LIGHT AND LIVELY

Melody Thomas Scott has been looking noticeably thinner these days. "Thank you!" she says. " I have been using a food delivery service in the L.A. area called Sunfare [www.sunfare.com]. They deliver the next day's food to your porch every evening around 3 a.m. The food is very fresh, healthy and you don't have to think about it. You don't have to buy it, prepare it or put any thought into it. I bring my feedbag with me to work, anywhere I go. Actually, a lot of people at CBS are doing it, as well. As women age, they hit a time when they magically put on weight. That's just nature. Without changing my diet at all, I suddenly found myself carrying a lot of extra weight. I'm not allowed to do any exercise right now, so my food was the only thing that I could alter. The weight has come off effortlessly and I'm very happy with the program.".

I COOK WITH LOVE

..."That Longoria manages to stay slim in the midst of so much cooking is surprising. But, she says, it has to do with the kinds of food she was taught to love as a child. "I grew up eating fish and vegetables," she says. "I don't eat a lot of pasta and I don't like bread." And while on the set of Desperate Housewives, she ignores the craft services table and relies on the food delivery system Sunfare to keep her diet on track. "It keeps me from going off the deep end with junk food and sugars!" she says.

2. CUT OUT THE GUESSWORK

"When I want to kick it up a notch, I get Sunfare meals delivered," says Audrina (Patridge). "I eat 1,100 to 1,200 calories per day, mainly lean protein, lots of green leafy veggies and low carbs.".

What I Ate Today

Celebrity nutritionist Keri Glassman weighs in on The Hills star Audrina Patridge's favorite delivery meal diet: Sunfare

Audrina's Meals

Breakfast:

The star had Irish oatmeal with a handful of berries and a grande English breakfast tea from Starbucks. 

Our expert says: "Quinoa is an excellent hearty grain in place of oats," Keri says.  "Also, increase calcium and protein by ordering a green tea latte."

Lunch:

"I'll admit it, I love ranch dressing - so the fact that I get a little to dip my wrap in is amazing," revealed Audrina, who had a turkey wrap with vegetable soup, and a passion fruit iced tea.

Our expert says: "Great portions!  Also try: canned salmon with 2 tsp. olive oil over whole grain bread with spinach leaves and avocado."

Snack:

"I frequently eat in the car, when I'm running around. String cheese, kiwi and a few almonds are easy snacks to throw in my bag," she tells OK!.

Our expert says: "This is a perfect snacks as long as she watches her portions.  Equally as nutritious would be an apple and pistachios."

Dinner:

"This is the perfect portion of steak and veggies, and with a salad on the side, I am completely full and satisfied!"

Our expert says: "This has a great balance of fat, protein and healthy fats.  Mix it up by trying [super low-fat] bison with a side of bok choy."

HOW STARS HET THIN

BRITNEY SPEARS
She shed 20 pounds on a Sunfare 1,200-calories-a-day meal plan, and now the pop star, 28, loves to flaunt her toned tummy in a parade of itty-bitty bikinis. "She feels more confident," says a source close to the 5-foot-4 mother of Sean, 4, and Jayden, 3 (dad is ex Kevin Federline, 31).

Healthy habits The singer, who's dating agent Jason Trawick, 38, stays slim thanks to regular spinning classes and dance rehearsals, in addition to keeping a clean diet of salads with chicken or shrimp, soups and fruit. And, says an insider, "she doesn't eat dessert."

2009 Best Transformations

Brit beats the bikini bulge

Britney Spears' love affair with junk food has made the pop star's weight yo-yo in the past. But eating healthy thanks to deliveries from the Sunfare meal service (about 1,200 calories a day divided among three main meals and two snacks) helped her slim down dramatically. Swapping Starbucks Frappuccinos for coffee with Equal also saved calories. "I have no sugar," Britney, 28, says. When not dancing for hours onstage, the 5-foot-4 Brit does both cardio and weights five days a week, taking weekends off.

