just that shape.

i thought she first lost a whole lot of weight when her boyfriend was discovered to be mixed up in all those fraud claims? and then she possibly just realised she could stay thin?
