Famous Success stories
Like everyone else, celebrities often have to deal with unexpected weight gain throughout their lives. How do they manage to stay thin? The only difference between celebrities and normal people is that celebrities are often under enormous pressure to stay fit and thin – whether it be for an upcoming role, or simply to look their best when the paparazzi unexpectedly shows up. At the end of the day, it all comes down to one’s personal attitude and determination – so make a plan and stick to it!
- Katie Holmes
-
The new fiancée of actor Tom Cruise says that her family has had the greatest impact on her appearance. Since she comes from a family of athletes who are all very healthy, she has inherited their lifestyle as well. On Thanksgiving Day, for example, it has become a family tradition to go running before sitting down to a rich turkey dinner. Since exercise has always been a part of Katie’s life, she can afford herself small quantities of her favorite foods, such as Jelly Bellies, buttered popcorn, cookie dough, or Pretzels dipped in salsa.
- Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie spent several months on a special diet in preparation for the film Tomb Raider. The diet included steamed meat, soy milk and vegetables; she also had to quit smoking. (Angelina claims that she used to have nothing but cigarettes and coffee for breakfast every morning!) While preparing for her famous starring role, Jolie followed a special training regiment that included kickboxing, street fighting, canoeing, and yoga -- a routine that no doubt contributed to her body shape. She supplemented this workout routine with a healthy mixture of steamed bass, steamed beef, and vegetables, completely cutting sugar out of her diet and substituting milk with soy milk. Today, with her famous figure well-intact, she claims that she has never felt better in her life.
- Anna Nicole Smith

Actress and model Anna Nicole Smith is famous for having lost 69 pounds in eight months. She achieved these stunning results with the help of a famous weight loss product which she has since come to endorse. In addition to the six pills a day, in combination with a “colon-cleansing” laxative, she also modified her eating habits in order to effectively shed the extra pounds.

Other stars who have succeeded in shedding pounds and keep their new figures include Madonna, Janet Jackson, Cher, and countless others.
Weight gain does not discriminate. It can happen to a celebrity, it can happen to you or one of your loved ones. With a little discipline and motivation to look good and feel great, anyone can lose weight.
