performance at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas in 2009, Holly Madison was confident
that with acting schedule as 5 sessions per week, she thought she would have a
nice shape and slim body. She shared, ‘I think I can eat whatever I like since
the shows often consume much of my energy’. However, the fact was that sweet
munchies and free foods from restaurants made her gain 19 pounds within 18
months.
When hearing Peepshow’s producer wondered
why Holly considerably got choppier after joining the show, she was hurt. But
when seeing close-up photos of paparazzi on the magazine’s surface, Holly
recognized that she had to change. She says, ‘I do not want to wear bikini and
depend on photography technique to look slimmer.’
Since hurrying to lose weight quickly,
Holly uses NV product – a supplementing product that helps lose weight. ‘NV
helps me reduce a jeans size within just 2 weeks and helps me get more energy,’
says she. To burn more calories and increase her agileness, Holly also does
Pilates and Yoga. Besides, she carries out eating less carbon by replacing
bread with protein and fruit, or replaces fast food with grilled chiken and
avocado.

that she is very confident in her current skin. ‘I become slimmer and more
balanced. I still have my lovely charming curve.’
