Adriana Lima Diet

Adriana Lima Liquid Diet

Lately 30-year old Victoria Secret model Adriana Lima has been defending her liquid diet and twice-daily workouts she uses to gear up for the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. The Brazilian native, who is the mother of 2-year old Valentina Lima Jarić and married to Serbian basketball player Marko Jarić, also says she had twice-daily workouts after having her baby to lose weight.

Adriana Lima admitted that she sticks to liquids only nine days before the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and stops drinking water for 12 hours before she hits the runway to drop the most weight.

On her preparation for the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, Adriana Lima said: “I know it’s very intense but…I just have an athlete’s mind and I appreciate doing this thing. It’s not that I do crazy diets throughout the year. I just do it for this particular thing. After this show, I become normal again!”

According to New York Magazine:

Lima’s daily Victoria’s Secret workouts began in August, and she increased those sessions with her personal trainer to twice a day three weeks ago. (The “really intense” exercises consist of jumping rope, boxing, and lifting weights, she says.) And the diet?

She sees a nutritionist, who has measured her body’s muscle mass, fat ratio and levels of water retention. He prescribes protein shakes, vitamins and supplements to keep Lima’s energy levels up during this training period. Lima drinks a gallon of water a day. For nine days before the show, she will drink only protein shakes — “no solids”. The concoctions include powdered egg. Two days before the show, she will abstain from the daily gallon of water, and “just drink normally”. Then, 12 hours before the show, she will stop drinking entirely.

“No liquids at all so you dry out, sometimes you can lose up to eight pounds just from that,” she says.

For those who want to know, Adriana Lima’s height is 5’10″ and Weight is about 112 pounds. That is very thin for her height. I am glad she doesn’t come up with the usual crap, “I’m naturally thin,” but rather she is honest about how she stays thin for the big shows.
