"Stacy London, style guru from TLC&amp;#x27;s What Not to Wear, is the latest celebrity to go public about a tough history struggling with eating disorders.People reports that Friday&amp;#x27;s issue will include an exclusive interview with 43-year-old London about her difficulty battling both anorexia and compulsive eating in her past. In the last week alone, we&amp;#x27;ve seen several high-profile people talk about their own private struggles in very public ways: Katie Couric talked about &amp;quot;wrestling with bulimia&amp;quot; on her new daytime show Katie, and just a couple of days ago, Lady Gaga posted pictures of herself in her underwear with the caption, &amp;quot;Bulimia and anorexia since I was 15&amp;quot;. As I&amp;#x27;ve read your comments throughout the week, most of you are glad to see them come forward, and those of you who&amp;#x27;ve ever dealt with body issues (hey, I hear you!) feel less isolated when you hear their stories. What timing that all of these celebrities are coming forward at once, no? Why do you think that is? What do you think when you hear that so many big names are struggling with the same thing that other women do? Do you ever think that their disorders may be a product of the spotlight, or they&amp;#x27;re just going through what women go through, regardless? One important thing: London&amp;#x27;s brave announcement adds one more eating disorder into the conversation: compulsive overeating, or food addiction. It&amp;#x27;s the most-overlooked disorder among young women. Don&amp;#x27;t know much about it, or worry it might be you? Read up about food addiction. Do you know anyone with food addiction? Had you heard of it before Stacy London announced it, or before we talked about it in Glamour? Photo: Courtesy of TLC"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
