Māsa Takahashi says her weight once fell by 38 kilograms
Japanese broadcaster Māsa Takahashi has described major changes in her weight in a video released by the Beauty Stadium YouTube programme.
She said she weighed 75 kilograms in her final year of middle school and was diagnosed with fatty liver in fifth grade.
Takahashi said she later dieted to about 55 kilograms after a health check told her to lose weight.
After joining Fuji Television, she said, severe stress left her unable to eat, and her weight fell to 37 kilograms.
That was a 38-kilogram drop from her heaviest weight, she said.
Takahashi said rapid weight loss left her with loose skin, a gaunt appearance and reduced muscle, and that returning to a typical weight did not restore her body shape.
Separately, a recent Instagram photo of Takahashi drew both supportive comments and concern about how thin she looked.
