Hollywood’s Most Extreme Diets. Some A-Listers Will Do Anything to Get Skinny.

This is from the September 5, 2011 issue of OK magazine.

Gwyneth Paltrow.  If Gwyneth Paltrow wants to drop pounds fast, one favorite way is toss 3 week cleanse from Dr. Alejandro Junger. She has 2 liquid meals (soup or smoothies), a salad a day and no sugar, dairy or processed foods. She also works out with Tracy Anderson who has her do things like an hour or two of dance aerobics in superheated rooms daily. (Side note. Tracy Anderson just opened up a place in Watermill (in the Hamptons). I can’t wait to try out her studio and see what it’s all about.)

Angelina Jolie.  A Red Wine Diet. Angelina doesn’t eat much-a little of everything but not too much of anything. Soe days she doesn’t eat much more than a few nuts, a glass of red wine or whatever she picks off the kid’s plates.

LeAnn Rimes. She hits the gym at Equinox 4 times a week. She lifts weights, boxes, and cycles on other days. “Some days I do heavy weights with only 6 to 8 reps, and the other days I do light weights with 22 reps,” she’s said. Her meal pal is made up of protein, fruit, and veggies.

Victoria Beckham.  Total Portion control. Victoria follows the “Five hands” diet to get her ready for the spotlight. She eats 5 meals a day, each restricted to a handful of high-quality protein (like salmon, shrimp, tuna or eggs). Nutritionist Martica Heaer says she would equate a “handful” to about 3 ounces of protein, which is less than 190 calories per meal.

Britney Spears. Exercising at all hours. For Britney, she finds that hitting the gym after hours works best for her. She’s not a mrning person. She reportedly exercises for 3-4 hour stints; and to look her best on tour, she also ditched alcohol and junk food.

Anne Hathaway. Living on Greens and not much else.
