MANILA, Philippines — Apart from their dates and dresses, stars showcased their newly toned bodies at the 11th Star Magic Ball at Makati Shangri-La Hotel last Saturday.
Here is how celebrities from the ball got the bodies they want to fit into their sexy dresses for the red carpet.

“I did not eat rice for two months. It was a burden for me but it’s worth it!” said Sue in a revealing black Francis Libiran.
Though she was not able to work out much due to her busy schedule, she still lost six pounds via diet restriction.

“I had to work out. I had to lose weight. I had to go through so much diet just to fit into this lovely Edwin Tan gown,” the “Wildflower” star told Philstar.com.
Melissa Ricks

From 190, Melissa went down to 160 pounds.
“Kahit ‘di ako mag-ba-ball, I’ve been trying to lose weight for the past three months and I lost 10 pounds so far and I’m trying to lose mga 30 pa sana. ‘Di ba s’yempre on TV, you have to be really slim? But I’m happy with my results so far and proud ako kasi ang hirap,” she shared.
“I go to the gym every day. I eat proper food. I do plana forma. Nag-jojog din ako. Basta my whole schedule for the day revolves around working out and being healthy.”
Though she has project offers, she has not accepted any as she wants to lose weight even more.
“I feel so nervous today because everyone here I haven’t seen for the past four years because I have been gone for four years. I haven’t been active. I haven’t done my makeup like this. I’ve been home taking care of my baby, so ‘yung kaba ko grabe. Pero I’m happy to be back and hopefully make more projects!”
Erich Gonzales

At first, Erich was hesitant to wear a dress with a deep V neckline, but designer Jun Escario convinced her by saying: “Fit ka naman so why not?”
“Ako naman, ‘Sige, whatever!’” said the star of “Siargao.”
“I’ve been working out like crazy for the past few months. It’s also for my work. I play badminton also whenever I have the time… Hindi ako nag-da-diet. Proper exercise lang talaga!”
With a body as hot like hers, it would be doubtful if ex-boyfriend Daniel Matsunaga would not notice her at all.
Vina Morales
Vina
It is already Vina’s ninth ball, but still, she looks as if it were her first.
Besides watching what she eats and working out a lot, she attributes her timeless beauty and figure to having a positive disposition.
“I’m taking good care of myself. It doesn’t mean that because you’re in this age, you have to look good because if you do, you feel good inside. The aura is the most important. ‘Yung aura ng tao kasi ‘dun mo nakikita if the person is happy or content. I guess being happy that’s a gift, the best secret that I can share.”
Jodi Sta. Maria
Jodi
“I was actually not able to work out,” confessed the actress, who is now back to school taking up Psychology at Southville International School and Colleges.
“I just really keep myself hydrated. I exercise and eat right.”
She believes that wrinkles are really part of life. “It’s part of aging. We just have to accept na as we grow older, wrinkles will appear.”
Looking young does her good not only on the red carpet.
“It’s flattering to be called na parang kapatid ko lang ‘yung anak ko!” Jodi admitted.
Arci Muñoz
Arci
Arci might be controversial nowadays for her nose, but she has other assets to boast of, most especially her body.
According to her, she really worked out hard to don an “all the way nude,” Swarovski-studded dress she co-designed with Francis Libiran.
Billy Crawford and Coleen Garcia

For their upcoming wedding, Billy has been dieting and so far has lost almost 40 pounds by playing basketball two to three times a week and following Coleen’s Ketogenic diet plan. He used to be 200 pounds.
“I’m also trying to tone my arms – But apart from that, we’re just trying to take care of our skin because the wedding’s going to be at the beach and we don’t want to wear too much makeup,” said Coleen.
Bea Alonzo and Gerald Anderson

Even before Bea and Gerald walked on the red carpet hand-in-hand, they worked out and dieted together.
“I went on a diet. I exercised, went to the clinic for facials,” added Bea.
During the ball’s first years, she was more “abala” or particular about her red carpet look. Now, she wants to look more relaxed.
She, however, knows that she would go for a daring dress, so she spent more time on skincare than makeup.
Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla

“I didn’t eat much, but tonight, I’m going to eat na after!” revealed Kathryn.
For Daniel, there is only one secret to looking handsome on the red carpet: “Happiness – that’s the secret of life!”
