Anna Nicole Smith's New Shape

cbsnews.com: Asked why she decided to lose weight in the first place, since for a while she seemed comfortable in her own skin, Smith says, "I wasn't unhappy at all until just everybody just started ridiculing me so bad. I just got to the point that it was just like, 'My God, you know. Just shut up, everybody. What is the big deal?? And then I just looked in the mirror. I'm like, 'I am fat!'"

What really troubles me about Anna Nicole's support of TrimSpa is her saying, "It's really hard to eat, because, for me, it's like I've lost my appetite. So I have to really, really push myself to eat." That sounds like an eating disorder to me. If not for her, I can see where other dieters might fall into that trap.

Does anybody honestly believe that Trimspa deserves the credit for this? She looks fabulous, there is no doubt about it. I was stunned when I saw her. But I simply do not believe that Trimspa can be the key here.

She's got to be on speed. In addition to getting her figure back and more (she admitted that she is thinner now than when she was the Guess girl), she's gotten back her ability to speak without slurring her words. That tells me that she's off the Lithium or whatever downer she's been taking for the last few years (a la Elvis) and she's cranked things up a few notches.

i would be more likely to credit her statement to a general lack of ability to articulate her thoughts and feelings than an eating disorder.

I couldnt agree more with the statement:

"i would be more likely to credit her statement to a general lack of ability to articulate her thoughts and feelings than an eating disorder."

She's never been known for being an articulate person. Don't be so critical people. Your just jealous she looks great!
-I'm not saying she's not weird, she is definately, but in my opinion she's just been babied too much to let her mind continue to develope "If you don't use it, you lose it". Nevermind the possible drug and alchohol use.

If anything she's just a slothful person in almost everyway. Maybe she's getting better? We can only hope.

Just thought I'd let you know... that's whats in Trimspa. It's some sort of herbal thing that makes you not want to eat. But in order to stay healthy you must force yourself to eat a healthy meal. Meaning you won't be craving anything very fatty.

I'm ready for MY ultimate comeback baby! Trimspa actually does curb your appetite. Many of the ingredients are known as appetite suppressants, including Hoodia, which I believe Pfizer pharmaceuticals has shown an interest in developing into a Rx weight management drug. Everybody is different, so for someone like me who seems to be hungry all the time--it can promote weight loss. From what I have read, Anna used Trimspa before they approached her to do the marketing..which may or may not be true. If she was the type of person that ate all day and felt hungry, then she may have very well picked this up and started using it. Anyhoo, it does have some sort of effect on hunger... imo

Well, I would like to say that Anna Nicole Smith is the most extraordinary woman alive. She is sensual,fascinating and I liked her very much in playboy and movies and so,She is really special.The point is that I am kind of a skinny girl but I think that somehow skinny women secretely desire to have a volupuos shape, and ...let me tell you a funny story: when I walk with a girlfriend and her boy on the street , and some voluptuos woman appears,my girlfriend tries to make her boy not look in that direction(lol). Of course,real beauty cannot be hidden and I am sure that all the mean remarks come from unsatisfied men or frustrated women.
I would rather ask her how she put on weight, but I dont think she would ever get to read this...
All the best to everyone.

Anna Nicole Smith is a millionare people! do you really think that she is going to waste her time trying to loose weight with a pill? It is obviouse that she got liposuction, and not only once. Not to mention at the point that she was before there is no possible wasy she could have lost weight and then had no loose skin, she did have surgery, including liposcution!

If she really did take TrimSpa, then why didn't Kimmy take it too? That girl is pretty rough...I am sure she could look better if she shed a few pounds.

And my sister tried Trim Spa once and said it sucks...that she could not have done it on Trim Spa. But I think that was a year or two ago.

AND, my sister and I are fat camp champs...and have tried it all. I am really dying to know the truth!

I was watching the season premier of Annas show last night on E! I think she looks fabulous and that really gives me the motivation to keep trying to lose weight.
Let me tell you I was on trim spa over the summer when news broke about Annas success. I lost 20 lbs in 3 months with low carb dieting!
I totally screwed up and gained it all back because I quit taking it due to alot of cheating and personally money was tight so It was not in the budget. I am now back on the band wagon took trimspa again this week and already lost 3lbs!
Yes I was sceptical about the Lipo rumor...But I guess I will just keep taking the trimspa and hope for the best! I wanna look like Anna :)

When you took the trim spa did it feel like it was clogging your throat? and most importantly did your heart race and were you hyper? I have a heart that palpitates and i am scared to take it...

