lily allen lost weight because of heart murmur

British singer Lily Allen recently confessed that her recent weight loss (she shed 19 pounds in just six weeks) came after doctors ordered her to get fit after they discovered she had a heart murmur (a condition that causes the heart to make unusual sounds during the heartbeat).

“I found out I had a heart murmur about three months ago. I had switched doctors and just went for a routine check up, which is when they discovered I had this irregular murmur. I have been asthmatic all my life, but this was really quite scary. When they asked me how much exercise I did, I had to be honest and say hardly any.”

“I make sure I work out three times a week now, and I don’t hold back. It’s a hardcore routine and I’m usually in the gym for at least an hour-and-a-half.”

“I used to love nothing more than sitting in front of the telly with two packets of Ginger Nuts and two bags of milk bottle sweets - and I’d devour the lot. But this heart thing has made me cut back on all that kind of crap. I now find that, because I am looking after myself, I don’t feel like eating the bad stuff so much.”

“I really want to stress that I haven’t done this because I want to become some skinny minnie - I will never be like that. I just like being more toned, it has made me really happy and I know I will never be super skinny because I would never be happy. I don’t understand people who are crazy thin and deprive themselves, they must be miserable.” [Source]

Lily seems to really care about her health, so she should quit smoking too!
