The ads for SUCCESS, the company’s most substantial reformulation in years, will showcase Jackson’s strength of character and her desire to help people find a healthy weight maintenance plan.

A fresh and inspiring role model for Nutrisystem, Jackson, 45, has never before endorsed a weight loss product and has done little in the endorsement arena. But she is very open about her personal weight struggles and the campaign is aimed at informing and motivating:

“Dieting never worked for me, counting calories never worked for me, and denying myself the foods I love never worked for me. I needed a better plan, and I found it with Nutrisystem.

“With Nutrisystem I am seeing results already, and I am so impressed by both the thought and the nutritional science behind the program. There are millions of women like me who want to be successful but don’t have the tools to do it on their own. I hope I can help inspire them.”

The PowerCore collection, which will hit retailers in the summer of 2012, focuses on strengthening and enhancing a woman’s core muscles while still delivering upon the fashion-forward style and edge PUMA is known for.

The long-term deal will see Cara in several consumer and press events representing the brand, including the company’s first BodyTrain Together weekend, a full training and wellness weekend for consumers, in early 2012.

PUMA, one of the world’s leading sportlifestyle companies, will also work hand-in-hand with Cara to develop a national women’s training program that focuses on core work-out regimens and activities that build strong, toned bodies, and are also fun and social in nature.

“I’ve always been a huge fan of PUMA. As an athlete, I’ve worn PUMA and always admired them for their attention to creating the right gear for the right performance activities that infuse color and smart design,” said Cara.

“And, as a woman, I’ve always loved their fashion-forward collections – from their motorsport line to their heritage styles to their cute ballerina flats. PUMA is a perfect fit for both my training and social life,” she added.

Thanks to modern cosmetic surgery, the craving for the ideal face parts, breast and belly can be fulfilled via safe procedures. Plastic surgery is no longer a Hollywood domain – proven by the fact that 51 percent of all Americans approve of cosmetic surgery, according an April 2011 survey conducted by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).

Celebrities do tend to form the role models for most in terms of what they – or their body parts – should like. Got a thing for Halle Berry’s cheeks? You can easily get some extremely safe facial implants from a board certified plastic surgeon to enliven your face by filling up any hollow spaces.

With the bikini season just around the corner, many will be envious of Rihanna — polled to have the ‘sexiest celebrity stomach’. No worries here as well. One should be able to put up a decent contest against Rihanna by indulging in a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty). That should help turn heads by not only tightening up the abdomen but also removing any stretch marks.

While there is a cosmetic surgery solution to nearly every part of the body, to many, plastic surgery just spells breast enlargement – and not without good reason. Once again, Hollywood has made the practice extremely popular (remember Heidi Montag?), and breast implants have been soaring in popularity. It has been the most popular cosmetic surgical procedure for three years in a row now, followed by liposuction (removal of unwanted fat), according to data collected by ASAPS.

However, one key to successful plastic surgery, would be to get educated as much as possible about your body, the process and what to expect. While the resources for acquiring this knowledge are aplenty, one needs to trust only some established professionals for advice. One source is plasticsurgeryguide.com.

Ultimately, what it all boils down to is the question of how you want to feel about yourself. If that ugly scar below your ear is bothering you, you won’t really be feeling on top of the world – and that can play havoc in one’s social and professional life.

Thanks to the increasingly safer cosmetic surgery procedures, you are now able to acquire that dream body. After all, wasn’t it the great novelist George Eliot who said “It’s never too late to be what you might have been”?

The upcoming bikini season will see Kardashian use Nivea’s Good-bye Cellulite Fast Acting Serum and Advanced Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream to help visibly reduce the appearance of cellulite and help to increase overall bikini confidence.

“Yes, I have cellulite—that’s no secret. I’m so excited to partner with Nivea to help me feel even sexier this summer,” said Kardashian, face of Nivea Good-bye Cellulite, Hello Bikini! Challenge.

“I saw the great results that my sister Kim achieved when she took the 4-week Challenge a few years ago, so now I’m choosing to do something to increase my confidence and make my skin look smoother,” added the 26-year-old star of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

Magnus Jonsson, vice president, marketing, Beiersdorf, said: “It’s inspiring that a star like Khloé isn’t afraid to share that she has cellulite, and openly tell women that it’s OK to want to improve the appearance of their skin.”

“Nivea shares the same goals and aspires to help women everywhere feel more beautiful and confident, with the help of our unique diet and exercise program and Good-bye Cellulite products.”

Khloé, younger sister of Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, with whom she owns a clothing boutique, D-A-S-H, is also encouraging women everywhere to join her in taking the Challenge to help get bikini confident for summer.

Speaking of being bikini ready, a simple tummy tuck procedure can claim miracles by trimming the waistline and getting rid of excess skin and fat.

And now, with the tummy tuck cost getting lower and the benefits getting larger, it’s no wonder that abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) was among the top five cosmetic procedures in the US in 2010, according to a report from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).

Now, we don’t want to go into what Mandy measured before she delved seriously into a weight-loss program after doing a pretty good amount of research about the mechanics of losing unwanted fat. She also learned a lot about some of the most effective drugs and formulations and workouts designed for losing weight fast.

Mandy also did some research on celebrities and what brands of weight loss products they go for and how they use them. She’d share her findings with me sometimes over coffee breaks – or should I say ‘lime juice’ breaks?

Anyways, Mandy used to say, some of the smokin’ hot celebs such as Marisa Miller and Anne Hathaway, even at 5 ft-8 inches tall, still weigh not more 115 lbs, with a gorgeous figure to match. Surely they to sweat it out and burn out the extra calories every day?

How could anyone probably endure such a hectic schedule and everyday stress that celebrities experience and still build muscle and stay fit? The answer, that Mandy found rather the hard way, lay in the fact that those go through the strenuous workouts, immediately replenish their muscles with protein supplements.

Also, immediately after a serious fitness session, any nutrient intake will be most readily accepted by the body in the most natural way. In other words, you have the advantage that the supplements will be digested quickly and act upon your muscle tissues for an optimum growth.

A number of other agents can also be helpful in getting your protein supplement to the best advantage. For instance, Mandy would imbibe simple carbohydrates from dextrose drinks, which literally act as a catalyst in getting the proteins into your muscles.

While protein supplements are a great way to shape in gorgeous shape, they are also the key to maintaining high levels of energy, Mandy used to say.

So, did Mandy attain her dream shape, I hear you ask. Well, if all goes well, we should soon see her in Maxim’s Top Ten!
