Lily Allen's Abnormal Heart
Smile singer Lily Allen reveals that her dramatic weight loss is a result of an intense new fitness regime after being diagnosed with a heart murmur about three months ago.
Heart murmurs can be detected by a rushing or rumbling sound from the heart.
This usually indicates abnormal passages in or around the heart or a malfunctioning or leaking valve - however, the majority of heart murmurs are relatively harmless.
Allen told Grazia magazine:
"I found out I had a heart murmur about three months ago. I had switched doctors and just went for a routine check up, which is when they discovered I had this irregular murmur.
I have been asthmatic all my life, but this was really quite scary. When they asked me how much exercise I did, I had to be honest and say hardly any.
I make sure I work out three times a week now, and I don't hold back. It's a hardcore routine and I'm usually in the gym for at least an hour-and-a-half.
I used to love nothing more than sitting in front of the telly with two packets of Ginger Nuts and two bags of milk bottle sweets - and I'd devour the lot. But this heart thing has made me cut back on all that kind of crap. I now find that, because I am looking after myself, I don't feel like eating the bad stuff so much.
I really want to stress that I haven't done this because I want to become some skinny minnie - I will never be like that. I just like being more toned, it has made me really happy and I know I will never be super skinny because I would never be happy.
I was going pretty crazy back in the summer, drinking way too much and partying loads. But now I don't want to drink so much, I've been cutting back. I should also give up smoking, but haven't quite managed that yet."

Keep it up Lilly. Your outward appearance is very important to your inner health. There is no shame in wanting to look good.

nobody cares stop posting this, fuckin idiot
Spell "cigarette" correctly idiot
Remember the Lily Allen Vs Amy Winehouse feud? Look who came out on top. Amy will be dead before 2009.
Re: lovebrad –
He is so right. It's the pills that put spots on your liver and make you die a young age. Weed was given by God, not made in a
factory.
Good for her that she's getting a healthier lifestyle, but the part about hardcore work out is just BS. I have a heart murmur too and what my doctor told me was to NOT exercise too hard because it's bad for my heart. A little bit of regular exercising is good, but definitely not three times a week during one and a half hour! Nonesense!
I love her!
What a toss pot. She's justs embarassing herself with this crap. Why doesn't she record another album instead of trying to stay in the limelight with these stupid statements. SIZE 8?????? Yeah right!!!???? And I'm a size zero!!
Hmm so a few months ago she was whinging about being overweight and now she's skinny? Funny how "celebs" always blame huge weight loss on a medical condition. WHATEVER LILY, YOU'RE CONFORMING LIKE YOU SAID YOU WOULDN'T!!! FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!!!!!!
the worst thing you can do for a heart murmur is smoke and be around smoke..trust me i have it too,….. what a fucking liar
love her.
LAME!! its a heart murmur. not angina. dumbasses
soo lame. lamey lame lame. I bet you can't even hear it. keep taking diet pills, maybe you'll have a heart attack.
Umm…I have the same thing that was diagnosed years ago… It has nothing to do with lack of exercise. She did it b/c she felt the pressure to be thin. We all know that Lilly. It's o.k. to sell out sweetheart.
Who cares about her down here? Why is Perez the only one talking about that twat? I thought she hated giving interviews just for the sake of giving interviews… Dont u remember: ”Im a musician, thats what I do”… Well, no u dont.
Heart Murmers are harmless…I've had one all my life.
Doctors just like to diagnose it…it makes them feel like they achieved something.
Glad she gave up Ginger Nuts(?) and Milk Sweets(?)….what about the cigarettes you DUMB ASS?
I love Lily Allen!
Statistics show that it is better to be 100 pounds overwight than to smoke—-smoking is the number one worst thing you can do for ur heart…
It's nice to see that she's taking control of her life and doing something good for herself.
Pleeeeeeease… I have a heart murmur too. I've had it since I was a baby. It is NOT a big deal and certainly not "quite scary". She just wants attention any way she can get it.
everyone knows that brit's roll their own cigs… i guess except you?
Wait, she's asthmatic and is … SMOKING?
Oops, I meant TOKING?
Okay… uhmm sorry but I have a heart murmur and they do not affect you whatsoever. This is bull… I mean if she wants to get in shape, you should just say that, she shouldn't lie about why she is doing. She cares wayyy to much what others think.