Nope...No problems with this one. That is why I like it. If you can eat seafood with no problem then you should be able to take this. I personally have had no palpitations. I have tried others that made me very jittery (Xenedrine and Hydroxycut freaked me out) but Trim spa makes me feel normal and alert (not shakey). Try the trial size box at Walmart ($15) and start with one pill a day and work your way up.

A few years ago I lost 46 pounds for no reason. This year I gained it ALL back plus 10. I was also built like Anna was during her Guess period, but I'm not as big as she was at her largest. I just want to know if Trim Spa really works or if she had liopsuction done. I used to work in the medical field and have seen MANY celebrities come in our offices for proceedures that they swore they never had, so I'm very skeptical. Anna has never done a website dedicated to what she actually did on a daily basis to lose the weight.What I was hoping she would have done on her reality show was tell people exactly what she did do to lose the weight. Did she exercise and diet, or did she really just take a pill?I doubt it. She was close to 300 pounds and to whittle down to 130 pounds means there HAD to be excessive skin hanging somewhere.There was another woman who posted that had commented about Anna having the money to be "fixed" up and I tend to agree. I think Anna looks fabulous, but I'd really like her to do a book or something to explain just what she REALLY did. I'll tell you what I did. I quit eating. I was real sick for six months and I just stopped eating and the weight came off. It took about eight months to get down to 110 from 148,and I never found out what caused the loss of appetite but I realized the weight came off VERY EASILY because I wasn't eating. After I got my appetite back it scared me, so I staretd working out at the gym and using a treadmill five times a week. Guess what folks, I STILL GAINED THE WEIGHT BACK. I know my story is long, but the fact of the matter is the only way to lose weight is NOT EAT PERIOD. That is why alot of people use Trim Spa, Metaboburn, Xenical etc. They can put a man on the damn moon, but no one can figure out metabolic rate for humans.How about making foods where there is no weight gain!!! Sigh..Thanks for letting me "bloviate" folks. I just want to get back in my size zero jeans.Oh...here is what I did eat when I was going through that faze. No breakfast, no lunch. Two diet Coke's during the day. Dinner was a very small broiled piece of chicken or fish, a steamed vegetable, a dry salad. No dressing, no breads no potatoes. I did eat pasta one night a week. I lived like this for eight months. I kept the weight off four years and then all of a sudden this year BAM!!! major gain...all in eight months again. I started eating breakfast, lunch and dinner. No junk, just regular eating. Anyone else ever have this happen to them? I was told I had Epsten Barr.

I'm as tall as Anna and have the same build. We basically looked the same so she had to weigh at least 275. Thankfully, I've lost a ton of weight and am still going.

Hello, I've been reading some of your comments regarding Anna Nicole Smith. I agree, she looks fabulous. I was involved in a car accident 3 yrs ago.. at the time, I was in GREAT shape... working out on a regular basis etc. I am 5'7 and weighed about 125lbs. After my accident, I couldn't move my body, due to a severe neck injury. I basically went from resting position to resting position. I gained at least I'd say 50lbs(I've never been that heavy in my entire life) at least. I stopped getting on the scale, so it could have been much higher than that. I started seeing a chiropractor who basically saved my life, because I was fat and so depressed because of my inability to move. He 'fixed' my body to the point where I regained mobility. I have since lost roughly 40lbs and still have about 15-20 to get down to my 'normal' weight (for me). Here is what I am doing... I AM taking trimspa, though, I'm not certain it is making all that much of a difference. What DOES work for SURE... Staying away from high carb, low nutritious foods. Anything, white and starchy, I don't eat it. I am exercising daily... 30 minutes at least. ANY type of movement will engage your metabolism, and help you burn calories. Increase your muscle mass.. (ie; weight lifting - even light weights 3 times a week). That said, I have also read that Anna Nicole Smith had used a 'colon cleanser' along side of Trimspa. Since I've been on a plateau for a few months, I thought I would give it a try. I picked up an all natural one from the Health food store. It works like a charm. You use it for a month and then you're done. The idea, is that if your bowels are not clean, ie; coated, you will not get as much nutrients from ANY food that you eat. I can honestly say, that since I have started it, I do not feel the need to eat as 'much'... smaller amounts of food, fill me up faster. I am also making healthier choices. One thing, that I KNOW works for SURE, eat several 'small' meals a day 150-300 calories 6 times a day.. NEVER go longer than 3 hour without eating... (make sure its something healthy that you eat) and your metabolism will keep running on HIGH throughout the day. The pounds will melt off. I also avoid anything high in Fat. On a personal note, I have run into people I know and know WELL, (one of them taught my sons piano) and they DID not recognize me!!!! I'm NOT joking... I couldn't believe it... (they met me when I was heavier) I was waving "hello" to her, and she was like, "Do I know you???" I'm NOT kidding that's what she said. So, keep moving, eat 6 small meals throughout the day every 3 hours and stay away from High carbs and high fats.

