White Lotus Star Leslie Bibb in Bikini Is in “Full Swing”

Here are her diet and fitness habits

Leslie Bibb is giving summer her all, wearing a bikini. In a new social media post, the White Lotus star gives her followers a glimpse at her fab-at-51 figure, showing it off in a skimpy swimsuit. “clb summer is in full swing,” she captioned a series of Instagram snaps. “Long live the CLB!” on of her followers commented. “Pretty,” added another. How does the star look half her age? Here are some of her diet and fitness habits.

1

Hydration

Bibb drinks water to stay hydrated. “I try to drink water first thing in the morning. Sometimes it’s hard, I try to get as much water in me, at least like 20 ounces so I can check that off the list. As Sam likes to say, I hydrate,” she told The Zoe Report.

Yoga

Bibb is a yogi. “I am a morning person, by the way, so I like to get up early and I like to listen to some jazz. And then I try to do yoga with my yoga teacher, this wonderful teacher in Los Angeles, Jenny Brill. It just gets me back in my body,” she told TZR. “I think yoga is like a treat for myself because I do a private [lesson], which is nice.” She added: “Yoga for me has been a really centering, good thing.”

Meditation

Leslie likes to get her zen on. “I always try to meditate. I’ve done a meditation class. I have a mantra. I have it all. But it’s hard sometimes. My brain can get a little busy,” she says. “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

Cooking

Bibb’s “new obsession” is cooking, particularly two things. “One is instead of buying cans of beans, doing an old school dry beans: soaking them overnight, and then making my own hummus so I’m not buying it. Doing it truly from scratch, so if I’m making chili, all my beans are dry, and then it’s nothing from a can. Then the second thing I’ve really gotten into is learning how to make curries. I would say that coconut milk, and coconut cream, and curries have become my new obsession in the kitchen. I’m obsessed with making a Thai Curry,” she told TZR. She also invests in cooking gadgets to make healthy eating easier. “My Ninja is my thing. It’s a go-to … And I don’t even think I’ve scratched the surface of what it can do. I make my own pesto, I make my own hummus, the other day I made from scratch cauliflower soup. And this is the other thing, I’m really into making my own broth. I do my own vegetable stock or my own chicken stock. It’s so silly and corny, but I love it. I have a thing about opening a fridge and seeing a full fridge or a full freezer, like the way my aunts and my mom always used to have when I was a kid. It just makes me feel faith, and like I’m taken care of if there’s food in the house in that way,” she says.

Athletic Greens

Bibb told New York Magazine that she loves drinking her greens, specifically Athletic Greens. “The first thing I do in the morning is drink this. I love that it simplifies taking a ton of supplements. It doesn’t have a weird taste to it,” she says. “The color green gets a really bad wrap. Dare I say there’s a hint of vanilla in this, but it doesn’t taste the way it looks.”
