She Makes Sure To Get Enough Things In Her Daily Diet
Ryan broke down her diet to Sustain Health. She says that she sees her diet as trying to eat enough good things and ingredients each day. "The way I eat is accidentally quite healthful," she starts. "I have a really inclusive diet, so I don't ever think, 'I mustn't have that', but instead I think, 'Did I have enough veg today, did I get all the vitamins I need, am I eating enough lean protein, did I eat any fish this week, am I getting enough vitamin C in the damp cold of England during a pandemic?' I always think about drinking lots of water and getting lots of lean protein and fruit and veg, and I'm very lucky that I like those things."
She Believes In Balance
Ryan tells Sustain Health that she believes in eating a balanced diet. She says that she still indulges from time to time. "I love big colourful salads and naturally really like healthy food," she says. "But then I also like cheese and fried onions and potato everything, and buffalo sauce, and I really love wine, and a bit of chocolate and crisps. But I don't really eat bread or pasta very often, and I think that makes things easier – I don't feel as tired as I think I would if I was eating loads of bread."
She Wants To Be A Role Model
When it comes to eating and diets, Ryan wants to instill a healthy approach to both to her daughter. "To me, especially as the mother of an impressionable teenage girl, I think the way our mother's generation thought about food really needs reframing, so the next generation can be thinking about what they're eating, rather than what they're not eating," she says to Sustain Health. "If my daughter and her friends want to have a takeaway once in a while, I never say, 'That's bad for you, you can't have that'. I just say, 'What did you eat today that's going to sustain you and is healthy?' And if they give me a long list, they can go off and have a chocolate milkshake, or whatever they want."
She Cooks
Ryan tells Sustain Health cooks a lot of her and her family's meals, as opposed to ordering out. "I moved to an area of North London and we just don't have great takeaways here," she says. "You don't know what's in meals unless you make them yourself, and we're lucky because we make almost all our food ourselves. Even when I'm at work, I take a little packed lunch with me."
She Doesn't Care What Others Think
Ryan has been subjected to a lot of negative criticism throughout her career. However, she tells The Guardian that she doesn't care what people think. "If I'm entertaining people, then I don't mind what Linda from Leeds wants to write about me in her blog," Ryan says. "I think it's unrealistic to hope that everyone's going to like you or even that everyone is kind. Many people are unkind, lots of people love to take offence. Lots of people are wrong, and that's fine with me."
