niobe 2 Report post Posted January 6, 2006 ... They walk everywhere, esp. in Paris, and tend to be more active naturally than are Amer. ladies, so they don't feel the need to go to a gym, for example. ...And if they can't walk somewhere because it's too far away, they take a bike, which is even better for the general well-being. Seriously, Europeans are getting fatter too, but they still have a different mental attitude towards genetically modified food, or towards refining things to make them taste the same everywhere, like e.g. flavored coffee á la Starbucks... Thanks for adding your personal view on this, Pitt-Lover. Get better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess 1,712 Report post Posted January 23, 2006 EOnline.comThe Answer BitchWith all the nutty celebrity fitness crazes, what's next? Sandra, New York--------------------------------------------------------------------------------A.B. Replies: Given that celebrities often spend more than two hours a day working out (it's the only reason why Usher isn't returning your True Star-soaked letters, I promise), they'll mostly be trolling for ways to avoid boredom on the treadmill. Stars will also continue their endless dodging of the less successful folk who pack their otherwise elite gyms, like Equinox or the Sports Club/LA.Overall, people of fame will simply carry on, pretending they didn't just eat a tomato leaf scrambled in seaweed flakes for breakfast again.Even the B-listers, like that roly-poly guy from Lost, are far from jolly when they work out. This B!tch has learned that Jorge Garcia melts his fat at the Easton Gym here in L.A., focusing on weight training with the furious grit of a man who still can't understand how Dominic Monaghan landed a date with Evangeline Lilly. Working out is a long, miserable slog for these famous people, and in 2006, they'll be seeking the same things they sought in 2005 and 2004: relief, variety, amusement and distraction.Sarah Silverman, Courteney Cox and her husband, David Arquette, have been toying with customized workouts on their iPods. Creator Grace Lazenby tells this B!tch that she introduced the product, called iTrain, just a few months ago, to help clients avoid the very boredom I've been discussing. Subscribers can log on to iTrain.com and download fresh workouts, barked by real live celebrity trainers, once a month. The workouts, which have Mac-user-friendly names like iTread or iClimb, combine cardio, stretching (all that good stuff) and focus on different exercises depending on a customer's favorite way to sweat. The workouts cost as little as 99 cents each, or you can sign up for a subscription."Silverman has been client of mine for almost four years, and she uses this a lot when she can't train with me," Lazenby tells this B!tch. "When she's doing a movie or a press tour, like she did with Jesus Is Magic, she uses the iTread workout and iSculpt ballet."Cox, meanwhile, uses the iClimb workout, Lazenby says. That one uses the elliptical trainer--sort of a stair climber with a sense of reason. Another trainer to the famous confirms the stars will mix up their workouts, combining all the dizzying crazes of recent yesteryear, including pilates, yoga, kickboxing, SmartWater. Stars may even--you might want to write this down--take classes with less famous people, doing varied routines that combine cardio, strength training, stretching and plenty of Eurobass.Actually, let me clarify: Stars might go for a select class, one conducted in what the Industry calls a studio environment."Dennis Quaid loves yoga," says trainer Michael George, who trains Quaid and has worked with Reese Witherspoon and Tobey Maguire. "He might not go to a gym class, but he might go to a yoga studio and take a class there."Right behind ya, Dennis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess 1,712 Report post Posted March 10, 2006 Page SIxMAN NONEATEREATING disorders aren't just for girls anymore. Dennis Quaid confesses in the new issue of Best Life that he battled "manorexia" in the mid-'90s. After losing 40 pounds to play Doc Holliday in "Wyatt Earp," Quaid says, "My arms were so skinny that I couldn't pull myself out of a pool. I'd look in the mirror and still see a 180-pound guy, even though I was 138 pounds." Quaid, now fit and elegant on the mag's cover, says, "for many years, I was obsessed about what I was eating, how many calories it had, and how much exercise I'd have to do."

cathmonast 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2006 I'm well endowed. I'm round but I wouldn't be thin for nothing else in the world. I feel great the way that I am and I have so much more to offer than my body. I just think that getting thinner and thinner those lollipop girls are showing girl that it is okay to stop eating or do something extremely dangerous such as snorting coke or crystal meth. I want to set a good example by being healthy and happy and having hair on my scalp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sometimes pass my trashy magazines on to my mom once I'm done with them, and the other day I gave her some and she was flipping through them and pointed to Nicole Richie and said "If that was my daughter, I would tie her down and force feed her the fattiest, most sugar filled, caloric foods I could cook up."(of course that might attitude might have something to do with my curvy figure as well, but at least I have boobs, right?)

Ruby 2 Report post Posted March 19, 2006 I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I miss J-Lo at times like this. She wasn't a stick and she didn't care (although I suspect she was quite thin in person). The best part was, men loved her body! If every hot guy in Hollywood was with someone that looked like her, I think we'd see a shift towards something more realistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's the story:I have a friend who works at the Ivy on Robertson...this friend said that Paris has to be watched after she eats there (grilled chicken salad) b/c she totally throws up her meal. The staff was instructed to take note when she uses the restroom. I'm not sure who instructed them...possibly Kathy Hilton. She's a total bulimic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GimmeSumSugar 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2006 I read an old National Enquirer today at work. The first thing I noticed was that 'weight' was a significant issue in it. Not only women but men also. Anyone seen to be vaigly 'out of shape' was treated almost as having some sort of major body disorder. The wording was so hyper as if it was a huge deal that somebody had put a few pounds on here and there.In the UK celeb mags don't tend to be quite as in your face as the National Enquirer but they still make weight an almost weekly topic, especially where women are concerned. The slant tends to be more sort of patronisingly 'helpful', like 'so and so celeb can help you lose weight through her wonder diet' and such. I'm sure many US mags are like that. It's just one of those topics that never goes away and it must be quite embarrassing for celebs to be constantly ridiculed for putting on a bit (or even a lot) of weight at different times in their lives.
