Weight loss is no rocket science. One needs to burn more calories than he/she consumes per day. It is believed that one must start the day with a wholesome breakfast and then eat every 2-3 hours until sunset. But some actresses opted for methods that might not work for all but worked for them during their weight loss journey. 5 actresses reveal the weird ways that helped them lose weight:

I just eat three meals per day. I think you don’t need more meals to survive. This myth of eating two hours doesn’t work for me. If I am hungry, I eat. I listen to my body. But mostly I eat three meals. I don’t eat because one is telling me to eat. It’s a pattern that I’ve broken and that has worked in my favour.

I believe in detoxifying, and that’s what I did for the first two months. I drank litres and litres of aloe vera. I also had a lot of green tea and kale juice.

PS: She also ate her healthy meals of course but she consumed a lot of fluids througout the day.

I wore a double corset day and night for three months. It was brutal; it’s not for everyone.

When I’m showering, I’ll turn the water to cold for the last couple minutes. A hairstylist friend told me [it] closes the hair cuticle…and I always feel like it makes you a little bit skinnier.

I just had to stop eating for a total of 13 days shooting. I was on a starvation diet to look like I was near death in a film… but I went at it with a plan and I had a guide, a nutritionist kind of helped me with it.

Weird, right?
