After being scrutinized online about her thin frame for quite sometime, Guliana Rancic decided it was time to speak publicly about the issue.
"Some people were saying, 'The cancer is probably back,' " Rancic told People. "And they were accusing me of every eating disorder. I thought to myself, 'God, if someone really thought I had an eating disorder, what a horrible way to approach it.' "
Rancic was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011 and underwent a double mastectomy that same year. Her recent weight loss is a side effect from the medication she is on.
"I'm sorry that some people think I'm disgustingly skinny, as they put it, but there's nothing I can do. I'm lucky that I even have the type of cancer that reacts to the medicine," Rancic told People.
The reality star noticed that she was losing weight, but her doctor from Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers in Denver, Colorado said the cancer fighting medicine is suppressing her metabolism.
"I look in the mirror and it's hard for me," Rancic told People. "I am really thin. I want to look fit and beautiful and sexy, and I can't."
Rancic told People that she is tired of her weight distracting people from her work, but she's a strong woman and isn't letting the cruel comments break her down.
