Don’t judge my shakey legs and arms, I’m still new to this but if your like me and hate the gym, I recommend it soo much.”

5. She Got Preventative Surgery

Elishi notably got thyroid surgery after finding a lump. While the doctor would later tell her that the lump was benign, she revealed to MailOnline that she didn’t regret the surgery. “I was in so much shock - bless him to call me directly as well, I just think that was so nice of him, he didn't have to do that. But yeah, the worry is now over and the lump is out. Obviously it's benign which means there was nothing to worry about at the end of the day. But it's always good to get these things checked and taken out because you never know what it could be in the future. It's just a really big safety precaution. I don't regret having the surgery and I don't regret having the lump out but onwards and upwards. The results couldn't be any better - it's not cancerous and that was my main worry.”

1. She Likes To Dance

Fudge is a big fan of dancing. She posts a lot of dance videos of herself busting a move with her friends on TikTok and on Instagram. She posted this video on Instagram, with the caption, “Back like I never left.” "During aerobic activity, you repeatedly move large muscles in your arms, legs and hips. You'll notice your body's responses quickly," says the Mayo Clinic. "You'll breathe faster and more deeply. This maximizes the amount of oxygen in your blood. Your heart will beat faster, which increases blood flow to your muscles and back to your lungs. Your small blood vessels (capillaries) will widen to deliver more oxygen to your muscles and carry away waste products, such as carbon dioxide and lactic acid. Your body will even release endorphins, natural painkillers that promote an increased sense of well-being."

2. She Has No Time For Body Shamers

Being in the public eye, Fudge has to deal with a lot of unfortunate comments about her body. However, she says that she is not letting the haters get to her. Fudge responded to them in an Instagram story, saying, “These comments really don't sit well with me, it's disgusting and people shouldn't be able to get away with trolling. I have always been one to struggle to put weight on no matter how much or what I eat. But do you know what I am HAPPY, HEALTHY & CONFIDENT in my body. That's all that matters! No one deserves to be shamed for their body type or weight."

3. She Turned Her Comments Off

It can be difficult for people to not read the comments, but Fudge found a way to make sure that she doesn’t. She revealed in a YouTube video that she turns her comments off on TikTok. “I just personally feel more comfortable and confident on TikTok without the comments on,” she said. “I feel like some people forget that we're still human beings and I'm putting myself out there doing something I enjoy and I go on the comments sometimes and they're very negative. I don't need that. I don't need to be seeing that.”

4. She Wants to Keep it Real

"I want girls to look at me and go, ‘I haven’t had anything done and she hasn’t had anything done’ – you don’t have to have it done. Lip fillers and things like that are very popular now, but I just think I’m happy the way I am. I would like other girls to look at me and think ‘she’s just like me’," she told GLAMOUR UK.

5. Here’s Her Eyebrow Trick

"So, threading is the way forward – you’ve got to thread. But Mac do a pencil, and I’ve used it for years just for shading. All I do is outline and shade, and then brush it through. I do think I’ll be makeup artist in the villa because I do it for a living. My friends are a nightmare on a night out, there’s a queue of people. It’s nice to have a break from it but I don’t mind, it’s good bonding. I’m a girls’ girl, so if I can help anyone out, I’m always up for it,” she told GLAMOUR.

1. She Swims

Brown loves to swim as a way to stay in shape. Even if it’s cold out, she’ll still go in the water. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself in an outdoor pool in the snow. She captioned the post, “The best feeling.” "Are you ready to take the plunge and try a new fitness activity? How about water exercise? Also known as aquatics, water exercise is one of the best non-impact fitness activities around and just about anybody can participate. Pregnant women, the elderly or overweight, individuals with arthritis or those recovering from an injury can all benefit from the wide variety of aquatics classes currently available," says ACE Fitness.

Being in the public eye, Brown has had to deal with body shaming. However, she tells The Sun that she is confident in herself, despite all the comments. “What the shamers need to realize is that there's a difference between someone who is unhealthy and overweight, and someone who's just a normal size,” she said. “I'm perfectly fit and happy now — just as I was before Love Island.”

4. She Stays Humble

Kendall told Glamour UK that she felt pressured into getting Botox after being told she was “old looking” during a photo shoot. "I was on a shoot – I won’t say what for – but the photographer and the client who had booked me were sat at the laptop screen and kept saying over and over again: ‘she’s quite old, we will have to airbrush her around her eyes, we maybe needed someone with a fresher face’, so I did actually go out and get Botox,” she said. "It will wear off so I’m not bothered but I don’t think I would get anything permanent; I think I would be a bit stronger now.”

2. She Eats “A Little Bit of Anything”

Kendall confessed that her diet “isn’t the best” to Glamour UK. “I just eat a little bit of anything I want. I have a real sweet tooth,” she said.

3. She Paddleboards

Kendall loves burning calories while on vacation. During a recent vacation in Ibiza, she went paddleboarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio. The water sport can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140 pound male and 436 for a female the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

4. She Hydrates

Kendall understands the importance of hydration. Here she is drinking out of a coconut. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

5. She Prioritizes Oral Hygiene

Oral hygiene is important to Kendall. She explained to Glamour UK that while she has been accused of having veneers, her bright whites are the result of her routine. "I just use a gel from my dentist to keep them looking white, and I brush twice a day."

Being in the public eye can be difficult, however, Brown tells The Sun that she has learned to ignore the trolls. "I'm constantly trolled by people asking how I've put on so much weight,” she revealed. “I've learned to live with it. Everyone says 'Love Island's for skinny people.’ While I completely support the idea of putting more diverse body types on the show, people need to remember the way I look now is how I looked in my first audition."

2. She Doesn’t Diet

Before going to Love Island, Brown is open about how she did a lot of working out and dieting. However, she tells The Sun that she quickly abandoned the diet, and encouraged others to do the same.

3. She’s Authentic

In an interview with Boohoo, Brown opened up about her life as an influencer and what she wants to accomplish. Brown says that she doesn’t want to just promote products and looks, but also show her personality. “The stuff I wear, I believe in the products that I promote. I wouldn't do it, but I don't just want it to be that. Yeah. That's not what my Instagram is from. My Instagram's from you knowing me from tv, not from what I wear. That's what I believe an influencer does and there's nothing wrong with that. I didn't grow my Instagram to be an influencer. I grew it because of my personality.”

Skiing is a proprioceptive activity. Proprioception is an aspect of fitness that is defined as one’s ability to feel the position of different body parts and the effort that goes into moving them. This is almost defines skiing because skiing involves quite a bit of balance and coordination. There are so many slight movements and positions of your body that you must be conscious of to ski well. The more you ski the more you strengthen your ability to be aware of the movement of your body parts.”

5. She Swims

Brown doesn’t just like the snow. She also likes the sun. One thing Brown does to stay in shape is go swimming. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Brown posted this set of pool photos of herself in Ibiza. She also shared this pool photo of herself in Meribel.
