Default Prescott revelas Bulimia Battle

No, not RussP, big fat John.

Prescott Reveals Secret Bulimia Battle

Updated:17:27, Sunday April 20, 2008

John Prescott has spoken publicly for the time since revealing he suffered from bulimia while he was deputy prime minister.

Suffered bulimia for 10 years

Mr Prescott said he had found it difficult to admit to the eating disorder because of the "shame and embarrassment".
But after suffering with it for about 10 years, he said he managed to control it and stop it a few years ago. The doctors who treated him said his condition was probably due to stress.
The Labour politician, 69, has urged the millions of people who have the eating disorder to "not suffer in silence and be more open about it and seek medical help as I did".
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Rumour has it he also had amnesia at the same time and kept forgetting to throw up.

Some one "brought this up" in the conversation during Sunday Lunch today .

Not an appetizing image! Bonking the secretary while shovelling loads of tax payer funded pies down his gob, then throwing it back up.

I thought this was a joke thread.... Havn't seen the news this weekend. Been uber busy getting ready for exams etc at school.

Must have taken some guts to come public with this - I guess it was more likely about to break in the News Of The World and he came up with it...?
