Former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff regularly threw up in cricket grounds and restaurants as he battled bulimia early in his career.
As he embarks on a sporting comeback as a heavyweight boxer, Flintoff has revealed how lost 15kg during his struggle with the easting disorder.
"I used to be a really skinny kid, I used to be tall and skinny and I didn't drink, I didn't do much," Flintoff explained in a documentary to be aired in England later this month.
"Then I started putting weight on. I got to about 19 and a half to 20 stone.
"It was all a bit deeper than that because to lose the weight, I wasn't really sure how to go about it. I started being sick, I was sick a lot. I would eat and I would be sick.
"I would be doing it myself. I would put my fingers down my throat and everyone within the team hierarchy thought it was great because I was losing weight.
"I've thrown up in cricket grounds around the world, in restaurants, all sorts, and I lost about 15kg by doing that.
"It's not the right way to go, which I am very aware of. You start off doing it if you have a bad meal, you eat something you don't think you should have eaten or you have drunk too much.
"Then before you know it, even good meals you are getting rid of. It becomes a real habit. The only way really to lose weight is to train more and eat less, eat the right things."
