CELEBS WORK HARD TO STAY IN SHAPE — BUT ARE THEIR STAY-SLIM TRICKS REALISTIC FOR THE REST OF US?
By Anna Magee

Penélope Cruz

Crave-control pills 
“I can’t live without my Bs,” says the 33-year-old size 10 star. She takes B vitamins to control sweet cravings and improve her mood.

Reality rating 10/10 
“B vitamins help regulate metabolism,” says medical nutritionist Naomi Beinhart. “They also help stabilise blood sugar, making cravings for sweets far less likely.”

Mel C

Whey smoothies
The Spice Girl, 34, keeps her size-12 figure trim, her blood sugar balanced and cravings at bay with a breakfast blend of whey protein and water.

Reality rating 7/10
“Whey protein is filling, energising and can even help fight ageing,” says Naomi. “And pure protein eaten in the morning suppresses the appetite for the entire day.”

Trinny Woodall

Fat-flushing juice
After a fatty meal, the 43-year-old size-8 style guru drinks grapefruit or pineapple juice because the fruit acid stops the absorption of fat.

Reality rating 10/10
Er, could it get any easier? Trinny’s trainer, Brendan McCarthy, suggests opting for organic and sugar-free juices for maximum nutrient punch.

Pink

Detox day
For one day a week, size-10 Pink, 28, will only eat green foods to calm her digestion, absorb more nutrients and reduce cravings.

Reality rating 6/10
Pink’s trainer, Gregory Joujon-Roche, says: “Start the day with an apple, celery and cucumber smoothie and green grapes, have salad for lunch and steamed veg for dinner.”

Katie Price

Sauna squeeze
When size-6 Katie, 29, was preparing for a photo shoot, her trainer, GMTV’s Mark Anthony, advised her to reduce her daily two-litre water intake by 250ml each day for a week, and have saunas to reduce excess water.

Reality rating 2/10
Mark says it should only be done once a year – any more and you could wreak havoc on your kidneys.

Carly Zucker

Cut the caffeine
The size-8 WAG, 25, was told by her trainer, Paul Ellis, that coffee dehydrated her, making her moody and tricking her into thinking she was hungry.

Reality rating 7/10
Paul says: “Reduce food cravings by replacing coffee and tea with green tea.
