That panic room he installed should come in handy right about now...

Kanye, as we all know, is fond of the off verbose pontification - no more so when there's a mic within arm's reach - so can you imagine the head on him if he's also hungry? Like, really hungry. Kim's could find her cuddly Sir Rantsalot morphing into one crazy assed b*st*rd. Why? Because he's ditching fried chicken for "three smoothies a day."

The 37-year-old has been banned from eating calorific treats, such as macaroni and cheese and mouth-watering chicken covered in batter, as part of a new diet which sees him eat/ingest/inhale healthy food five times a day.

Harley Pasternak, who is training the rapper, said: "My programme for him covers exercise in the gym, his steps outside, and his lifestyle habits and diet. He eats five times a day, with three meals and two snacks. For the first five days of the Reset diet he has three smoothies a day and two crunchy snacks. A white smoothie for breakfast, red smoothie for lunch, and green smoothie for dinner, made with protein, fibre and healthy fat in every meal, and with crunchy snacks in between. Snacks are either high fibre crackers with turkey, roasted chickpeas or air-popped popcorn or an apple with low fat cheese."

As well as being really anal regarding what he eats, Harley also insists Kanye - as well as his other celebrity clients including Miley Cyrus, Halle Berry and Robert Pattinson (like he needs to lose weight) - email him on a daily basis to inform him exactly what they've eaten and he instructs them to carry pedometers with them wherever they go.

He added to the Daily Mirror: "I tell my clients they have me in their pockets and I have them in mine. All my clients have to do a minimum 12,000 steps per day. They carry the Fitbit in their pocket or on their wrist like a watch. It's linked with their phone so the information gets zapped straight to my computer. They must email me daily saying what they've eaten, how many steps they've taken and the hours they've slept."

Meanwhile, Mrs Kardashian West as she recently insisted she was determined to lose 20lbs. She took to Instagram to post a picture of herself five years ago and captioned the image: 'ughhh I am 20 lbs lighter here! This was just 5 years ago! Ok I'm going back on my grind. I gotta get back here! (sic)'

Um, it was five years ago. And you've had a kid. Move on.
