In this article, we will delve into five of Teresa Giudice's top diet and fitness tips that contribute to her fit physique and well-being, and we have the photos to prove that they work.
1. Get Your Zen On
Teresa is a big proponent of meditation. “Dear Bali, you make my heart smile ❤️🙏#bali #girlstrip #ubud,” she captioned on the snaps shared this week. “When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress,” says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:
- Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
- Building skills to manage your stress
- Increasing self-awareness
- Focusing on the present
- Reducing negative emotions
- Increasing imagination and creativity
- Increasing patience and tolerance
- Lowering resting heart rate
- Lowering resting blood pressure
- Improving sleep quality
2. Go Golfing
Teresa is a big golfer. “Love golfing with you,” she captioned a photo from the course with Louis Ruelas. Why is golfing a great workout? A comprehensive review published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that golf's health benefits are extensive, including mind, body, and even lifespan. Benefits include improved longevity, decreased risk of developing heart disease or suffering a stroke, good mental health, and improved strength and balance.
3. Do Yoga
Teresa is a big yogi. “Don’t forget to take time for yourself this weekend. As a busy mom of 4 I make it a priority to workout with my amazing trainers, Louie and my daughters a few days a week. Sending Love ❤️ Love ❤️ Love ❤️ to you! 😘 #selfcare #BeElectric,” she wrote about a photo of herself striking a pose. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”
4. Eat Clean
What is Teresa’s dietary secret? "The most important thing is eating very clean," she told Bravo. "My diet has changed. I even hate the word 'diet' but I can’t eat carbs anymore. Like, I’m an Italian girl, I can’t eat my pasta — I gotta eat good carbs."
5. Hydrate

Hydration is key for Teresa. She prioritizes "drinking a gallon of water every day" while she is training hard. 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.
