Marisa Miller’s Healthy Lifestyle
The beautiful Victoria’s Secret Model Marisa Miller graces the cover of November 2007’s Fitness Magazine. She talks about her celebrity diet, and workout routine. Marisa’s lean, and feminine figure is the envy of many. Below are some of the highlights from the article.
Highlights
“I used to be shy about [my body] because I was a tomboy, but I was also a size D by the time I was 16. I’d hide my body in big T-shirts and baggy pants. If I was with friends at the beach and I had to get up to throw a piece of garbage away, I would put on all my clothes just to walk to the trash can.”
“I’m comfortable with the curves I have. I like having a woman’s body…It’s not like I’m exercising to be skinny—I’m the girl who needs curves. I like my butt and boobs!”
Marisa’s Model Diet
“I try not to eat carbs for dinner because I don’t like to sleep on a full stomach. In the morning I’ll have an English muffin or Ezekiel bread, which is all grains and legumes, with protein in it too. If I’m really good, I’ll make an omelet with vegetables. And cheese – I have to have cheese in there somewhere. For lunch and dinner, I eat protein, like tuna and a spinach salad. I don’t change my eating routine for the show, I just follow this plan a little more strictly.”
Marisa’s Workout Secrets
“I’ve tried everything. I love surfing: it’s spiritual and physical…I also like Spinning. It’s good toning for your rear and legs. I’ll put in one of my favorite Guns N’ Roses music video DVDs and start pedaling. I find it’s so much easier to work out when I can distract myself with something visual.”
Preparing for a Victoria Secret show
“For the five days leading up to the show, I train with my boxing instructor, Phil Paolina. We do different punch combinations – jabs, hooks, uppercuts – and combinations that include ducking, which incorporates squat-like moves for my legs. We do this in the ring for 10 rounds – each round is three minutes and I get a one-minute break in between, during which I do as many crunches as I can.”
Her Biggest Weakness
“Definitely ice cream.”
Foods She Avoids
“Processed stuff….Recently, I came back from a long trip and [my husband had] gone grocery shopping—which was nice, but it was all TV dinners and Cap’n Crunch. I said, ‘Honey, is there a fruit or vegetable anywhere in the house?’ And he’s like, ‘I got canned peaches!’ God bless him, but he doesn’t make it easy for me.”
