I've never had body issues I've never had an eating disorder. I've never had to go on a diet and that's because of Weight Watchers.
I've never been a huge sweets eater and I've always loved a Mediterranean diet. We eat a lot of dark leafy greens and a couple meals each week are meat-free. We enjoy eating a balanced diet.
Right now I'd love to be sitting on a Greek island somewhere because of being Greek American eating great octopus salad and some fantastic lamb. Or sipping a little ouzo. I think the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest... Lots of nuts vegetables fruits fresh fish lean meats yogurt.
A balanced diet may be the best medicine. I was eating too much good eats. But people consider that part of your job you know? Eat. And I do!
I put on fifteen pounds of muscle so that was a lot of eating chicken and a high protein low-carb diet. Also a lot of heavy lifting and a very different kind of training with an ex-navy SEAL guy who wanted to kill me every time I got with him. In a good way.
I still indulge in a glass of wine or chocolate - treats are mandatory. Without deviating from the day-to-day healthy diet once in a while it wouldn't be sustainable for me and that's what I wanted: an approach to eating to last my entire life.
I started dieting. I dieted dieted dieted and tried all the diets and I would lose and then I would go back to normal eating and would put it on and then some.
Our society's strong emphasis on dieting and self-image can sometimes lead to eating disorders. We know that more than 5 million Americans suffer from eating disorders most of them young women.
I don't go long without eating. I never starve myself: I grab a healthy snack.
You see people who have been very heavy in their life who have taken that body trimmed it down firmed it up through discipline exercise and being able to say no. Eating properly that all comes into it.
