for the most part, honesty is the best policy!
”I’m not one of those people who doesn’t have to work at it”
I don’t get it. Is she bragging or complaining?
So many celebs claim they stay fit by eating protein and vegetables, staying active, and enjoying a high metabolism. More than likely, the reality is more like hours of daily butt-kicking with a personal trainer and all-liquid crash diets. That’s why BEYONCE’s interview in the June issue of Self is incredibly refreshing: She admits she works hard to keep her figure looking good.
”I’m not one of those people who doesn’t have to work at it. I can’t eat what I want, and I can’t not go to the gym.
I’m trying to do as much cardio as I can, so if I have a really long day of dancing [in rehearsals], then I’ll run maybe three miles. If not, then I’ll run six.
The truth is, it’s a lot of sacrifice. You have to push yourself. It doesn’t matter what trainer you have. And it doesn’t matter what program you’re on. You have to be healthy and make the right choices. But also unlike some other stars (ahem, Madonna), Knowles doesn’t want to look like an obsessed bodybuilder. “To me, sexier when it doesn’t look like you go to the gym,” she says. “I think it’s important to feel like a woman, as well as look like a woman.”
That being said, she’s not above some indulgences. Her choice comfort food? Krispy Kreme doughnuts. “There’s too much good food out there to never indulge.”
