1. She Majorly Overhauled Her Lifesyle

After her band Hear'Say split up in 2001, Mylene started “chaotic eating” and went from a size eight to a 16. However, she completely changed her diet, she revealed to Women’s Health. Previously she would skip breakfast and eat a jacket potato with cheese and salad, chinese takeaway for dinner, and snack on chips or chocolate. Now she will eat porridge with banana for breakfast, salmon salad or sushi for lunch and pasta with chicken and might occasionally snack on fruit.

2. She Embraces Her Body

Myleene accepts her body the way it is. “I'm not naturally slim. I’m 5ft 5in and I’m not a model,” she told Women’s Health. “Because I’m not a model, I’ve learnt to make the best of what I’ve got – short legs and bandy arms and a long back and terrible posture, but I don’t wish to be anything else. It’s my points of difference that have made me a success.”

3. She Indulges in Moderation

Myleene is all about moderation. “I used to do that whole thing of, ‘I’m not going to go near chocolate’ and all that happens is that three days later it’s all I’m craving and I just go mental,” she told Women’s Health.

4. She Doesn’t Use the Word “Diet”

Myleene refuses to use the word “diet.” She told Women’s Health, “I don’t want my children to have a bad body image so I don’t want them to see me sitting there sucking in my stomach or looking at myself negatively. I want them to see me eating well. I won’t use the word diet. I won’t even call a Diet Coke by its name – in my house it’s known as a DC.”

5. She Pushes Herself at the Gym

In another interview with Women’s Health she talked about fitness. ​​“I love boxing and core work, but hate—hate—arm exercises, so when I work out, I incorporate all three from MyBody by Myleene programme. I tell my PT I hate him the whole time when I push myself, but by the end I feel great.”

6. She Only Does Result-Based Workouts

Myleene only does time efficient and effective workouts. “I don’t have an hour to kill. I don’t even have a minute to kill. Every moment in my life has to be accounted for because I’ve got people depending on me,” she told Women’s Health. “I’ve always been a fan of workouts that make me sweat quickly. We live in a time where everyone wants things instantaneously. I’m no different. Give me results, I want them now. There are a lot of women like myself who would just say they don’t have the time, space or equipment to do it. Kettlebells? In your living room? No thanks. That’s why I’ve spent so long working on the MyBody by Myleene programme. It’s for normal women like you and me, who want to sweat."

7. She Strives to Be Strong

Myleene maintains that exercise has helped improve her strength and pain. “My back has been knackered since the age of 23, when I was in a go-karting accident. Then I had two babies. I learnt to live with the pain and used other muscles, which wasn’t right,” she told Women’s Health. “Modifying bodyweight exercises helped me - and I hope will be a really good example for other women who have back problems. Working out makes your injuries feel better. It’s not all or nothing. There are workout modifications you can do.“I need to feel strong—I’m up and down the stairs with my children all the time and I want to be around for them. I also want to show them that I’m physically able. I don’t want their memories of me to be that I’m limited by my bad back.”

8. She Likes Team Workotus

“It is intimidating for a woman who’s never worked out to walk into a sterile gym and see all of these flighty young 21-year-olds, who don’t have an ounce of fat on them. As you get older and your life, body and circumstance change, you have to adapt accordingly,” she told Women’s Health. “I’ve been to gyms; I’ve tried running machines. It’s not something I fell in love with. I prefer the social aspect of sport. Try it. Work out with your girlfriends or your boyfriend - see what a difference it can make to your motivation when you get your team together.”

Klass says to Express that she doesn’t cut out carbs completely. However, she pays attention to how much she eats. “Definitely watch your carb intake if you want to lose weight.

Klass tells Express that she wants to inspire other women to stay in shape. She even has her own fitness guide. “I wanted to create a programme that doesn’t just show women what moves to do, but to be a long-term guide – it is hard work but it is maintainable, not a lifestyle overhaul but small manageable changes to help women stay fit and see real results. This isn’t just about weight loss.”

5. She’s Consistent With Skincare

Klass has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She tells The Daily Star that she always remembers to take care of her skin. Even when she’s on vacation. “Just because you are on holiday, you shouldn’t let your routine slide. I continue to exfoliate, lotion, exfoliate and lotion every single day – that’s about it. And maybe I’ll use a face mask in the evenings.”

I don’t want my children to have a bad body image so I don’t want them to see me sitting there sucking in my stomach or looking at myself negatively. I want them to see me eating well.

“Definitely watch your carb intake if you want to lose weight. Don’t cut it out all together but because then you only have to look at a potato and you doomed when you go back on them,” she told Express. When it comes to choosing carbs, “focus on eating fiber-rich fruits and vegetables,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Aim for whole fresh, frozen and canned fruits and vegetables without added sugar.” And: “Choose whole grains. Whole grains are better sources than refined grains of fiber and other important nutrients, such as B vitamins. Refined grains go through a process that strips out parts of the grain — along with some of the nutrients and fiber.”

​​"I want to stay fit for my girls and set an example to them. I want to feel strong," Myleene explained to Hello. "I've incorporated boxing into the workout because I love how it makes me feel afterwards." She even released a fitness DVD, MyBody by Myleene Klass, that reflects her workout strategies. "The way that I approach fitness has definitely changed over the years. When I was in my teens I used to dance all the time. I was in a West End show, so I was dancing seven, no, nine times a week in those shows and it was really easy for me," she said.

“I'm not naturally slim. I’m 5ft 5in and I’m not a model.

Lunch is lighter. I’m on the go so I’ll have something light like grilled chicken, and I love salads. Supper is meat and veg.”
