" My first girl crush was on Gwyneth Paltrow, and years later, I still want to be like her--or at least be her friend. In between brushing each other&amp;#x27;s hair at sleepovers, I&amp;#x27;d ask her how she stays so slim and toned after having two kids! But you don&amp;#x27;t need to be BFFs with Paltrow to get her diet tips: She just spilled them all over the Internet.A few months have passed since we last checked in on GOOP, Paltrow&amp;#x27;s new website. Oddly, the latest newsletter with her post-holiday detox diet plan mysteriously vanished from the site yesterday night. Luckily, I printed it out before it disappeared! Plus, other blogs documented her seven-day detox diet, too. &amp;quot;I need to lose a few pounds of holiday excess. Anyone else?&amp;quot; Paltrow writes in the newsletter. &amp;quot;I like to do fasts and detoxes a couple of times during the year, the most hardcore one being the Master Cleanse I did last spring. It was not what you would characterize as pretty. Or easy.&amp;quot; Instead of an intense detox, she consulted her doctor for a more moderate approach. She is cutting out dairy, grains with gluten, meat, shellfish, all processed food, nuts, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, condiments, sugar and alcohol, caffeine or soda. So...what&amp;#x27;s left to eat? Plenty of salads, fruit smoothies, chicken, soups and lots and lots of water. I&amp;#x27;ve never considered a detox diet to lose weight. Frankly, I love food way too much, and if I was forced to survive on only water mixed with lemon, maple syrup and cayenne pepper I would probably kill someone--I get that grumpy when I&amp;#x27;m hungry. Which celebrity&amp;#x27;s health habits do you admire? Have you ever done a detox to lose weight? Did it work? Would you do it again? Photo: Getty"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
