NEWSSam and Lindsay's 'Sick Contest'
Jan. 23 2009, Published 10:16 a.m. ET
The more heavily Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson weigh on each other’s minds, the lighter they are on the scale.
So much so, that Sam's friends tell OK! that it could become a problem.
“Sam has gotten so thin from Red Bull, cigarettes and stress related to life with Lindsay,” the DJ’s friend tells OK!.
“Lindsay is bad for Sam’s health.”
Since the two went public with their tumultuous relationship last May, each has competed to be skinnier than the other, says a pal of the 22-year-old actress.
“Lindsay is obsessed with her weight; it’s hard to be with another woman and not compare bodies,” the source tells OK!.
“And Sam herself loves being skinny and prefers Lindsay super-lean.”

But problems between Lindsay and her 31-year-old girlfriend have damaged the couple even further.
“Sam is disgusted by overweight people, but now she’s gotten too skinny because of stress,” adds her friend.
After a recent fight, “Sam went to the hospital because she had a panic attack and couldn’t breathe,” the pal says of the Dec. 21 ER visit.
While Lindsay’s rep tells OK!, “This story is not true; there is no competition. Lindsay is fine,” Sam’s friend insists, “I think they need therapy, so Lindsay can learn to be less clingy and take the pressure off Sam.”
