Katharine McPhee said that she feared a 'relapse' in her eating disorders during her pregnancy.
"But feeling like there was a relapse after getting pregnant was really shocking and upsetting and concerning for me, because I was suddenly so obsessed with food, starting from this first trimester, and I had such a distortion of the way that I looked," McPhee explained. She revealed that she asked Foster to take pictures of her every day during the pregnancy, but now she looks at them and thinks,"Oh my God, why was I so hard on myself?"" actress said she ended up talking with a psychiatrist she had worked with in the past and learned that"it's really common for women who have struggled with eating disorders in the past to have almost a relapse, in some sense, when they enter pregnancy.
"Suddenly, the cues felt really different, and I didn't know how to interpret them," she said."When I did eat, I would feel really full and it was very confusing [and] made someone who felt like I had it figured out, the food issues, [feel like] suddenly I didn't have any of it figured out.
