Vegan Anne Hathaway flaunts 25-lb weight loss
Actress Anne Hathaway, who lost 25 pounds on a crash diet for the film, "Les Misérables," looks sporty and sassy in the January 2013 issue of Glamour.
The slender 5-foot-8 Anne dons a white tank top and black underwear that accentuate her lean thighs. Hathaway, 30, admitted she essentially starved herself to look the part of the emaciated Fantine in the tragedy, "Les Misérables."
"I had to be obsessive about it; the idea was to look near death," Hathaway told Vogue. "Looking back on the whole experience, it was definitely a little nuts. It was definitely a break with reality, but I think that’s who Fantine is anyway."
Anne lost 10 pounds before shooting began, and then lost another 15 pounds during a two-week break in filming by eating only two thin squares of dried oatmeal paste a day. Hathaway's competitive personality enabled her to stick to her extreme low-calorie diet.
"I like to fight for a job," she says. "You feel like you've emerged from the scrap, and you're like, 'OK, this one's mine. Did it. Done.' "
Transforming herself physically is nothing new for the dedicated Anne, who worked out five days a week to play Catwoman in "The Dark Knight Rises." In addition to gym workouts, Hathaway underwent stunt training, did strength exercises as well as 90 minutes of dance every day.
Anne, who switched to a vegan diet while training for "The Dark Knight Rises," has really embraced the plant-based eating plan.
"I don't go the soy-meat route; I have a really plant-based diet," she said. "So I wind up cooking at home a lot. Kale is amazing. Spelt [a kind of wheat] pasta is amazing. I can't do the white-flour stuff. It makes me really ill."

nope bye
maybe if you had half the compassion for people that you have for animals you'd realise how FUCKED UP it is to compare meat eating to sexism, racism, the holocaust, rape and child molestation. the fucking nerve of anyone to compare meat eating to any of the travesties i mentioned. get a grip.
you are exactly what people are talking about when they say they hate militant vegans. i'd suggest YOU read a thing or two about how privileged a vegan diet is and the completely valid reasons why people can not/will not become vegan. if anyone needs educating, it's you bew
not everyone has the CHOICE to be vegan these days. and i never once said how veganism doesn't intersect with class cause it does...which is one of the hugest reasons some people just CAN'T be vegan. the fact that there are some people with health problems who can't survive being vegan is a problem as well. this is even more reasoning for those who are privleged enough to be vegan because if humans spent more time on developing ways for vegans with health problems to survive on a vegan diet the world would be a better place. but because a vegan lifestyle is not the majority, that won't happen unfortunately. those who can't afford to be vegan (health/economically wise) THOSE people have a legitimate reason to not be vegan cause their choice is ripped away. a vegan lifestyle is very privileged but if it was more widely accepted it would make those who ARE more economically challenged able to be vegan easier, and the interest would move toward the medical community to develop ways for those with health problems. it's a process that starts WITH those who ARE privleged enough to be vegan. as far as people with ED, thats a problem in itself than only professionals can help and since im not a psychologist idk how to help those with ED.
Is this the "right" way to educate people about veganism then.
Maybe it is rape, and that thought might make me grimace slightly at my next cup of chobani strawberry greek yogurt.
My point was you were saying the annoying vegans are the ones that go about 'educating' non-vegans in the wrong way, and here you are throwing out the shock tactics like a PeTA p.i.t.a.
THIS IS WHY PEOPLE SAY VEGANS ARE ANNOYING. THIS IS WHAT THIS WHOLE THREAD IS ABOUT. You probably used to be a reasonable person, and now look! No wonder
what
the
hell
