The IV Drip Diet ... WTH?

This dangerous cocktail is said to keep the patient alive while starving her so she can fit into that size zero.

Donatella Versace's daughter Allegra was the talk of fashion's Annual Night of the Stars last night -- and not because she was hobnobbing with JLo and Marc Anthony, but because of how skinny she looked standing next to them. She's just another reminder that the super skinny trend is still alive and reaching alarming new heights
Designers at this year's Fashion Week reportedly told models "the look is anorexic. We don't want you to be it, we just want you to look it." A particularly emaciated runway season proved that most took these words to heart. One look at television's "90210" and you'll see that Hollywood's got its own set of skinny standards. But here comes the absolute shocker: Girls are not using the cabbage soup or lemonade diet to lose weight -- they are hooking themselves up to an IV and literally starving themselves ... with the help of an IV drip. Yes, an IV drip!

Known as the "banana bag" to industry insiders, the drip releases multivitamins to "starve the patient but keep them alive" for 2-4 weeks at a time. The drips are designed for alcoholic patients in hospitals who are undernourished from drinking more than they eat, but they were reportedly getting snapped up this year at NY Fashion Week at a rapid pace and now sources say A-listers are hooked, too. Some of the most well-known faces in the world are reportedly on "banana bags right now behind the walls of their gated mansions." (No, we're not making this up!)
The next time you fantasize about being a size two, think about the extreme suffering these women and young girls must be going through. Is it worth it?

JLo looks like she hasn’t lost all of her baby weight yet.
Duh, she just had twins. It makes her look more real to me than those chick who are automatically back to a size 2. At least she’s not afraid to show of her sexy post baby body with that form fitting dress.
As for the story, really why do people want to look that skinny?? It’s disgusting and so sad. Clothes don’t even look good on girls that skinny. I wish they could understand what they were doing to their health. I knew a girl in high school whose mom had been anorexic for years and then when she had kids it took such a toll on her body that she died soon after her twins were born. Her death was a direct result of being anorexic for so long. So sad.
