Courtney Love claims her macrobiotic diet made her fat.The former Hole singer gained weight by binging on macrobiotic food, and only achieved her current slim figure by locking her fridge and replacing meals with diet shakes.Courtney told People magazine: "I gained 40 to 50 pounds on macrobiotic food. "I did a photoshoot for Italian Vogue and realised I was 182lbs. At the time I had Gwyneth's cook who does macro food."I thought, it can't make me fat - he's Gwyneth's cook! But I saw those pictures and thought 'Oh my God!' 182 lbs. does not look good on me. Nothing fit."I put the non-Photoshopped pictures on my fridge and had a lock fixed on it. My daughter Frances has her carbs in one drawer. I don't know where it is. I drink shakes and exercise my butt off. No carbs - two shakes and a fish meal. Fish and broccoli really does work!"Now the widow of Nirvana rocker Kurt Cobain is selling her pre-diet clothes to raise money for charity.
