Lena Dunham
‘Girls’ alum Lena Dunham lost weight after a medical treatment in an effort to control her endometriosis. Losing some pounds was apparently something that the public liked, but she saw it in a very different way. In an Instagram post, the actress wrote: "It isn't some sign I've finally given in to the voices of trolls. My weight loss isn't a triumph. I feel I've made it pretty clear over the years that I don't [care] what anyone else feels about my body. I've accepted that my body is an ever-changing organism, not a fixed entity.” In fact, later on Dunham admitted to feeling “the happiest” after gaining some weight. Also on Instagram, she wrote: “At 32: I weigh the most I ever have. I love the most I ever have. I read and write and laugh the most I ever have. And I’m the happiest I’ve ever been.” - 11/11

You can't work when you're hungry, you know?"
