Former Disney starlet Hilary Duff has opened up about her constant struggles with weight and confessed that she has overhauled her attitude towards it, which has enabled her to enjoy her body as it is. 

During a new interview with ELLE magazine, the 27-year-old singer explained that she's approaching accepting her appearance in a different way and appreciating the fact that she's strong and trying not to get caught up in the expectation that celebrities should be skinny:

"I'm in the same struggle you're in every day. It's a tough question, too, but however it comes across, it comes across. I just tell myself, 'I'm 5'2", I'm really fit, killing it in the gym, and doing crazy things.' I love to work out, but I'm just not that concerned with being the skinniest person."

"I'm not a model; I'm an actress. I always feel like I'm in the five to ten pound struggle, but my life is so busy. I'm just not that concerned, really. I'm normal and I'm perfectly happy being that way. Some weeks I'm like, 'Man, my clothes are fitting so good' and then some weeks I'm like, 'I need to cut back on a few things,' but that's it. I don't fall into the trap of having to be 110 pounds."
