Inside Megan Fox's Struggle to Gain Weight

Megan Fox looks pretty thin in her recent ad campaign for Armani--but don't worry, says her trainer, Harley Pasternak, she definitely doesn't have an eating disorder. In an interview with HollywoodLife.com, Pasternak reveals that the 'Jennifer's Body' actress really struggles with gaining weight.

"Do I worry about Megan getting too skinny? Yeah!" Pasternak said. "Believe it or not she has this really fast metabolism," Pasternak continued. "So her training is all about body toning and sculpting. With her its really about she's eating enough of the right things. People thought 'Oh she must be anorexic' but she's far from that!"

Fox gets upset when people question whether or not she's anorexic. "She gets frustrated at times because she's like 'I need to put on weight.' So she actually weight-trains to keep on that lean muscle tissue," he said.

Pasternek, who also trains Robert Pattinson, Katy Perry and Amanda Seyfried, then described the kind of training he does with Fox that results in her toned abs. "The key to Megan's abs is first of all genetics," Pasternak admitted.

"The second is that we train her abs on all three planes. It's not just about crunch, crunch, crunch. It's about working her body up and down and side to side and rotation. We train all three of her rectus abdominis, her obliques and her corset muscle to make sure that her abs are not just tight and strong but small. The corset pulls it all in," he concluded.

I think a more accurate title would be "Megan Fox Struggling to Gain Credibility". And yes, it will be a lifelong struggle.

she wasn't that skinny when she was on "two and a half men", her body was perfect back then. so her metabolism is faster now than 6 years ago? i don't think so.

Megan Fox Has ‘A Really Fast Metabolism’, Says Her Trainer

March 8, 2011 in Beauty & Body Image, Celebrity Quotes, Megan Fox by Versus

Megan Fox’s trainer recently opened up about the star’s shrinking figure – and he says that it’s not the result of a diet / eating disorder / excessive training, but of a very fast metabolism. From Hollywood Life:

“Believe it or not she has this really fast metabolism,” explains Harley. “So her training is all about body toning and sculpting. With her its really about she’s eating enough of the rightthings. People thought ‘Oh she must be anorexic’ but she’s far from that! In fact, Harley reveals, Megan gets very upset when she hears people think she has an eating disorder, especially since she struggles to gain weight. “She gets frustrated at times because she’s like ‘I need to put on weight.’ So she actually weight-trains to keep on that lean muscle tissue.”

Hmm… that’s quite interesting, considering that Megan once said that in order to lose weight after Transformers…

“I just stopped eating. I don’t eat very healthy anyway.”

and

“I’ll starve to death before I’ll cook for myself. I think I could survive a week without eating.”

What else did Megan’s trainer say?

The 5 factor fitness trainer went on to explain the kind of training he does with Megan to make her stomach toned and muscular. “The key to Megan’s abs is first of all genetics,” Harley says. “The second is that we train her abs on all three planes. It’s not just about crunch, crunch, crunch. It’s about working her body up and down and side to side and rotation. We train all three of her rectus abdominis, her obliques and her corset muscle to make sure that her abs are not just tight and strong but small. The corset pulls it all in.”

I think she's obsessed with Angelina Jolie. Got ps, did the tattoos but damn AJ went all saint and stopped eating altogether (or carried on using drugs) Megan wouldn't stop channelling AJ, now she wants to look like her idol: walking death
