The Cookie diet - Before Shape-ups, reality star Kim Kardashian tried out the sweet-sounding Cookie Diet. Unfortunately, these aren't the gooey, chocolate-chip cookies that you might be thinking of, although they supposedly don't taste all that bad. The cookies are filled with amino acids and supposedly suppress hunger, are full of fiber, and help slow down digestion so that you feel full longer. The individually wrapped cookies allegedly have all the nutrition needed for a day. The diet also consists of lean protein and vegetables for dinner plus six to eight cookies a day that comes to a total of about 800-1500 calories per day.

Yogahop - Reese Witherspoon used to love her Yogahop and was a regular at the classes, finding time to fit in 90-minute sessions to her hectic schedule. When you think about yoga, you usually picture a spandex-clad instructor meditating atop his purple yoga mat, a sense of calm and spirituality filling the room. Not at Yogahop. This take on balancing exercise incorporates yoga with exhilarating workouts and rockin’ music, reportedly to give the participant life-altering workouts.

Beyonce’s Detox diet – Essentially a 14-day fast that involves a diet of fresh lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne, and water (plus a laxative in the morning and at night), it is meant as a juice detox diet and has spurred other less-intensive juice diets like the BluePrint Cleanse. This one really helps drop pounds quickly.

Facial Yoga - Victoria Beckham, Jennifer Aniston and Gwyneth Paltrow have reportedly all tried out facial yoga. Until a few years ago, once you reached a certain age you only had two options: botox or a facelift. Not any more. Now you can try facial yoga. The poses, which are meant to turn back the clock, include puppet face, lion face, baby bird, bumblebees, smiling fish face, surprise me, the satchmo and the sphinx smile.

The Grapefruit Diet – It's been around since the 1930’s and still finds takers in celebs like Brooke Shields and Kylie Minogue who are looking to drop weight fast. Allegedly, when grapefruit is eaten with protein it triggers fat burning and thus quick weight loss. The diet is recommended for 12 days to achieve the ideal 10-pound weight loss, but it does not promise any long-term changes. Though there are variations on the diet, overall it encourages a low-carbohydrate, low-calorie, and more protein-heavy diet with plenty of fresh grapefruit juice and absolutely no snacking between meals.

Ashthanga Yoga - Madonna is something of a fitness guru, and over the years she has adopted a strict routine of Ashtanga yoga, a form of yoga that synchronises breathing with a progressive series of postures — a process that produces intense internal heat and a profuse sweat, which detoxifies the body. She also follows a healthy diet and barely touches junk food.

Seven day colour diet - In this unique diet, each day is assigned to eating foods of a different color: Monday is white, Thursday is orange, and Sunday is the day of rainbow-colored foods, just to name a few. While no specifics are mentioned other than the color requirement, it is stressed that healthy foods are encouraged. Singer Christina Aguilera is a fan of this multi-colored and challenging diet. While it doesn't promise weight loss, it is said to encourage more awareness about the foods that we are eating and to expose dieters to the wide array of food available.

Raw Food diet - Demi Moore, Donna Karan, Woody Harrelson, Robin Williams, Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Drew Barrymore and Gwyneth Paltrow have all reportedly tried the raw foods diet. The basic structure of this simple-to-follow diet has been around for a while. Participants must eat a high proportion of organic raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains and seeds. Any food that is cooked must not be heated to more than 108 degrees, because the closer a food is to its natural state when eaten, the more beneficial it is. The dieters can’t eat carrots, beetroots or bananas as they are high in starch and sugar, and must avoid white foods, such as wheat, pasta, potatoes and sugar.
