Courtney Love Says Macrobiotic Food Made Her Fat
Category: Celebrity Diets, Misc Celebs & Diet News
Apparently, nobody really knows how Courtney Love lost weight. She has now, though various interviews, revealed three different ways that she lost the extra weight she carried around last year. I don’t believe a one of them, personally.
Up until this point, we thought she lost weight either through gastric band surgery or a macrobiotic diet. But now she claims macrobiotic food actually made her fat - and that she lost the weight with diet shakes!
The singer-and-actress gained weight by binging on macrobiotic food, and only achieved her current slim figure by locking her fridge and replacing meals with diet shakes.
Courtney told People magazine: “I gained 40 to 50 pounds on macrobiotic food.
“I put the non-Photoshopped pictures on my fridge and had a lock fixed on it. My daughter Frances has her carbs in one drawer. I don’t know where it is. I drink shakes and exercise my butt off. No carbs - two shakes and a fish meal. Fish and broccoli really does work!”
Uh-huh.
She is a scary hag with way too much plastic surgery.
What was in the shakes?
Ms. Lovely
Someone needs to cut off her supply of cut-off shorts.
SKELATOR
She looks so much better. That camera angle makes anyone’s legs look skinny so I’d say she’s at a good weight for her frame. It will be hard for her to drink shakes the rest of her life, she needs to learn portion control.
she left out that she took diet pills of corse! Finally some truth!! bottom line.. the only way to lose weight that fast… starve starve starve.. and if you do it with diet pills and excersize… that should just about cover the 50 lbs in 4 months
she should start selling books.. this diet oculd be the new fad!
For being so thin, her chest is still quite large. Inordinately large, in fact.
I would love to eat fish and veggies every day if someone would cook for me…:-)
At the beginning of the summer I heard an interview with her on NPR and she said “food is for peasants.” She’s on the liquid diet.
LOL. mmmmKay.
I know it is possible to gain weight by binging on anything.
I agree with the person that said she needs to learn portion control.
Well, whatever she did it obviously worked. Protein shakes and fish will do it I suppose although I don’t know how long she’ll last if that’s all she eats. We’ll just have to wait and see..
A macrobiotic diet could make one fat, if they had a gluten allergy/intolerance I suppose.
I will agree with that. I can tell you from experience that fish and broccoli REALLY work to shed pounds.
she has implants again maybe?
too many calories of any type will fatten anyone.
she looked so bad fat. way better as a thinster.
i think fish and veggies/fruit is just what works for her. its what she ate as a stripper in japan when she was younger and it kept her thin.
but those shorts suck…it would of been better if it was a skirt…shorty shorts are for no one. ewww.
i have to say, i think macrobiotic and vegetarian diets are really fattening. everyone i know who became a vegetarian just blew up (weight-wise). i have no idea why - would think it would have the opposite effect ?!!
I agree, eating fish and broccoli = drop pounds fast. i myself eat veggies, fish and chicken every single day, and i have no problem maintain my weight
Must have been heroin in the shakes.
I feel sorry for her daugher she seems such a nutter.
well i sure am glad she’s teaching her daughter how to live a normal, healthy lifestyle. NOT.
I wonder when we´ll see her fat again. With such a diet…cant take too long…
There should be an age limit on those shorts
And like I really believe it isn’t the blow it’s the shakes…oh yeah.
the gyastric bypass thing was so stupid, obviously she never did that.
To me it sounds like the diet in this article would do the trick if you could stick to it…not sure how healthy it is…but it would work.
courtney love is a goddess… but is anyone else getting tired of her weight-related publicity stunts?
Does someone actually give a s***?
At some point, she’s going to have to learn to eat regular food and maintain a healthy weight. She can’t live on two shakes and a meal for the rest of her life. She won’t be able to sustain that way of eating forever.
That’s my complaint about meal replacments, and other funky methods of dieting. Realistically, it can’t be sustained long-term.
She gained 40-50 lbs eating macrobiotic food???
I believe I would have changed my diet after the first 10-15!!! The drugs tend to blur the thinking…
who cares? her only claim to fame is marrying a useless singer. he’s been dead for so long, why is anyone still interested in her? especially with her looks and mental problems.
well, duh. obviously you’re gonna get fat when you binge on any kind of food, macrobiotic or not. what an idiot
Of course fish and broccoli works.
She’s such an idiot.
