Christina Applegate details anorexia battle while on 'Married… With Children'

Christina Applegate says she starved herself for years while starring as Kelly Bundy on "Married… With Children" from 1987 to 1997, a struggle she recounts in her memoir "You with the Sad Eyes." She writes that she "dug herself into a hole with that character, though," and felt she "had to be skinny." Applegate describes extreme eating habits, writing, "If I was going to eat something as horrendously huge as a bagel, I would scoop it out and maybe have half of it, or half of a half." She adds that "sometimes I’d punish myself and wouldn’t eat at all.
