Anyone who has seen La La Land will know that Emma Stone can certainly dance. However, whilst her and her overtly beautiful co-star Ryan Gosling made it look effortlessly easy, anyone who has ever tried ballet (or even a Zumba class) knows that it’s certainly not as painless as it looks.

Limit sugars
“I limit all sugars, and I add UDO’s Choice Oil to food daily for essential fats. That’s where I get my energy from, no sugar. You could lose 10lbs immediately just from cutting out sugar.”
