My diet is not unorthodox. I just eat like anyone else – that’s just how I am. Everyone is different. It is just my metabolism that keeps me this slim.
I think it’s very important to be mindful of your body and actually listen to it. If I’m craving a certain kind of food, I’ll have, but I notice when I’m full. It’s kind of like a logical diet.

It’s been pretty effortless with Sensa because I am not thinking about how long do I need to do this. Usually, when you stop a diet program, you lose control again. But I don’t need to stop what I’m doing. I’m eating everything that I like. Sensa just helps me keep it all in check.

I have had cardiomyopathy, which is a non-coronary condition and is in no way related to diet.

If you think of exercise as a 60-minute commitment 3 times a week at the gym, you’re missing the point completely.

I know it sounds cliche, but you have to find things you love to do.

If you’re trying to diet, what do you do? You grab your two friends and say, ‘We’re going to the gym; let’s do this together.’ Money shouldn’t be any different. If you’re trying to make progress, if you’re trying to save more, we really need to be able to get support.

I graduated from high school at 165 pounds, so twice a year, I get back to that number – I never let it get to 172-73. Then I go back to doubling the cardio. This week, I’m on a complete liquid diet, a juice fast. It keeps me lean and hungry.

Some antiquated diet books will tell you to shun all fats if you want to lose weight, but in reality, it’s not healthy to eliminate fat from our diets altogether.
This is what people don’t understand: obesity is a symptom of poverty. It’s not a lifestyle choice where people are just eating and not exercising. It’s because kids – and this is the problem with school lunch right now – are getting sugar, fat, empty calories – lots of calories – but no nutrition.
The problem with the standard American diet, a primary cause of our current obesity epidemic, is the fact that the majority of foods consumed are high in calories and low in micronutrients.

I did a very stupid diet where you have three food groups, and you never eat them together. It’s so bloody tedious; I’m losing the will to live just describing it. I managed to stay very thin because you spent your life wandering around starving hungry looking for a chickpea to go with a chicken leg.
Most of my diet is low on carbohydrates and fats.
Try to think of working out and healthy eating as a lifestyle. Rather than go on a diet or try a crazy exercise routine, try making them something you do every day.

Our typical Western diet is full of inflammatory fats – saturated fats, trans fats, too many omega-6, inflammatory, processed vegetable oils like soy and corn oils. These increase IGF-1 and stimulate pimple follicles.

I’ve never followed a vegan or vegetarian diet in the past, but I think I could do it. It would not be easy. I have worked with nutritionists who have said a vegan diet is not necessarily all positive for your health, because you need nutrients you only find in meats. I believe in a balanced diet.

Jamie Oliver, quite rightly, was talking about trying to improve the diet of children in schools and improving school meals, but the net effect was the number of children eating school meals in many of these places didn’t go up, it went down.

Though I’m vegan and advocate that others eat a plant-based diet, I know that many people aren’t quite ready to take that step in whole.
The Depression was remarkable because you had nothing, and the salaries, when you got a job, were very small. But you could do anything. You see, a donut was ten cents. A cup of coffee was a nickel.

Compared to when I was 18, 19 or 20, I would say my diet is the big difference. It is much better.

If you go on a calorie-reduced diet without increasing your level of exercise, at a certain point, your body will lose a little weight and then plateau. You need to trick your body to burn more fuel than you’re ingesting so you can continue to lose weight.

I have learned a lot of interesting things about nutrition in my cricket career but the biggest lesson of all is to ensure your healthy eating habits are sustainable. The best way to eat healthily is to think of nutrition as a lifestyle, not as a diet.
While having friends of color is better than not having them, it doesn’t change the overall system or prevent racism from surfacing in our relationships.

Eating a natural diet with loads of fresh fruit and veg and little processed food helps me manage the symptoms of my illness.

I don’t believe in fad diets.

Once you have to start counting calories, it takes away from the joy of eating.

If I go on a diet and work out, I’m always in a bad mood. I’d rather be a little heavier but nice.

Americans get fatter and fatter and buy more and more diet books, but you don’t lose weight by buying diet books – you go on a diet. It’s easy to read a diet book, but it’s hard to go on a diet.
I’m kind of like a middle mix between a warrior diet and a Paleo diet, so I only eat once a day and it’s at night – so kind of like interval fasting. But I eat until I’m full, I eat as much as I want, and I really don’t eat anything that you couldn’t find, you know, 10,000 years ago.
Proper exercise and a balanced diet help you lose weight quickly.
I like having my hair and face done, but I’m not going to lose weight because someone tells me to. I make music to be a musician not to be on the cover of Playboy.

What I tell people all the time is that bodies are made in the kitchen, not in the gym. You cannot exercise a bad diet. It’s just impossible. Unless you want to be the ultra-marathoner or someone like a Michael Phelps that’s swimming 70 or 80,000 meters in a week, you cannot exercise a bad diet.
When I was pregnant. I exercised and was healthy, but it was also the first time since I was 14 that I wasn’t on a diet.

For me, juicing isn’t about binging and cleansing; I try to incorporate it into a balanced diet.
I’ve never been on a fad diet.

I’ve always eaten well and have a balanced diet.
I’m kind of naturally thin, so if I were to completely crash diet, I’d almost be too skinny, and for the VS show, you want to look strong and muscular and fit. Leading up to the show, I eat everything that I normally do, but I moderate it.

I did every diet: Atkins. Cabbage-soup diet. Dean Ornish. But I couldn’t live the rest of my life like a rabbit.

I began researching natural healing, which is how I came to change my diet. Overnight, I gave up refined sugar, gluten, dairy, anything processed or refined, and meat.

Diet cola is my absolute favorite drink in the world; I used to drink four cans a day. But to help me cut down, I’ve turned it into a treat. Now, instead of having dessert, I’ll have a can of diet soda. Putting a limit on how often I can drink it has helped me appreciate it more.

And she was always on some sort of fad diet.

There’s no reason to think that you’ll be capable of loyalty to a diet until you address your basic disloyalty toward yourself.
