Mika Brzezinski, the co-host of MSNBC's Morning Joe, has opened up about her eating disorder - an overwhelming compulsion to overeat and overexercise.
In an interview with More magazine, the 45-year-old - who also reveals her struggles with food in her new book, Obsessed - explains how she previously kept her past a secret because it was 'too embarrassing'.
She said: '[As] the youngest in a brilliant family, always feeling like I couldn’t keep up... I thought eating was something I could control, unlike what I felt was a lack of intellect.'
'There were these constant stupid negotiations with myself: "I can eat the Domino’s pizza if I run 10 miles afterward," Ms Brzezinski explained.
'That’s what I’d do after bingeing — go for punishing runs.'

insight into why she is so crazy and presumes to lecture us
She could also eat a Ryan’s whole buffet line if she pole dances all night at Chicas Bonitas.
I also have a compulsive need to eat Pizza and exercise. I’m a Ninja Turtle.
Ah, so she does recognize there's a problem.
“Hello, I’m mentally ill. Now that we have that over with, let me come into your living room and lecture you about all the things that are wrong with you ...”
Frankly, I don’t care about her politics.
This seems like a good solution. Many athletes do just that: eat a lot then go and burn it off with exercise. For me that would be a straight up trade.
The guilt is uniquely liberal, though.
That explains it.
There is a reason she picked Dominos. Numero Uno makes her go Numero Dos.
I worked at Domino’s when I was a teenager. If you’re eating that soggy cardboard with ketchup and processed cheese-food, an eating disorder is likely the least of your problems.
There’s nothing wrong with Mika Brzezinski’s body. It’s her mind and what comes out of her mouth that concern me. The level of ignorant, unthinking liberalism that she spouts is astonishing.
"...you'd only have to run 1/2 mile if you ate my (名) 半ズボン; パンツ "
Well, I agree with her that she can’t control her lack of intellect.
Mika:
You are hot and hit it so.
You do not suffer an inferior intellect, it’s just that you couldn’t be more on so many issues.
If everything is an ‘eating disorder’ ... nothing is.
She works out so she can eat more. That’s not a disorder. Its a fairly reasonable calculated choice.

You’re wrong! Thinks have changed since then. Domino’s changed their recipe, very very tasty Pizza now. I like it better than Pizza Hut.

Agreed. Their thin crust pizza is amazing and the sauce/spices have some zing!
