Kaela Humphries Changes Her Athlete's Diet – and Loses 40 Lbs.
Originally posted 05/25/2012 06:05PM
As a former competitive swimmer and now a plus-sized model, Kaela Humphries is used to having her professional life linked to her body.
Unfortunately, as an athlete in high school and college, her eating and exercising regimen was much different than it is now that she's stopped swimming.
"You are sort of used to living and eating a certain way, and then you are like, 'Oh my God, I can't eat 10 meals a day and 10,000 calories anymore,' " Humphries, 29, tells PEOPLE about having to alter her routine. "On top of that, I'm approaching 30 and it gets harder to lose weight the older you get."
The sister of Kim Kardashian's ex, Kris Humphries, Kaela says her post-swimming size fluctuated from size 10 or 12 when she was in high school to an 18 after college.

Originally posted 05/23/2012 03:00PM
He may have limited some of her songwriting subjects – especially those angry, brokenhearted ones – but Kelly Clarkson says her boyfriend has fueled her desire to work out.
"I would love to say that it had something to do with my work, but it doesn't," Clarkson, 30, whose new singing competition Duets premieres Thursday, told reporters during a conference call. "I have a boyfriend, and if I'm being completely honest, no one likes to be not toned when you are dating someone."
Having revved up her workout routine and by restricting her diet, Clarkson says the pounds have come off.
"I'm eating better and working out, but I've always fluctuated within 20 lbs.," she adds. "My whole life I've been like that."

Janet Jackson Says She Doesn't Weigh Herself
Originally posted 05/16/2012 02:15PM
After years of yo-yo dieting, Janet Jackson is finally at the size she wants to be. Just don't ask her how many pounds she's dropped.
"I don't know how much weight I've lost, only because I stay away from the scale," Jackson told PEOPLE at Marco Glavianos "Supermodels" exhibit in New York recently.
"I don't think [stepping on the scale] is healthy. You're setting yourself up to fail and women's bodies fluctuate every month – certain time of the month in particular – we bloat a great deal," she says.

Beyoncé Does Her Own Makeup – and Cuts Her Own Hair
Originally posted 05/06/2012 06:30PM
Beyoncé remembers first trying makeup when she was 6 years old.
"I was playing in my mother's makeup," she tells PEOPLE. "I had blue eye shadow and red lips, and I put crazy blush on. I looked like a clown, but I thought I was so beautiful."
Her routine has come a long way since then – the singer often does her own makeup for appearances – but her love for the basics remains.
Asked what she wears to look awake after sleepless nights spent with baby Blue, she replies, "Lip gloss – I love L'Oréal's Infallible 8 HR Le Gloss in Coral Sands – and a little bit of blush."

Jeremy Britt, who was crowned the winner of The Biggest Loser: No Excuses on Tuesday, said the first thing he plans to do with his $250,000 winnings is buy a minivan for fellow contestant Buddy Shuh – who quit the show before the finals.
"When he left he said all he wanted was a minivan out of the show," Britt, 22, tells PEOPLE. "I promised him if I won I would get a minivan. So I owe Buddy a minivan."
Britt lost 199 lbs. (more than half his body weight) during the course of the competition. And he says he wouldn't have been able to do it without the help of his family, including his sister and fellow contestant Conda Britt, who lost 115 lbs. and also made it to the finals.
