Holly Hagan on that corseting trend

How far would you go for the perfect hour glass figure? Geordie Shore's Holly Hagan has embarked on a shocking new weight loss regime – Corseting, a practice that involves wearing a tight corset for 23 hours a day, 7 days a week until it moves her ribs & internal organs to leave a smaller waist.

“You breathe in & it’s really constricted, but if it gets me a smaller waist in the end… Who doesn’t want to look like a cola bottle?” Umm..

Her inspiration? Kim Kardashian who's waist size measures 26 inches.

"Everybody loves Kim Kardashian’s waist, so I looked into it & corsets work perfectly as you can see."

 “Yeah, it moves your ribs if you do it too often. But it isn’t dangerous. I only want to lose a bit – don’t think it would touch the organs. I don’t do it to the extreme”

I beg to differ Holly, & so do the doctors slamming the trend, saying it could potentially be very dangerous - if abdominal muscles are compressed, the diaphragm moves & can cause respiratory problems & low blood pressure.

Holly didn't consult a doctor before she embarked on this ridiculous regime. In her opinion, she’s decided that the end result is worth it to get that ‘cola bottle figure’ of a 21 inch waist that currently measures 26.5 inches.

Internal organ damage

Holly explained: "I'd like to be 24 inch but that's like Victoria's Secret models. Maybe 25.5 inch? I think it comes down to the fact you're restricted in eating as well. It restricts your food intake - you feel full up because if your belly expands you feel uncomfortable."

I'm sorry Holly, but there's nothing sexy about this...

This however is

Personally, having worn a corset for just an hour on a photo shoot, I felt relieved to take it off. I’d rather run the legs off myself than go through this agonising painful process.
