Hayden loves apples and it shows! She eats an apple a day, not to keep the doctor away, but to keep Jenny Craig away. Yes, eating apple before meals may help to melt pounds away. Fiber-filled fruits help to satiate hunger, which probably results in lower calorie intake from the meal. In addition to apples and pears, other fruits that are good sources of fiber include strawberries, raspberries, and peaches. Fiber takes longer for your body to digest compared to other energy forms. Women should try to get at least 25 grams of fiber per day in their diet.

This girl has done every diet in the book it seems! Jennifer Aniston is believed to have tried this diet, called the coconut. It works on the principal of eating more fat – coconut oil – to lose fat. The diet plan includes plenty of coconut oil, cod-liver oil supplements and traditional fats such as butter, egg yolks, meat fats and lard. The claim is it will lead to quick and easy weight loss, as well as boosting the immune system. However, a diet high in saturated fats can damage the heart. No worries for Jen though, Brad already did that.
