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."

you're fucking insane, sorry. your morals are completely unrealistic.

we never would have built civilization to the point we're at without agriculture and work animals, you can't just turn around and call it immoral.

domestication of animals is a fact of life and has actively built humanity. deal with it and get a helmet.

i'm not gonna sit here and deny how the domestication of animals has benefitted people throughout history. but now a days it's no longer NECESSARY to use them. that's my point. technology has changed that. unfortunately, due to how unequal wealth and technology and access to things are in our society, some people don't have a choice to not use animals.

are you against guide dogs too
ladyvoldything 2nd-Dec-2012 04:54 pm (UTC)
oh god yeah i wish i had thought of this
alouds 2nd-Dec-2012 04:55 pm (UTC)
i think that dogs shouldn't be trained to be guide dogs. but for the ones who are already trained and engraved into living like that, that might get depressed or something if suddenly the person who needed to be guided said "ok you are just going to be a regular pet now", idk if those ones should automatically stop guiding. it really depends on if the animal would mind not doing something it has been trained so long to do. i'm not an animal psychologist so i wouldn't be able to answer that kind of a question, but yes i am against making ANYMORE dogs guide dogs.

so what about new generations of blind people

or any of the other myriad illnesses that use therapy animals

fuck them, right? they're unlucky enough to come after the last guide dogs die, so fuck those guys and their quality of life?

where did i say i didn't care about new generations of blind people? that's your assumption, not my position. why can't we create new jobs for humans as guides for blind people? and when we eventually eliminate money and move to a socialist environment, i'm sure people will come up with robots who can help out the blind. but we don't really need to be using therapy animals for when that day comes (if it already hasn't cause idk if that kind of technology exists or not, good thing to look into tbh)

i'm two days late to this thread but lmao i can't believe people seriously would advocate against training guide dogs (when there is evidence that being so highly trained and having an important ongoing purpose is beneficial for the dog), because a domesticated dog's right to lay around doing fucking nothing matters more than the quality of HUMAN life when it comes to providing services for those who are blind or otherwise dependent. talk about a ridiculous personal philosophy wow.
derrobitch 2nd-Dec-2012 05:01 pm (UTC)
god you are so fucked up. how can you sit there and lecture anyone on being immoral or unethical when you'd be perfectly happy to leave future generations of blind people helpless because 'oh we can't ask the doggies for permission so it's wrong!" because who cares about all the blind people who NEED those dogs to live semi-full lives anyway. get a grip girl.
