A Real Model Diet Plan: Adriana Lima's Diet

Most models would have you believe they eat whatever they like – “I eat
burgers and French fries!” they protest, as if they fall out of bed
every day looking like a magazine advertisement. Industry people know
that’s not true, and so does supermodel Adriana Lima.
For a model, getting asked to walk in the Victoria’s Secret show
is like being asked to be the Super Bowl of modeling. Not surprisingly,
the top models asked to walk in the show, everyone from Adriana Lima to Erin Heatherton, prepare for months and months. It isn’t easy strutting your stuff in lingerie in front of millions!
So here’s what it really takes to be an Angel: Lima, 30, has been
working out every day with a personal trainer since August. For the last
three weeks, she’s been working out twice a day.
We
thought we'd ask one of our favorite models to share her diet over a 3 day
period. Here is Adriana Lima's food diary, from 3 days earlier this year. The best way
to lose weight is to combine diet and exercise, and Adriana Lima exercised on two of
these days.
