At (huge) request, here’s a post on supermodel Gemma Ward’s weight gain & desire to quit modelling – The Daily Telegraph reports:

SUPERMODEL Gemma Ward (22), the butt of attacks on an international fashion website for gaining weight, has revealed through her agent that she has no plans to return to her glittering career.

A spokeswoman for modelling agency Viviens said Ward, who is based in New York, had no immediate plans to return to the industry.
“Gemma hasn’t committed to returning to modelling any time soon,” she said, adding that Ward had the agency’s full support.

This is not the first time Gemma faces the “weight gain!” headlines – after presenting a skinny figure for years, in 2007, Gemma appeared in a Chanel runway show wearing a bikini and revealing a non-skinny, slim and curvy figure (for a model) – here’s a skinny Gemma vs curvier Gemma:

At the beginning of 2009, Gemma’s weight was an issue again, since she was spotted in a bikini after gaining a visible amount of weight. At that time, sources were saying:

“GEMMA Ward, the strikingly thin model who once captivated the international fashion scene, has piled on weight as she continues to struggle with the loss of friend Heath Ledger” (who was rumored to be her lover)”

You might remember that 35 year-old Alanis Morisette lost weight last year – People Magazine has a detailed story about it:

Morissette is proud of her new, fit body – because, for the first time, she achieved it in a healthy manner. In addition to her workout regiment, Morissette, 35, follows a mostly vegan diet inspired by Dr. Joel Fuhrman’s book Eat to Live. “I’m eating like an adult rather than like a 7-year-old at a candy store,” she says. “Now, around food, I can be trusted.”

The star’s eating issues began in her early teens, when the budding singer was told by a music exec that she had to lose weight if she wanted to succeed. She quickly took the criticism to an extreme, turning to anorexia and bulimia. “I’d go up and down at least 20 lbs. fast – sometimes in two weeks,” says Morissette, who became “covert, lonely and isolated.” After years of feeling helpless, she reached a turning point at age 17 when a friend “followed me to the bathroom,” she says. “I just started sobbing. She held me, and that was the beginning of the end. I took myself to therapy.”

But Morissette insists there was no heavy emotional issue behind her weight gain last year – not even her highly publicized 2007 split from fiance Ryan Reynolds… “Any breakup I’ve been through, the weeks following are fragile,” she admits. “But when I go through emotional shifts in life, I actually don’t eat as much.” So what was the cause behind the curves? Simply having fun on the road. “I was eating Italian food at two in the morning, drinking wine and margaritas,” says Morissette, who dubbed this period her “Indulgence Tour.” “It was the most fun I’ve ever had! But I didn’t want to stay there…”

[Inset information] The Book. Morrissette’s “redefining moment” came when she discovered Dr. Joel Fuhrman’s diet, which stresses nutrient-dense foods such as cucumbers and collards. “It was a big lifestyle change for me.”

Her Meals. The singer starts out with a spinach banana smoothie and then digs into a kale salad for lunch. For a snack, she’ll have her favorite grapefruit.

Mini indulgences. “If I’m PMSing and I really need chocolate, I’ll eat the chocolate.”
