Allison Mack Details Extreme Diet and Fasting to Stay Between 105 and 107 Lbs During Time in NXIVM
Published By admin
Allison Mack detailed the “pretty extreme” conditions she lived in as a member of NXVIM, including a commitment to stay between 105 and 107 pounds.
On the third episode of the “Allison Mack After NXVIM” podcast, Mack, 43, recalled taking “one-minute” cold showers every morning before she weighed herself to get “an accurate read.”
“I would write down everything I was going to do and at what time I was going to do it and then how it related to a character trait that I was trying to build in myself,” she explained, revealing she had to get permission from NXVIM leader Keith Raniere for her daily schedule . “Every single thing that I did was related to some purpose of my character building.”
One thing that was very important to Raniere, who posed his organization as a women’s empowerment group, was Mack’s weight. Podcast host and journalist Natalie Robehmed noted that Mack, who is 5 ‘5, was “significantly underweight” during her time under Raniere’s watch.
“To achieve this absurd goal weight, Keith put her on a 500 calorie a day diet, less than a third of what’s recommended for an adult woman, basically a starvation regimen,” Robehmed explained.
Mack, meanwhile, said she was not allowed to eat after 5 p.m.
“I was running 6 miles a day. I was really into half marathons, so I was running at least 6 miles on 500 calories,” she continued. “I was very into yoga, so I was doing yoga. I did yoga every morning for about six years.”
Mack’s breakfast would be “kabocha squash, plain nonfat Greek yogurt, a little bit of honey, a little bit of almond butter, and maybe some blueberries,” she recalled. Lunch was a salad and dinner was “glass noodles with kale, jalapeno peppers, and more kabocha squash,” Robehmed said.
