Beyonce did the Master Cleanse diet to lose weight for her role in the movie Dreamgirls. Adrian Brody ate very little to play his role in The Pianist. It seems the movie stars will go to extremes for a role in a movie--or simply to stay thin. Some have even resorted to clenbuterol, which is a horse asthma treatment and can be lethal when taken by humans. At best, diets like the master cleanse provide short-term weight loss. However, there are some celebrity weight loss tips that are practical and even healthy.

    Jessica's Small Meals Approach

  1. Jessica Biel

    Jessica Biel simply has made healthy eating a way of life, not something she does to temporarily lose weight. Maintaining her weight without yo-yoing, Jessica avoids foods that contain sugar, salt and processed flour, as well as dairy. What is more important is that she eats small meals every 3 to 4 hours in order to keep her blood sugar levels steady. Additionally, Jessica exercises intensely almost every day of the week. While your diet and exercise program doesn't have to be so rigid, take cues from her small meals of healthy foods and exercise daily.
  2. Jennifer's Everything in Moderation

    Unlike Jessica Biel, Jennifer Lopez does not cut out certain foods--she just has less of them during her meals, and tries to avoid eating too many simple carbohydrates like white bread and pasta. However, she does not ban them from her diet. For exercise, Jennifer does circuit training, which center around 2 to 3 minutes of strength training then followed by 3 to 5 minutes of aerobic exercise, and then moves to another form of strength training. For instance, you could engage in squats, then jog in place, and then move on to crunches, then jumping jacks, and so forth. This keeps you muscles challenged and burns more calories than either form of exercise alone.
  4. Conquer Emotional Eating like Valerie Bertinelli

    Weight loss is not all diet and exercise; you also have to mentally prepare. Recognizing the source of stress in your life, past troubles and feelings of guilt are all part of the process. You also need to ask yourself if you turn to food for comfort or to avoid dealing with problems. If so, then you might be an emotional eater like Valerie Bertinelli. This actress admits that she first had to deal with her divorce and raising a son on her own. Once she did that, she asked what she wanted for herself. Hence, you should lose weight for yourself and your good health, not for anyone else. Valerie found support by joining Jenny Craig which had practical plans that this busy mother could follow long-term.
