Celebrity Weight Loss Plans - Your Very Own Celebrity Diet Plan

When we have eaten that whole bag of chocolate covered Oreos, and watched the latest episode of those glamorous skinny dancers on Dancing With the Stars, don't we all want to get our hands on those celebrity weight loss plans? I mean really, do they even eat real food? I have never seen an actual celebrity shopping at my local grocery store. I haven't even seen one at Whole Foods. Maybe they all hang out at Trader Joes.

Regardless, losing weight can be an uphill battle for many of us. I think that the main reason there are so many overweight and obese people in the US alone is because everything is so fast. Fast food on every corner beckoning us to help ourselves to a lifetime of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and depression. Our lives are too fast paced too. If you notice, our breaks are getting shorter, and whatever happened to more than one vacation every year at work.

We think we are relaxing when we stretch out in front of the television, but again, we are being bombarded with subliminal messages about what to buy, and what to eat.

Celebrities don't have to worry about their weight because they hire people to worry for them. They have professional trainers, nutritionists, and a host of people helping them to lose weight. They never have to go to the grocery store. Assistants do that too. If you watch MTV's cribs, their mansions all have workout rooms with professional equipment, and their houses are usually so big that it's exercise just to get from room to room. As everyday people, we don't have that luxury. Our homes are smaller, and sidewalks are becoming a thing of the past.

For us the answer to weight loss is to shut off the television. Cut off the cable and save $150 a month (at least!). Use the $150 to get yourself a gym membership, and your own personal trainer. Toss the oreos, and make salads. And not just iceberg lettuce and tomatoes with blue cheese either. Get yourself a good pair of sneakers and get outside for some fresh air everyday.

Get a large bowl. Buy one bag of fresh spinach, and one bag of the salad with all of the veggies and dark greens. Get a can of almonds, and a bag of edamame (soy beans). Buy some fresh apples and dried cranberries, and one of those roasted chickens in the deli section. One more thing, get a light vinaigrette dressing. My personal favorites are the raspberry vinaigrette, or the Asian ginger dressing. Mix everything together, and get yourself a large, huge glass of ice water. This can be lunch or dinner daily.

For breakfast, try a healthy cereal with low fat milk, or a green smoothie. Dinner can be a Lean Cuisine meal, or something sensible. The key is to make it for yourself. Lean protein, lots of veggies, fruit, brown rice, and more water. Fiber is filling, and you will not get cravings if you eat several balanced meals every day.

So flip the script, and change the way you live. Your attitude will shift, and you will gain more energy. Don't let others dictate to you how you should live your life. Set goals, lose weight, and keep progressing. Create your own celebrity weight loss plan for you!
