And although we’re all gung ho about looking healthy, it just leads you to question what does looking beautiful and healthy really mean  for these Hollywood celebrities.  Does it mean weighing less than 100lbs? Or wearing a size 0? Or getting all those muscles to show on camera?

True enough we’ve seen a lot of these Hollywood women morphing into svelte figures  over the years and as short as a month they can just turn into a stick figure with little lady lumps and bumps. Whether roles have forced them to  take that extra effort to lose weight or  just plain glamour pressure that can be unforgiving for any  celebrity whose every bulge and curve gets scrutinized by the public eye.

Well, these women can be real inspirations for us average beings . Knowing that we can transform ourselves into almost any shape and take on a whole new life sans the excess baggage. Then again, not everyone can afford personal trainers, fancy diet food or get into weight loss boot camps. But, we still get to live through our fave celebrities who are just as vulnerable to binging and  excess adipose tissue.

Here are some Hollywood Weightloss Wonders :

Renee’ Zellweger –  Just amazing how this woman was able to yoyo diet to epitomize the characters she played in her much raved about movies.

Carnie Wilson – Nothing but pure admiration for her courageous decision to undergo gastric bypass after years of just embracing who she is and her many great talents.

Kirstie Alley – now who didn’t just have big love for this woman? Having a gorgeous face and a quirky personality was all she needed that made her  a big beautiful woman, that had everyone watch her awesome transformation.

Mariah Carey – post baby bumps and lumps didn’t slow down this diva to get back into top performance shape. However much she admitted to having “some issues” , she certainly  pulled through looking like a very hot momma!

Nicole Richie – watching Nicole seriously drop some poundage left many people in shock as she became disturbingly waif.  Although she’s now looking much more in normal range of body mass, we all guess momma-hood has brought out the best in her.

Lindsay Lohan – we’ve seen her during her peachy teenage years and having blossomed into a troubled young woman, it’s not surprising that she would go through some weight issues as well.  Her nearly stick figure was due to  a habit of not eating at all.

Courtney Love – her Celebrity Skin days have long passed and all that’s left is indeed, some celebrity skin on her abdominal area. We don’t really know how she lost weight, but we’ve got a lot of raised eyebrows as to the type of regimen she had subjected herself to lose so much weight.

Look who we spotted at London Fashion Week. Rocker Courtney Cox showed up at the Pringle of Scotland Fashion Show at the Serpentine Gallery wearing a sweater and kilt combo. How fitting!

She wasn’t doing it just to support her designer friend. The 46-year-old Hole frontwoman actually has Scottish roots. She told Wenn, “I’m really conventional at heart; I’m really a country girl. I used to go to Summerhill boarding school in Suffolk and I’m buying a house in Buckinghamshire.” Guid!

Here's perhaps one of the biggest surprises of this year - Courtney Love was sighted in New York and she looked, well, like one of us! We haven't heard from/about her in a while, but by the looks of it, she is starting to get back in the groove. Whatchathink is going on?

Yeah, the wife of former Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain is still alive and kicking - quite energetically, if I may add. She, together with other former Nirvana members, are very upset about the fact that Kurt Cobain's character in Guitar Hero 5 is unlockable. That means that once the character is unlocked, it can be used for any song in the game. According to Courtney, the agreement was that Cobain would appear in two songs, that's it. Activision says the exact opposite.

Someone other than blondie Jessica Simpson is celebrating their birthday this week, Courtney Love rung in her 43rd birthday by apparently doing her best & scariest ’80s impression.

Love, who turned 43 on Monday, was spotted after her performance at London’s Bush Hall holding a bouquet given to her by an admiring fan. 

I’ve been watching Love for almost a decade now, and I think this might just be the worst picture of Courtney ever.  I mean, the bird-like nose looks like it’s going to turn into a beak any minute now & those teeth look like they could use a good soaking since they look like my grandmom’s dentures.

Really Court, you need some kind of fashion intervention & freeking fast at that!

Crazypants Courtney Love is finally going to auction off some of her late hubby’s personal effects.

42-year-old Love is holding at auction at Christie’s to sell off some of Kurt Cobain’s clothing, a guitar & some lyrics.  Love stated that living with them in her home “is like a mausoleum”.

Love reveals that much of the proceeds from the auction will go to charity, but thinks this is a good choice for her 15-year-old daughter Francis Bean.

“My daughter doesn’t need to inherit a giant … bag full of flannel … shirts. A sweater, a guitar and the lyrics to `(Smells Like) Teen Spirit’ — that’s what my daughter gets.”

Love goes on to reveal that she’s still just as crazy as ever, saying, ”I still wear (Kurt’s) pajamas to bed. How am I ever going to go form another relationship in my lifetime wearing Kurt’s pajamas?”

Well, you seemed to form a pretty good relationship with drugs there, Court.

I wonder what Kurt would think…..

Former Hole frontwoman Courtney Love was spotted at Maui’s Kea Lani Resort earlier this week showing off a very noticeable new figure.  Looks like Love could even compete in the boxing ring from the looks of it. 

42-year-old Love has apparently lost 45 pounds since December.  Wonder if this has anything to do with that nude photo shoot?

Anyhoo, the singer has been melting away by drinking the famed Isopure diet shakes for the past four months.  Love is also combining more fish, steamed veggies, waving off the carbs & doing loads of yoga.

“She’s feeling like a different person,” reveals an insider.

Apparently Courtney is planning on losing 55 pounds altogether.  Yeah, I guess these folks aren’t happy until they work off their breasts as well.

You tell me, Do you like Courtney’s new look or is it a little on the too skinny side of things?
