Fu*k Exercise, Just Starve Yourself
Posted by Bossip Staff
What do lazy rappers and producers do to stay on point, take steroids. What do singers like Ashanti do, start leaning on the master cleanse diet:
R+B star ASHANTI lost eight pounds (3.6 kilograms) this summer (07) on the Master Cleanser diet. The pretty singer felt she needed to shape up for a run of promotional appearances for new film Resident Evil: Extinction and new album Declaration and so she spent a week eating nothing. She explains, “I did the lemon-pepper-maple syrup diet for seven days. “When I got really hungry, I ate fruit. I lost eight pounds and kept it off.”
Robin Quivers put this diet on blast back in 2004.

whatever
The weight WILL COME BACK…
That top picture is saying something! LOOKING GOOOOD!!
It worked for Beyonce, so why not Ashanti? A guy at my job tried it also, and he slimmed down considerably, but he also ate right and exercised once the fast was over…
Two people at my job also used it and lost about 10lbs in 2 weeks. They love it. I think I might give it a try.
I think that’s the dumbest ways to lose any weight. What’s wrong with doing it the old fashion way… WORKING YOUR BUTT OFF GOING TO THE GYM, to get to the size you want? First of all, it might’ve worked for Beyoncé but, best believe she gained it back. It’s not healthy, and it’s not safe. On top of that these women got young girls looking up to them and going out to do something that’s dumb it’s setting a really bad example for those young girls.
I really think that it’s tacky.
^^^^True, I never said that Beyonce didn’t gain it back, because she did. I just said that it worked for her, so Ashanti doing it shouldn’t be any different. Also, I think that the obsession with losing weight, being a certain size to appear a certain way will never change. Ever. Everytime you open a mag, turn on the tv, that’s what you see, unrealistic body types. People are going to do a quick fix method whether a celebrity is endorsing it or not, so they (celebs) shouldn’t be held TOTALLY responsible…
i soon as this movie flop she’ll be comforting her self with a bucket of kfc.weight back
everyday black women hate hearing about people losing weight
those crappy starve yourself eating garbage would proably kill a fat boy like me with heart problems and diabetes. What the hell I am going to hell in a bucket so I might as well enjoy the ride.
I’ve never been on an official diet but I do drink green tea with apple cider vinegar (helps you to feel fuller faster and helps keep your system clean).
And have you noticed how the new diet pills like Alli cause anal leakage????? WTF!
This is one of the most unhealthy ways of losing weight. I was 150 pounds back in 2000 and I lost 30 pounds. I gained 10 back and lost 10 earlier this year. Just minimize your food intake and go jogging 3-4 times a week. THAT works….this will KILL YOU if you take it out of proportion…We are normal people, not celebrities or health gurus, and we probably dont know what the hell we are doing…DONT DO THIS!!!
i think its a good idea, not just to lose weight but to rid ur body of toxins, its not a long term type of thing, but its like a fresh start, if u only need to lose a few pounds, if u want to keep it off you cant go right back to chili cheese fries and hot dogs of course you will gain all the weight back
i think ppl just need to stay motivated because everyone looks for a quick fix and there is no such thing, you have to change all ur habits and thats hard to do, u just have to keep at it
i agree with robin though, i dont think gastric bypass is a good idea unless u are severely overweight cuz everything changes, u cant eat the same and u are on pills the rest of ur life, i could see if overtime they would open ur stomach back up to its regular size piece by piece until u gain control of yourself
anyway whenever u decide to diet or whatever u really should see a doctor because they can help u figure out what is best for you, thats y so many ppl dont see results because they do fad diets that dont work for their level of metabolism or their lifestyle
Quite a few folks at my job have done it. I just don’t have that type of time to commit to being on the toilet.
I’m a bossiper for goodness sakes
Yeah, it works, but it’s not good for you. People pick on specific celebs for their low-calorie diets like Rihanna. Ashanti literally starved herself. I’d rather be eating 800 calories a day than maple syrup-lemon-pepper concoction with a fruit if the hunger pangs become too much.
She need to lay off the pancake mixture and fried dumplings thats all. Encouraging people to starve when there are Africans starving without choice. smh @ this madness. Ashanti needs to listen to my new single, Grown Woman (album in stores Nov 20)
All my love,

Piston36 what does your comment have to do with anything?
As long as she knows that she still has to excercise to maintain it. Beyonce wanted to gain her weight back, she was doing an interview where she stated guys would be ike where’s the old Beyonce with curves, so I guess that’s when she decided to eat the dozen Krispy Cremes. She probably could have kept it off if she wanted too. I’m going to try it
Good for her, I just can’t commit to not eating nothing at all.
Ashanti only did it for a week…which is safe and is what you should do to detox your system and to kick start your weight lost…any longer is dangerous…you begin to lose muscle mass and it slows your metabolism down.
I saw an interview with her where she said she didn’t think she was fat but she was human and when she is not working she will eat barbecue chicken and ice cream and not hit the gym everyday…she said she is going to enjoy her life.
She did do the detox for a week but she is also in the gym working it out…
This is sad…to know folks, especially stars like Ashanti and Beyonce go on such diets. Im training for a bodybuilding contest oct 27 and i have to lose 14 pounds to make my weight class. Im 169lbs normally at 5′7″. At this moment im 161 lbs. Ive been ‘dieting’ for three weeks….wanna know what my diet consists –>oatmeal, egg whites for breakfast…chicken breast and brown rice for pre-lunch meal –>protein shake before and after my lunchtime workout—>chicken breast and broccoli for mid-day meal and turkey breast and salad for dinner…ITS CALLED PROPER EATING..and cutting out butter, and oils, and cookies, and shiiiit….not starvation people…read and learn!
This diet is very unhealthy…people need to realize that when these stars do these crazy diets…they are usually sitting at home with specialists around in case they pass out or somethin…You can simply detox you body by eating pure vegetables and drinking green tea for a straight week…if you eat properly your body should detox on its own plus when u eat hardly anything your metabolism slows down even more so after you’re done its hard to keep the weight off.
Who the hell cares?!!! Anyway…

