David Babaii Gwyneth Paltrow - Gwyneth Paltrow has the magic weight loss wand - the actress has helped her friend and long time hairstylist lose about 135 pounds in just four months.

Reports indicate that 40-year-old David Babaii, a well known celebrity hairstylist based in Los Angeles, who weighed about 285 pounds, has opened up about his journey to weight loss and Gwyneth's invaluable assistance in helping him achieve it.

"I was working a lot, I had a really bad breakup,' Babaii said."It was like my first adult breakup. I looked myself in the mirror and I wanted to start changing."

According to reports, Gwyneth accepted to help Babaii lose weight and subsequently became almost like his life coach following a casual conversation.

"It was during a casual conversation and I said to Gwyneth,'Listen, I really want to lose weight, I want to become better," Babaii said. "She looked at me and said,'Sounds good, what do you want to do? How do you want to do this?' It was just very organic and not in a judgmental way."

Gwyneth was very hands-on in her approach to helping Babaii lose weight - she even chose the kind of food he should eat whenever he was hungry.

"If I was hungry, I would e-mail her any time of the day and if she wasn't sleeping, she'd reply right away," said the popular celebrity stylist. "She would say, 'Try this. I think you'll like it. It's not boring.' She said that everything you do, do it in moderation. She would never say stop doing this or stop doing that. It's like she lead me to it without the pressure."

Besides her acting, the 42-year-old Oscar winner is popular for being a natural health guru. Gwyneth advocates regular exercising and a green gluten-free diet to lose weight and be healthy.

"She had become almost like a life coach," Babaii said. "She always says to me,' Enjoy food.' But I was never enjoying food. I wouldn't taste the food. Now I actually taste it."

Reports indicate that Gwyneth worked with Will Costello, a fitness trainer in Equinox, to help Babaii lose weight till he was comfortable in his size and appearance.