My Weight Loss Success Story

SHANNA MOAKLER
A bad photo motivated her to drop 20 pounds

Four months ago, as the former 110-pound beauty queen was splitting with ex-hubby Travis Barker (again), she saw an unflattering photo of herself online. "I didn't even recognize myself!" the 5-foot-8 mom of three tells Us. While tending to Barker, who was bedridden after surviving a 2008 plane crash, Moakler hit 145 pounds. "He was eating 22 cookies a day, and I ate everything with him, ": she says. To slim down, the single star, 34, had her meals delivered from Sunfare (1,200 calories a day) and began doing one-hour circuit-training workouts three days a week with L.A. trainer Alicia Marie. "I worked like an animal!" Moakler says. "Now I'm 125 pounds, and I lost 10 inches from my waist and hips!"

BRITNEY’S SEXY BIKINI BODY

The singer has peeled off 20 pounds in four weeks. Here’s how she did it – and how you can too!

It wasn’t Robert Pattinson’s brooding stare or Miley Cyrus’ pole-dancing performance that had everyone’s tongues wagging at the Aug. 9 Teen Choice Awards in Universal City, Calif. – it was original pop princess Britney Spears’ svelte new figure.

The Ultimate Choice Award winner, 27, looked like a teenager herself in a sparkling, asymmetrical Roberto Cavalli dress and newly dyed platinum locks (see page 37). "She looked amazing," gushes Backstage Creations producer Tracy Galermo, who saw Britney that weekend, to OK!. "She looked fabulous!"

The sexy mom of Sean, 3, and Jayden, 2, credits her slamming new body in part to the Sunfare diet, a gourmet meal delivery company. Sunfare, which counts stars such as Eva Longoria Parker, Marcia Cross and Khloe Kardashian among its fans, incorporates a balanced, low-carb approach of three big meals and two snacks per day, all documented through the delivery system.

"When Britney is on Sunfare, she consumes approximately 1,100 to 1,200 calories per day," a source reveals to OK!. "Her favorite Sunfare meals are turkey burgers and lasagna, which she actually has more than once a week."

And because there is always room for dessert, the former Mouseketeer likes to indulge her sweet tooth with confections like sugar-free cheesecake about two to three times a week.

Britney, who told OK! last September, "I’m the healthiest I’ve been all my life" – thanks to cutting out fruit juice, sugar and her beloved Frappuccinos – stuck to her goal of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and even upped the ante with a new diet and rigorous exercise regime to get in shape for her Circus tour.

In fact, Britney is so dedicated to living healthier that she has modified her diet while on tour (the show, on hiatus since the end of July, resumes in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, on Aug. 20), since Sunfare only delivers in L.A. and the Phoenix-Scottsdale area.

"She still follows the principles and meals behind it and will start up once the tour is totally done," a source tells OK!.

BRITNEY’S DAILY DIET – here is a sample of some of the meals the singer eats on the Sunfare plan:

DAY 1
Breakfast: Breakfast burrito and a side of fresh pineapple
Lunch: BBQ chicken salad with corn, black beans, tomatoes and ranch dressing
Afternoon Snack: Grilled asparagus spears wrapped with thinly sliced turkey and a honey-mustard dipping sauce

Evening Snack: Sugar-free cheesecake

DAY 3

Lunch: Chipotle chicken wrap with a side of fruit

Dinner: Salsa verde chicken with vegetables and a green salad
Evening Snack: String cheese with nuts and grapes

BRITNEY SPEARS FLAUNTS HER BIKINI BODY

Bring on the cameras!

HOW SHE STAYS THIN
Before her tour started in December, the 5-foot-4 star shed 20 pounds. How does she stay svelte now?

Small bites She dropped the weight eating three meals and two snacks a day using the 1,100-to-1,200-calorie-a-day Sunfare delivery plan. Now, says a source, she follows the same principles – with her own soups, salads, chicken and fruit. "And she doesn’t order dessert."

Fit factor Since there’s no time for the two-hour cardio and strength-training sessions she used to do three days a week, Spears takes spinning classes in her spare time. Plus, says a pal, "on tour, Britney dances her butt off for 90 minutes straight four nights a week." With that activity, her former trainer Seven Boggs tells Us, "it’s not necessary to work out at a gym."
