Boy George stunned his fans on Sunday (17Feb13) by posting a slimmed-down photo of himself on Twitter.com and cooing about the benefits of the Freer Nutrition plan.

The 51-year-old Culture Club star has shed the pounds with a little help from Amelia Freer's diet - and he showed off his svelte new look to followers.

The secret to his stunning weight loss: "5 hour gaps between meals. No coffee or tea, except at meals. Water & fizzy water between meals! No bread, sugar!"

He also posted pictures of his favourite healthy meals, including spicy broccoli cheese and cannelloni bean and veggie curry.
