Today, trainer Russ Howe shows why these diets don't return great results and why they often leave you in a position worse than when you started.
Usually people find they put weight straight back on and often end up heavier than when they started, despite trying their hardest just to get the physique of their favorite celeb.

To get results with your weight loss you must realize a few important things about how these celebrity diets work.
First of all the celeb featured on the routine probably knows nothing about it at all, and is merely picked by the magazine to be the face of their latest issue in a bid to sell more copies. Second of all, the plan itself will have a few massive wrong turns...
* Chopping your intake of fats, protein or carbs actually makes it harder to lose weight by putting your body into a state of fat storage.
* Cutting your calorie intake so drastically will put your body into starvation mode and make it almost impossible to lose weight.
* Most plans ask you to eat the same food over and over again, which is not only dull for you but bad for your body.
The thing about these plans is you'll find you end up heavier and more out of shape than before you started it. Usually the fast weight loss of the first two weeks is offset by a huge weight gain in the coming weeks, this is the making of a yo-yo dieter.
Magazines, of course, know their market. They know this type of stuff sells if they include a few certain things...
* Celeb gossip.
* How to burn fat quickly.
* Celebrities not looking their best.
* Shoes.
The other growing trend in this particular market is to release a Christmas weight loss dvd showing what workout routine helped this particular famous person to drop some pounds during the summer months. Usually they will all suffer from 'different' syndrome, the need to incorporate a gimmick such as Zumba or Bocra just to stand out from the rest releasing the same dvd's at the same time. Take a close look at who releases these materials. Notice how every June they are shown in gossip mags looking out of shape, and every New Year they have a new Keep Fit workout dvd on sale? It isn't coincidence, and it shows their diet isn't effective long term at all.
Your body needs protein, carbohydrates and fats to lose weight and build muscle. Simply learning the basics of how to diet will eliminate the need to get sucked into this gimmick filled, result barren wasteland of get fit quick celebrity diet plans.
