The stars always look so fabulous, do they not? Both sorts of stars do. Celebrities too. OK, we do not see them while they arise in the morning or with a bad hangover, but if we do see them, they always look at the peek of physical fitness and dressed in perfectly fitting clothes. It is their work not just to act and learn their lines but to look good too.
most if not all of them have personal fitness coaches, dietitians and even chefs in order to help them tackle the flab, so it is not really so difficult for them as it is for us, but the penalty for gaining weight is more severe, they might not be offered much more work, which would mean falling out of the limelight and that would be a serious matter for any celebrity.
Therefore, it is not surprising that most stars have their own favourite tips for staying on top of the weight problem that faces most individuals every day of their lives. Here are seven celebrities’ pointers on how they accomplish it.
Jennifer Aniston: follows the 40:30:30 procedure of counting sorts of foodstuffs. That is:
40% of what she eats has to be slow-burning, low glycaemic foods like beans, root vegetables (like swede and potatoes), dark-green leaves (like cabbage) and fruit (such as bananas).
30% of what she eats has to be lean-to-fatless protein such as skinless chicken, tofu, turkey, ostrich, veal, fish and low fat dairy products.
30% of what she eats should contain essential fatty acids such as oily fish, nuts, seeds and olive oil.
Kate Hudson; placed on 60 pounds during her pregnancy but was determined to lose it especially after the media was so cruel to her about her size. She did it in four months by concentrating on eating only high protein, but small meals often and training rigorously. This sounds a lot like the Atkins diet, but it worked for her and now she looks better than ever.
Oprah Winfrey: applies a similar plan to Kate Hudson’s. She works out at least five days a week and attempts to eat mostly fish, nuts, fruit, beans, seeds, chicken and vegetables. She is particularly cautious to avoid, but not totally cut out, white sugar and white flour and last but not least, she does not eat after 19:00 hours.
Gwyneth Paltrow: has a routine that is similar again. She too avoids white sugar and flour, but follows a macrobiotic diet of vegetables, brown rice and very lean meat and fish. She does not consume any dairy produce at all and does yoga each day.
Madonna: also does yoga every day and follows a macrobiotic diet of organic vegetables, brown rice and fatless protein. She has given up junk food entirely.
Claudia Schiffer: will eat only fruit before midday and after noon she adds salad and steamed vegetables to her diet, She drinks lots of tomato juice and herbal tea and is especially fond of black grapes.
Christie Brinkley: is a strict vegetarian, who has also eliminated all forms of junk food from her diet. She snacks on sweet potatoes and if she puts on a few pounds, she goes on a crash diet of fruit juices.
Do not forget that these celebrities have paid and almost certainly still are paying thousands of dollars for this advice, so if one of these outline diets appeals to you, do some more research and try it out free of charge. It works for them as you can clearly see.
