Catherine Zeta-Jones losing weight

Catherine Zeta-Jones has lost 10 pounds!

The actress who recently announced she’s battling bipolar disorder and had a brief stay at a mental hospital apparently needed new costumes when she showed up for a fitting on the Louisiana set of her new movie Playing the Field.

“Catherine met with the wardrobe department for a few fittings, and her measurements had changed,” a source told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“She lost about 10 pounds and needed an entire size smaller.

“She said the weight loss was probably from the craziness of everything and the stress. She acted like she didn’t want anyone pitying her and no one really did.”

Meanwhile, CZJ is being encouraged to raise awareness of bipolar disorder in a documentary.

“Catherine is very interested in the idea both as a way of coming to terms with the condition and as a way of breaking down certain prejudices surrounding mental illness,” reveals a source close to the actress and husband Michael Douglas.

“Catherine has long had the intention of turning her hand to film making and this is something she feels passionate about.”
