Go Veggie for a Celebrity Body

We all remember the acclaimed Atkins diet. Tons of stars were raving about it circa 2001. The no carb plan still has plenty of devotees, but it really isn’t the healthiest way to slim down.

Besides, fad diets don’t work in the long run. The real secret to staying thin involves making lifestyle changes, not extreme dieting. A lot of celebs, such as Pamela Anderson and Carrier Underwood, have found success by becoming vegetarians. Cutting out meat probably sounds like a nightmare at first. No cheeseburgers? Swap the ground beef for a veggie patty and you’re good to go. See? That wasn’t so hard. Major dietary changes should be done gradually, so try to slowly wean yourself off of meat. The easiest way to start is with breakfast. Morning meats, such as bacon and sausage, are loaded with fat, calories, and salt. There are plenty of ways to jump start the day with lean proteins. Dairy products, including yogurt and milk, have protein in them. Fuel up on a bowl of cereal with skim milk, a small container of yogurt, and some fresh fruit. Never skip breakfast because that won’t help you shed pounds. Once you get used to a meatless breakfast, start looking for tasty meatless lunches. There’s no need to confine yourself to salads. Try veggie subs, veggie burritos, meat alternative deli slices, or spice things up with some falafel. Pretty soon you won’t miss meat anymore, and you definitely won’t regret dropping a size or two!

 

Khloe Kardashian Lops Her Locks

Khloe Kardashian isn’t quite as famous as her socialite sisters, Kim and Kourtney, but she certainly turned a few heads when she debuted her new cropped cut.

The reality TV starlet appears to have been inspired by singer Rihanna; it’s almost impossible not to notice the striking resemblance, especially since Kardashian, 26, subsequently dyed her hair red. We’re still waiting for the pop star’s reaction, and this could easily turn into a nasty cat fight. Khloe’s always struggled to find her own unique identity, so it seems a little odd that she’d try to set herself apart by mimicking someone else. We’re also wondering what her husband, Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom thinks of his wife’s bold move. Fans won’t have to wait very long because all the drama will come to light when the couple’s reality show kicks off soon.

 

Terrence Howard and Wife Michelle Ghent are Over

Michelle Ghent, wife of actor Terrence Howard, of Hustle and Flow fame, filed for divorce on February 2rd after only a year of marriage.

There’s no word yet as why the private, childless couple split. The paperwork cites “irreconcilable differences,” which could indicate any number of spousal issues. This is the second divorce for Howard, 41. His 13 year marriage to Lori McComma ended in 2005, though in 2001 Howard was arrested on a number of domestic violence charges. He pled guilty to a minor charge of disturbing the peace in 2002. Howard and McComma have 3 young children. Given Howard’s history, this could get a whole lot juicier.

 

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker Officially Call it Quits

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker’s very public split is finally coming to an end. The former power couple filed the final paperwork for their divorce proceedings in Texas, effectively dissolving their 3 year marriage.

The media darlings delighted the press throughout their relationship, but rumors of adultery sprang up early on. Longoria, 35, initiated the break up in November of 2010 after she discovered a series of racy text messages between Parker and his alleged mistress, Erin Barry. Sources are unclear as to whether Parker and Barry consummated the affair, but Longoria considered their dialogue alone a form of infidelity. Barry is the now ex-wife of Parker’s former San Antonio Spurs teammate Brent Barry. The Barrys parted ways in October of 2010, shortly before the Parkers.
