Skinny Mad?
What is it with celebs going skinny mad? Jennifer Anniston, Posh Spice, Lara Flynn Boyle, Renee Zellewegger, and most recent victim to the slimming frenzy, Geri Halliwell, are all wearing their stick thin arms, prominent ribs and concave stomachs like badges of honor on the red carpet. It appears Hollywood's obsession with the motto you can never be too rich or too thin isn't going away.
Its been well documented that many stars are using The Zone Diet, a diet with low (or no) carbohydrates and high protein to shed the kilos. This allows fast, furious (and many doctors argue), very unhealthy, weight loss. The body is deprived of vital nutrients and vitamins with a derogatory effect on health, including loss of concentration, muscle mass, moodiness, weakness, an increase in risks for cancer and heart disease, and in some cases, infertility. Hormones are thrown out of sync as the body defends itself by going into "starvation mode", storing fat and depleting muscle.
Fad diets are rarely the answer to long-term weight loss. Research shows 95% of people gain their weight back within 2 years of fad dieting. Following a sensible, balanced diet and exercise routine encourages healthy, long-term weight loss.
Will the skin and bones fad end? Fortunately, there are still some gorgeous starlets who know their curves are their currency, and refuse to whittle their womanly figures. They deserve an honorable mention for proving that you can be too thin (but never too rich!).
Jennifer Lopez - she's sultry and every inch a woman. She may have shed some weight, but she looks fit, strong, healthy AND still has THAT butt.
Michelle Williams - The Dawson's Creek babe is sumptuous and plush.
Sophie Dahl - Dangerous curves ahead! This sexy supermodel is famous for strutting the catwalks as a GASP size 14!
Catherine Zeta-Jones-- her beauty is reminiscent of old Hollywood glamour, where curves were de rigueur - think Marilyn Monroe.
Emma Bunton -one Spicey who's comfortable in her own skin and resisted the weight loss / gain rollercoaster.
Kate Winslet- Defies Hollywood, making no apologies for being a curvy lass. And she looks hot.