SO FAT AND UGLY—- EAT THOSE SNACKS MUCHIES OR WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU CALL THEM U TELLYTUBBY
DIE BITCH DIE
GO AWAY
EVERYONE IS SO SICK OF YOU
ATTENTION SEEKING WHORE
ALL YOU DO SAY SHIT ABOUT OTHER CELEBRITIES
AMY WINEHOUSE MIGHT BE MESSED UP RIGHT NOW BUT IS A MILLION TIMES BETTER THAN YOU , YOUR DISGUSTING BODY AND YOUR HORRIBLE MUSIC
CHOKE ON A COCK OH NO ONE WANTS THEIRS IN YOUR MOUTH ..SO FINGER YOUR THROAT EVERYTIME YOU EAT..ATLEAST THAT WAY YOU WONT GAIN MORE WEIGHT YOU COW
XO
MDs also read Perez
To lose that much weight in such a short span is not good for someone with a heart condition, not to mention she is still smoking. (and she is asthmatic aswell what an IDIOT) why exercise if you're still going to smoke.
It's always the same with celebs saying that they don't and won't starve themselves, but we arent stupid, anyone that's tried to lose weight knows you really got to cut out a ton of food and exercise loads just to lose a little bit of weight, it's impossible to lose that much weigh without starving yourself - she is not a good role model at all, and so fake. Why not just admit you weren't happy with your weight and decided to lose it - instead of saying i need to be "healthy" ,starving yourself and smoking is not healthy.
she sucks, ive never liked her. she's just an annoying charver.
Re: UH-HUH –
You seem nice. Get out much do you?
STOP SMOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you can't cut back in one area, and keep doing wrong in another area, you HAVE to put together a total self-reinvention package. do you want to have empysema and/or heart disease when you're 40? and when you're 40, chances are your children will only be 10-15 years old!! you can't do that to them!!
You dumb ass. You have asthma and a heart murmur, and you prioritize diet over quitting smoking? Please die. Now.
ummm, why would she even START smoking if she was asthmatic. how dumb of her
ASTHMA & SMOKING?? OH I'M SO SAD TO HEAR SHE'S NOT FEELING WELL..? NO TEARS FOR THIS OBVIOUS MORON!! "I JUST CAN'T STOP". WELL DEATH WILL HELP WITH THAT, BITCH.
Because of a heart murmur?? A HUGE majority of the population has that and it has nothing with exercise, etc. I don't even think there is a particular reason why people even get it!!! Why are celebs so lame when they make up excuses??? If you are going to lie, atleast do your research before you make a comment that will make you look even worse than just telling the damn truth = YOU WANT TO FIT IN AND LOOK LIKE NICOLE RICHIE!!
most heart murmurs aren't very serious. my whole life doctors have randomly heard a murmur… but I am alive and well. "DOn't ride roller coasters" they told me, yet I did… actually, i jumped out of an airplane a couple months ago. "don't exercise too briskly" they said… then I ran a marathon. hurray to lily for getting healthy and living life in a diff. light. smoking, well I've been there as well. we start when we are young and feel invincible …. but quiting is hard, no matter how real our mortality becomes
I love lily allen, I knew she didnt lose all that weight to be a teeny cuz i heard here in an interview saying how unhealthy that is!!!!!
I'm so glad she is sticking to her opion, and I'm glad she's not partying so much!!!!!! She really did need to cut down
This is a joke. I am an invasive cardiovascular tech, I do this everyday. A murmur has *nothing* to do with weight loss or gain especially at her age. She looks great but it has nothing to do with diagnosing a murmur, which is NOT a big deal.
BS!
she needs to think of a better excuse than that. Heart murmurs, however irregular it is, do not require exercise! They're usually just leaks in the valves (normal! ..to an extent) …. and if it happens to be more serious, she should avoid excessive exercise or get surgery! a twat is what she is, to think we'd believe her excuse to want to lose weight…and to hope we'd pity her.
Lily- why not have to guts to admit you lost weight in order to look good? Don't give us all this crap about being forced to lose weight because of a heart murmur. The condition is only minor, and you weren't over weight enough to have affected your heart, anyway.
thats an lame excuse for getting as vain and narcistic as the people she trashes all the time…system got you hun,and its on time to admit it!somehow i can understand it…with that pressure in her youth…but stop beeing a liar to yourself.shes gotten a bad role model…yeah kids,get thin and you win!if you have to play the game,go and play it!…but dont bother us with lies.
Ever notice how many "asthmatic" celebrities SMOKE? HELLO!?! Dumbasses!
Re: UH-HUH – You've got problems lol.
funny thing but they actually prescribed me medical marijuana for asthma…hahaha…yay for california
heart murmer?? BULLSHIT! more like - 'i've seen how cool it is to swan about being cool and skinny and how much more money i can make from chanel promotion rather than 12 year old girls who see me as a role model' so i'll go against everything ive said before and fuck em all.. SELL OUT. she annoys me soooo much.
