Girl Only Ate 3 Apples A Day For 8 Months. Five Years Later, THIS Is What She Looks Like!

#1

Meet Victoire Macon Dauxerre, an 18-year-old French student who was suddenly discovered one day on the street with her mother by a modelling agent.

#2

She was quickly thrown into the whirlwind that is the European modelling industry.

In order to attain her dream of being picked up by some of the world's most popular fashion magazines, she had to drop over twenty pounds and she had to drop it fast. Her solution? Only eat three apples a day for eight months straight.

#3

She worked extremely hard and shed the 22 pounds she needed.

After all, she had to fit into size 32-34 clothes by a fashion week event and nothing was going to get in her way.

#4

She made it happen though and was picked up for multiple fashion shows across many countries.

#5

Pictured here, she came in at a weight of roughly 100 pounds.

The horrifying thing is that she is 5'10″ tall!

#6

Due to her horribly deprived diet, she began to lose her period and even developed osteoporosis. She also had developed bulimia and anorexia.

#7

An all apple diet just doesn't have the nutrients one needs to function properly. The body will literally eat itself in order to try and repair bones and muscle. Ultimately her psyche was also pushed to the limit and she attempted suicide by her eighth month of modelling.

#8

So she quit. She just couldn't take anymore.

She wrote a book at 23 years old called "Never Skinny Enough. Diary of a Top Model," where she detailed the horror that is the modelling industry. She now talks to groups of young women in the effort to sway them away from the world of modelling.