Good Luck to you, I will keep you posted as to whether or not I was able to lose these last lbs.
Shmash.

I just saw Anna in Peoples Magazine (and just read the trimspa commercial add.) In the picture I saw she wears a pink blouse and jeans,(she seems to have a heart shaped navel ring partially covered by the blouse) AND you can see part of her stomach skin and it doesnt look good ( like a raisin..like when you have too many kids)so I dont think shes had cirgury...but she should.

Anna Nicoles Secret is out:

San-Hoodia - Pure Hoodia Gordonii Diet Pill

Hoodia Gordonii is the key ingredient to Anna Nicole's weight loss.

A Little More Info On Hoodie Gordonii

You've probably heard all about this already. San-Hoodia is a product that will help you lose weight. This has been on TV in 60 minutes, and has been used for thousands of years to defeat hunger. Dieting with San-Hoodia, along with appropriate lifestyle,
should help you to lose weight.

Hoodia Gordonii is a succulent (cactus like) plant found in desert regions of South
Africa (Namibia, Angola and Botswana). For thousands of years, the San Bushmen of the Kalahari desert have used Hoodia Gordonii to counter hunger and thirst,
when they were deprived of food on long hunting expeditions in the desert.

I am about to take it but the warning on the back about having trouble swallowing or you may choke kinda bothers me.
They tell you to make sure to wash it down with ALOT of water, because thats why you are not hungry it SWELLS and if you don't swallow it, it swells in your throat and you can choke.
That kinda scares me.
I was tempted to try it but am afraid now that it'll get stuck like a tylenol sometimes does..and then what??
I'll lose lots of weight, I'll be dead!

girls girls girls,
try portion controls, HONEST food journaling and start with turning off the computer and go for a nice long walk around the neighborhood.
Trimspa or any other diet pill d'jour is not going to bring you longterm happiness.
There is no pill that will drop the weight for good, unless you change the bad habits.
Anna Nichole is a very sad sou,l and will do anything to be in the limelight..thin, fat dead...

I saw Anna Nicole when she lifted her shirt and bared her breasts at the MTV Autralia Music Awards. Her stomach looked nice like she has had surgery to get rid of that excess skin she had hanging around before. And even without a bra, her breasts were pert and sitting straight up on her chest. Not big and oversized and droopy like they used to be. I guess if you have money you can change your body in a period of a year basically. Good for her! I would do it too if I could.

I've heard Anna took a colon cleanser during or before her diet. I heard that people most often have about 20lbs of old fecal matter stuck to their colons which slows down the metabolism and the absorbtion of nutrients....and obviously creates a pouch in their bellies. Anyone out there can tell me if this is true OR rumor.

HI ALL, i'm 5'7 and 210 just had a baby. I have tried zantrex-3 and hydroxycut. They did nothing so know I'm on trim-spa It's only been about 5 days what I do is crush my pills and put them in applesauce. But I do drink like 3 9 oz bottles of water per day. I have noticed since I started the trim-spa I have a lot more energy and I pee alot. But I have also been craving sweets since I started. I never really craved sweet's before so I dont know if this is good r bad. oh I am also allergic to seafood so i was kinda scared to take them that's why I crushed them first and I like it this way. I take 5 pills per day for 2 days then I take 4 pills for 2 and so on. I hope these work for me I have a friend who lost 30 pounds in a month on these pills thats the truth.

