When it comes to both her diet and workout, Christina attributes her success to consistency. "I'm a creature of habit," she told Country Living.
4. She Takes Orangetheory Classes
Christina is a fan of one particular workout. “I discovered Orangetheory and I’m totally hooked!” she told People. “It combines running, which is my favorite workout, with weight training, which I never do on my own.

Christina eats “a very clean, organic diet,” she told People, limiting gluten and dairy. “I eat five small meals a day that usually consist of overnight oats for breakfast, a green juice for a snack, salad with a protein for lunch, granola bar as a snack and then a healthy dinner of chicken or salmon and veggies, tacos or vegan chili. For a little dessert, I love Justin’s Organic Mini Peanut Butter Cups — delish!”
6. She Takes Supplements
Per Country Living, Christina has a thyroid disorder, so she takes a variety of supplements including selenium, a daily multivitamin, vitamin D, vitamin K, fish oil, and an adrenal supplement for a midday boost instead of coffee.