Diet shakes my tush.
of course fish, broccoli, and shakes make you lose weight. anything that unhealthy makes you lose weight.
a doctor once told me that the more I eat broccoli the more I lose weight, probably because it makes u full.
2 shakes and fish/broc??? thats like less than 1000 cals a day. Obviously you lose that way….until you eat a meal!!
lipo
I bet she really did follow that diet. Believe it or not courtney love always looks thin when she gets off teh drugs. Case in point, when she did the acting thing for awhile…thin then. The origional riot girl C.Love..a bit plumper. Anyway, more poewer to her. At least she owns up to shit, unlike most of hollywood.
I have another comment. It’s about broccoli.
I eat raw broccoli in my salad almost everyday. I use it instead of lettuce. It’s true that it keeps me full because it has a lot fiber. It’s chocked full of vitamins, too. Raw broccoli is one of my mainstay foods.
Ah, as soon as she stops the stupid diet she’s on, she’ll gain all the weight back. Thats the problem with diets that arent healthy eating, its just the same as starvation and so your body acts in exactly the same way.
She’s too thin here anyway.
Well geez, too much of any food will make you fat, just certain foods are more concentrated sources of calories so eating them will result in quicker weight gain.
Poor francis
Her weight looks fine. But she herself is an idiot.. Ugh she sickens me.
the weight loss doesn’t change the fact that she’s still Courtney Love…unfortunately
yes, broccoli does cause you to lose weight. i often go to places like perkins or applebee’s and just order 3 servings of steamed broccoli (no butter) & it fills you up so quickly & tastes delicious.
People just love to hate Courtney, but I think she’s cool. She made some music which I really loved. She is not only known for having been married to a dead musician, but for being one in her own right.
Hey beautyqueen… do you just call any woman over the age of 30 a hag? What’s your definition?
But lol at “cut off her supply of cut offs”
even if shes been fingering her throat-
she looks great here!
for an old bird- shes perfect.
good work courtney!!!
I read the interview. She also said she had lipo. She said she started her diet on 750 calories a day. She’s an idiot. I am looking forward to seeing what heppens when she starts eating again.. Which she inevitably will..
Nothing like lipo and drugs to slim you down, huh Courtney?
i liked her old face better. i would take a patti smith or a beth ditto or even a juliette lewis over a gwyneth paltrow or lohan anyday. i never even thought about what courtney looked like before she started trying so hard. all this valentino-macrobiotic bullshit is lame, but hey- whatever rocks her boat.
DRUGS are what make her lose weigh.
Actually EATING made her gain weight- macrobiotic or not……..she’s so full of shit.
her poor daughter……tsk tsk
I’m sorry but her face could be one of the scariest faces I’ve ever seen. What the hell happened to this woman?
I thought getting off the drugs made her fat.
she’s not on a diet unless it’s heroin or cocain. getting high instead of eating will make you thin. i just hope she doesn’t get on stage while still high like at the pam anderson roast. i think her daughter is getting too old to be taken by the state anymore so that’s a plus.
She needs to stay away from the surgeon’s knife.
Yah Courtney, and major drug use can also make you lose weight! She’s a major stoner and will always be one.
I’m honking the BS horn on this one.
I have been Macrobiotic for most of my life. The diet is really healthy. It is grains, beans, veggies, sea vegetables and sometimes some fish. I really cannot see how someone could or would want to binge on this. I mean is you are eating this food that is high in vitamins, your body is nourished and you would not feel the need to binge on the macro food. She probably tried to stay on the diet and binged on french fries , donuts and crappy food. She is on major diet pilsl and starving. Hello anorexia….
umm i made a comment that was deleted. but in digging through links it said she lost the weight through her macro diet.
and now she says its the shakes and not the macro.
hmmm….
why was my comment deleted? are we not suppose to post links? i didnt know that. i was quoting so i plugged them in there.
I say gastric bypass. Have you seen her stomach? Looks stapled!
Great example she is setting to her daughter with only eating 1 proper meal per day- NOT!
She needs to learn what healthy eating really is and do plenty of exercise. Then she would be able to find a stable healthy weight and stay there.
Yes, that’s exactly what yo-yo dieting is.
hey diet shakes really do work. im drinking them now and i can see results.
she is a mess!
Yeah maybe shakes made her lose weight….if she was having cocaine shakes
well what’s the point of going on a macrobiotic - or any kind of diet when you end up binging? of course you’ll get fat - a calorie is a calorie
I’d prefer reading in my native language, because my knowledge of your languange is no so well.