Sorry guys, but i think Anna Nicole is an idiot on some type of drug. Every footage I've ever seen of her - be it on tv or in an interview- she's just totally making an a-- of herself. I'll admit I've never been a fan either way and I apologise in advance to those out there who are fans. I'm embarassed for her everytime I see her - and feel sorry for what a messed up excuse for a human being she is. Somebody get this girl some help! Being skinny should not be ANYONE's number one goal, OR accomplishment in life. (just my opinion, but i'm hoping some will agree)

I remember when Anna Nicole had some meat on her bones and some big beautiful full size breasts worth looking at. Now look at her a shell of her former self and those little grapes on her chest. I am not kidding. As for people who credit Trimspa of any other diet of the day...you people are sick. Get over it already.

I'm about to buy TrimSpa, I used to weight 110 lbs. at 5'2" and now I weight a whopping 161 lbs. in a 3 year period of time, I'm now 25 years old. I had always been thin all my life. My metabolism was fast I could eat whatever I wanted and didn't have to worry about it! Now if I so much as breath I gain weight. I'm very active I go to 24hr fitness 4 times a week, I drink 3-4 bottles of water a day. I eat breakfast every morning, I've minimized my portions. I'm praying, & begging to lose some kind of weight and I've really stepped up my game since January & here we are in freaking March and all I've lost is 1 miserable lb. I'm desperate to be my old thin beautiful self again. I can't stay fat like this, not only am I extremely uncomfortable and can't move around like I used to, but I've got high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease in my gene pool, and I know that's what's waiting for me if I don't do something about this weight now. Will TrimSpa Help me HOnestly???

Shmash....
Yes, you will lose weight by not eating - its actually amazing that by starving yourself, you kept the weight off for that long. But guess what? Theres a whole lot of other sit going on inside our bodies that we cant see. We NEED to eat to stay alive! Humans were not born to starve! Survival of the fittest! And this does not mean that you shoukd just eat and eat...it means eat a lot of the RIGHT foods. We are all surrounded by different diets, but guess what else? They `are $$ makers! There is no cure for obesity - everyone is different.
My point is that we all know what foods are good for us. They are not expensive, nor are they hard to get - they are natural, home grown foods, veggies, fruits, whole grains..etc. If ppl dont know this, there is no excuse. Instead of using the internet to discover the perfect diet, or talk about how apparently JEALOUS we all are of Anna Nicole Smith (which i HIGHLY doubt is the case, for anyone with brains, we shoukld use the net to discover healthy foods. Search each one seperatly - blueberries, walnuts - whatever it may be - you'll be surprised of how good this stuff is for ya and what it does that u will WANT too eat it!
The point is...............dont get sucked into buying diet books. That is the primary reason why they are made, to get your $! If you feel that you need to lose weight, educate yourself with the Canadian or American Food Guide and their recommendations - it is very useful, and does not lie to you. Do it for your health - not to look like Anna Nicole Smith! And get your eye off the calendar: live each day and love it, and before you know it, ppl will start telling you how great you look. And you know what else? You will fel great inside, and that makes all the difference.

By the way eveyone...the first entry (Marybeth) has a very good point about Anna Nicole. The weight came off way too fast, and way too "perfect". She may look great but who knows whats going on with her internal organs. Pills may just be a deadly trade off for smaller thighs. Something to think about.

Reply
Carla

Two more things....

Dont starve yourself, people. Fact of the matter is your metabolism slows down to the point where your body stores everything you eat as FAT to keep you alive and warm! It packs on pounds, to protect you - doesnt that tell you something?
And lastly, if u want to lose weight, EXERCISE while eating healthy. Burn more kcals than you consume: you WILL lose weight. Looking for fast results means that you are lazy! Its a sign that you should get your butt in gear!

:) All the best to everyone! And before you resort to TrimSpa or anything in a tiny little capsule - hit the gym.
(one book which i actually do HIGHLY recommend, is 'Body for Life' by Bill Phillips. His challenge is very difficult, but the nutritional information alone will teach yu everything and more!).
