Meis revealed her favorite healthy meals in an interview with GLOSSIP. “I start with a black coffee and try to eat my breakfast around 10/10:30 a.m. so that my body has a chance to burn something beforehand. That's when I usually eat two boiled eggs, a few slices of turkey and cherry tomatoes. For lunch I eat a salad with grilled vegetables, chicken or shrimp and a light dressing. As a snack I have low-fat quark with berries, which is important to get enough protein and good carbohydrates. In the evening I love grilled fish with lots of vegetables, a bit of lettuce and avocado.”
