Ellie Goulding revealed that during her college years she was involved in an unhealthy diet that it even made her friends worry about her.
Speaking to British Glamour magazine, the 'Burn' hit maker admitted that once in her life she felt very uncomfortable with her figure that it made her develop an unhealthy eating regime.
"I remember being so badly addicted to sugar that I could eat two big Galaxy bars in one day - and nothing else", Goulding recalled to the mag via contactmusic. "I was terrified of eating potatoes or rice or any kind of carbohydrates, but I would still have loads of chocolate every day.
Her eating disorder became very serious that her friends worried over her chocolate addiction.
"It made no sense. My friends were so worried about me because I would come to their houses with bars of chocolate and when they asked what else I'd eaten that day, I would tell them, 'Chocolate for breakfast, chocolate for lunch and then an apple and a salad.'"
However, after some time, the platinum-selling artist managed to shift to a healthy lifestyle, which made her feel much better about herself.
"Now that my attitude to nutrition is balanced, I feel and look better. My skin is brighter and my eyes are brighter - and when I look at myself in the mirror, I've got far fewer hang-ups."
Ellie Goulding now sticks to vegan diet and workouts at the Barry's Bootcamp. She also runs regualry for 25 minutes to the gym. Her current healthy lifestyle actually boosted her confidence and well-being.
"Before, I had a flat bum, no boobs and not much shape," Goulding told Look Magazine via Daily Mail. "I'm way more womanly now. I'm a bit more confident with my body. I put it down to eating amazingly well. Now my body's different, my face shape is different and my eyes are brighter, too."
Due to Goulding's healthy lifestyle, Nike even chose her to be their brand ambassador last year.
