Whenever I have a party or event on the weekend and I’m feeling a little frumpy and bloated, I tend to increase my cardio and lower my salt and dairy intake.

This doesn’t make me lose actual weight but does help give a slimmer appearance and reduce bloating. I also get a spray tan! You’d be amazed at the difference tanned skin can make.

Here’s a video by youtube weight loss guru Sarah Dussault who gives her top five ‘weight loss by the weekend’ tips and explains how and why the tips work!

As you probably know by now, fat loss depends a lot on what you eat. You can gain or lose based on what you eat, so you probably want to pay attention. You can be in for some serious issues with your diet plan if you eat too much at night. You can also be gaining fat if you eat a lot of rice and high sugars.

To lose fat you have to eat a lot of natural, organic foods with just some rice and meat. Many night meals are going to wreak havoc on your body and you’ll gain a log of fat, especially if you take in a log of artificial carbs. The ideas surrounding fat loss, body shaping, and weight reduction are all very simple. We can say that if you put too much in, you’ll hang too far out.

Then if you eat less and eat healthier you have the opportunity to lose fat and look outstanding. By pairing healthy eating habits with some good resistance training now you’ll make some serious progress with belly fat. Professional body builders use intervals plus nutrition to keep a body fat level of less than 10 percent all the time.

All this is done while we build muscle too. It looks easy to some, and in some ways it really is easy. For our efforts we get to exhibit our bodies year round and people wish that they looked the way we look. Here’s the simple three step system I want you to try as part of your nutritional program. You’ll find a simple way to determine the optimal calories you need to eat in order to lose the most fat.

1. Eat better food by getting rid of sugary things and replace them with nuts and fruits.

Don’t believe the hype that says that fruits will make you fat. The contrary is true because the nuts and the fruits will help you shed pounds.

2. There are free online web sites that will help you count calories. Use them to get some guidance.

3. When you find that you’re not losing the kind of weight that you should be losing, cut your food by about 300 calories. As long as you’re losing weight there’s no need to change anything.

Here’s an article from CelebrityFix about celebrities and the extreme diets theyve tried. I know some of the information isn’t accurate or up to date but just thought I’d repost. Also, whoever wrote it is kind of mean

Fancy being a superstar? Not if you appreciate eating three square meals a day, you don’t.
Many stars would like us to believe they “eat like a horse” and just have a “naturally fast metabolism”. Truth is, most of them haven’t had a decent bite to eat in decades.

With teeny tiny Miranda Kerr recently raving about the benefits of coconut oil, and popsicle mum Victoria Beckham starving off the baby weight as we speak, we thought we’d take a look back at some of the craziest diets ever undertaken by Hollywood’s hungry waifs.

So… Who’s eating cookies to shed the kilos? Who lets the colours of the rainbow dictate her diet? And who has her face analysed by an expert to determine her nutritional needs?

Victoria

eckham -The Five Hands Diet

To shed her Harper Seven baby weight, Vic reportedly only ate five handfuls of food a day, snacking on as little salmon, tuna and scrambled eggs as she needs to, you know, stay alive.

The Eat Like A Bird Diet

Before the baby, Mrs Beckham apparently lived on a strict diet of soya beans, strawberries and lettuce. Because that diet wasn’t weird/crazy enough, she also drank two pints of algae and a seaweed shrong>The Baby Food Diet – Jennifer Aniston

Well, this is one way to control your calorie in-take. Baby food is tasty and packed with enough nutrients… for babies. To quote Jen’s Horrible Bosses co-star, “That’s not a proper meal!”

According to reports, Reese is another fan of toddler-sized portions.

The Cookie Diet – Snooki

Booze-hound Snooki credits her stunning (!!) figure to a diet of six 90-calorie cookies and a small meal each day.

The Spinach Leaf Diet – Amanda Seyfried

Amanda’s going to extremes to stay thin… only eating raw foods (mostly spinach and some seeds).

The Coconut Oil Diet – Miranda Kerr

Miranda has four teaspoons (not tablespoons, as was first reported) of coconut oil per day, drizzled over salads and with meals.

The Grapefruit Oil Diet – Jennifer Lopez

Another fan of oils, Jenny from the Block reportedly carries around a vial of grapefruit oil. The aroma is said to affect her liver enzymes, causing fats to be broken down and burnt off. By “is said to”, we mean, “there is no scientific evidence to support this

The Raw Food Diet – Uma Thurman

Raw food contains enzymes that boost energy. These enzymes are destroyed during cooking… so Uma reportedly eats everything raw. Even her meats.

The Facial Analysis Diet – Kate Winslet

Apparently, Kate has a professional analyse the lines, tone and texture of her face, determine her dietary needs and prescribe one of 9 eating plans. Um…

Kim Cattrall – The Fish Facelift Diet

Eat salmon three times a day, and you’ll look like you’ve had a facelift! (But that’s probably because you’ve had a facelift).

Beyonce – The Master Cleanse Diet

Beyonce wanted an Oscar really, really bad. In preparation for Dreamgirls, she drank lemon/lime juice mixed with maple syrup, water and Cayenne pepper and consumed no solids for ten days. And Jennifer Hudson got the Oscar.

Demi Moore -The Master Cleanse Diet.

Beyonce isn’t the only celeb who’s dabbled in the lemonade diet. Demi and husband Ashton Kutcher recently tried the cleanse, tweeting regular updates. A couple that cleanses together, stays (skinny) together.

Kate Beckinsale -The Sundowner Diet

Kate’s Underworld character may be nocturnal, but her appetite is not. She doesn’t eat carbs after the sun goes down.

Kylie Minogue – The Grapefruit Diet

To keep her petite figure, Kylie reportedly consumes half a grapefruit before all meals (it’s said to help speed up the body’s fat-burning ability).

Gwyneth Paltrow – The Macrobiotic Diet

They say Gwyneth only eats 100% natural foods, so nothing processed, and no meat, fish, eggs or dairy. Um… so what does she eat?

The Colour Diet – Christina Aguilera

Every day has its colour — white, red, green, orange, purple, yellow or rainbow — and Christina only eats that colour food on that day. Judging by her radical transformation, we don’t think Miss Aguilera’s combined this diet with portion control.
