Everyone loved 'Party Kyle'. I think that was the hardest part of all of this. The resistance from others. The old me , the people pleaser, did struggle with that aspect of it. And I realized right away that I wasn't going to have a ton of encouragement." How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Kyle Richards stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
She Stays Hydrated
Richards has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared som eo fher tips with Us Weekly. Richards says that staying hydrated is one of her biggest skincare and wellness tips. "Sleeping and drinking plenty of water is very important," Richards said. "Which is also a luxury when you're filming these shows and you're up all night."
She Uses Sunblock
Richards shared some of her favorite products with E! News. She says that she makes sure to use sunblock. "I initially just covered my face [with sunblock] for vanity purposes, not wanting to age," she said. "I had a scare years ago where they thought I had melanoma, but there was a mistake in the lab… Now, it's for all reasons, to protect from skin cancer and anti-aging. I cannot live without this product. Everybody I know uses this and loves this. You can put your makeup on top of it. I like the one with a little bit of a tint to it. This is the best product. Such a great product. I cannot say enough about that."
She Eats Healthy
Richards makes sure to eat a healthy diet, and shared her favorite options with Us Weekly. "Breakfast is either a protein shake with a banana or oatmeal with berries. For a snack, I like apples and peanut butter or string cheese. I eat raw nuts when I want something crunchy or a healthy popcorn. Lunch is chicken or grilled fish on salad. At night, I eat a lot of salmon, halibut, chicken paillard with arugula and lemon. I like eating at home so I know what's going into my food."
She's Sober
Richards talked about why she got sober in an interview. "After two glasses of wine, I'd wake up and feel [like I was] dragging. Like, "I'm going to skip my workout today. I'm tired, and I feel like having In-N-Out.' It was a domino effect. I was never a big drinker, so you'd think, how much of a difference could it make? But it really does."
She's Prioritizing Wellness
Richards talked about deciding to prioritize wellness in an interview with Us Weekly. "I had a breast reduction [in 2022], and I wasn't able to work out for eight weeks. At the time, I was on vacation in Europe, eating pasta and drinking wine and cocktails. By the end of the trip, I didn't recognize myself. I had also just lost my best friend to suicide, and I wasn't taking care of myself. And [it was] making me feel more depressed. So after we left, I said, 'That's it. I'm not going to have bad carbs — no sugar, no pasta, no bread, no alcohol. And I'm going to work out every single day.'"
