Tori claims her weight loss has to do with a combination of: having the swine flu, several rounds of antibiotics, nerve problems and migraines.
According to USA Today, Spelling, 37, blames swine flu, stomach pain, migraines and nerve problems for her weight loss. She says she had to take three rounds of antibiotics that caused severe stomach pain. “I’ve never had a great stomach, but (being ill) just completely tore up my stomach and broke down my immune system, and I’ve basically just been a mess ever since, stomach-wise,” she says. “It’s about rebuilding my immune system.”
Last year, tabloid rumors got so wild that it prompted the “90210″ alum to declare last fall on Twitter that she weighs 107 lbs.
“I’m a role model for a lot of women out there, so I hate that they say these things unwarranted, without any research and facts,” she says. “I think it’s doing a disservice to women out there that look up to any celebrity.”
