Amanda Bynes is slamming reports she had an eating disorder, insisting her dramatic weight loss was the result of an illness. The actress lost a significant amount of weight last year, sparking fears she had developed an unhealthy diet regime.

But she explains, "I came back from Lovewrecked and started feeling really tired and I couldn't keep weight on. It turns out I had mononucleosis. It's unrealistic to be that thin. The only girls who are (that thin) have admitted to using drugs or having an eating disorder. I'm so against it. People should strive to be happy with who they are and not be obsessed with how they look."