My check is already in the mail. Let’s use the blogs for good things also.
I thank the Lord everyday that I am naturally slim and can eat what ever I want. Just eating fruit for a week, damn that has to be hard.
NO BOSSIP, PLEASE DON’T SAY FUCK EXERCISE, BECAUSE THAT IS ONE ON THE MAIN REASONS WHY SO MANY OF US ARE FAT-TO-OBESE. BLACK PEOPLE WOULD RATHER EAT GLASS THAN TO DO A 20 MINUTE WALK AND THAT IS KILLING US AND LEADING TO AN EXPLOSION IN WEIGHT RELATED DISEASES.

it has to do with all the fat bossip bitches i knew would start hatin on ashanti’s weight loss. this chick has access to the nation’s best chefs & trainers. im pretty sure she knows what she’s doin
I think ashanti look nice .pretty dress nice acesseries ilove the outfit so i would most def wear it .its nothing wrong with the way she lost weight as long as she lost it .ashanti do you dont worry about the haters if they talk about you know that you are important .if they dont your not important
I decided that I dont care what I weigh anymore and I am sad to see women my size and smaller falling prey to this way of living. I am proud of the way I look, the gorgeousness that is me is reaffirmed every time I step out of the door or look in the mirror. I would never, ever replace being able to sit down where I want and eating what I want, to drinking and pissing all day. Please. Portillos, here I come!!!
Hmm……. I tried that shit earlier this yearand I couldn’t hold out for more than 3 days. It’s disgusting. And it doesn’t really supply you with the energy you need. I damn near passed out! lol (not that that’s funny…)
THEN I found out that B had done it for 2 weeks (last yr) and that’s how she got skinny for Dream Girls…She’s focused. I tried…but working out consistently is less stressful than drinking jugs of that concoction a day.
But really, if she only did if for one week to lose 8lbs, she could’ve just worked out really hard for 5-6 days and gotten the same results. Yuck.
i aint mad at her. boo boo looked like she could stand to miss a meal or 50! lol
She looks great, she looked good even before she lost the weight,she just has a beautiful,thick curvacous yet fit figure. The Fat Smash diet is a good one too. Most ppl on average lost 20 something to 30 something pounds following that diet. If your serious you can really lose weight in a healthy way …because in the first phase, detox phase you can eat unlimted amounts of fruits and vegetables if you get hungry..instead of starving.I lost 27lbs on that diet. You do need to exercise too though.
Let me put ya’ll on cuz this is ridiculous.
THE MASTER CLEANSE IS NOT A DIET. It is a natural cleanser or natural colon cleanse per say. People like Beyonce and Ashanti give MC a bad rep. The purpose of the cleanse is to purify the innerworkin’s of the body digestive system and not for weight loss. You lose weight quickly but it’s all the nasty stuff that clogs your arteries. You gain all the weight back and it’s only to be done twice a year or so.The cleanse uses pure lemon juice and maple syup. Those Stupid Ass Celebrities are gonna kill themselves by using lemon pepper.
All I got to say is my fat ass need to do something smoke crack, drink syrup, pop pills or something !!!!
This is not a healthy way to diet, once you do this your appetite will come back full force. But, if it worked for her and Beyonce, that’s good.
Attention all Fat Black Women:
Please do not attempt to starve yourself, go ahead and have a second helping of chitlins and rice!!!
She looks pretty, what is the big deal about losing 8lbs though?, lol
PeaChzAloWiSheS,
Thank you for the clarification because people think this is the weight loss miracle…as I said before these people that do these master cleanse “diets” are usually sittin at home doing it with professionalso around them for their every move…Beyonce even said she had a team of nutitionist around her in case she fainted and she stayed at home due to lack of energy for 2weeks…You can’t have a regular job unless you take a week off for this cleansing process…people always look for the easy way out…take ur butt to the gym and work out instead of drinking a nasty liquid…if you are gonna cleanse yourself do it for the right reasons
thank you Lady Architect…lol…this diet is mainly for celebs..they kinda have to crash diet..in order for them stay fit or should I say slim..Beyonce was doing that temporarily for the movie because the camera adds weight so she did what she have to do
stop all the talk about so many fat obese black women. have you idiots looked around to see all the fat ass obese white women, and a lot of them date black men. now thats something to think about. look at ice t, if a black women dress like that he would say she looks like a ho.
Attention all Fat Black Women:
You will find you a good man out there, who will love to rub on your strecth marks, and take you to Mc Donald’s!!!
This diet may be OK for detoxing your system but it’s pointless for weight loss. Using these kind of quick fixes results in a yo-yo effect. Only a permanent lifestyle change will achieve balance…I don’t know anyone who can live off of lemonade and pepper for life.
ashanti still looks fat to me. look at her thighs and people who is sayin’ that she’s pretty. let me see the eyes your seeing through cause i see differently.
Robin Quivers has beautiful legs, regardless of her size.

Why do people try to make losing weight some magical thing. I guess so they can captilize on peoples ignorance. Losing weight is not hard it’s expend more calories than you take in, so you lose. People gain weight because they eat too much, plain and simple. If starvation mode were true where are the 500 pound people starving to death? Get a clue, do your own research and stop believing everything some guy in sweat pants tells you. People should be the size they want to be, black or white. Not every black woman has to have a big booty, or even has the makeup to have one and if she wants to lose weight then more power to her…
