Television personality and cabaret performer Luann de Lesseps has unveiled her top strategies for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Known for her role on "The Real Housewives of New York City," de Lesseps emphasizes the importance of mindful eating, portion control, and staying active. She also shares insights into her successful cabaret career and upcoming projects.
Mindful Eating Habits for Optimal Health
De Lesseps advocates for thoughtful eating practices to enhance digestion and maintain a healthy physique. She highlights the significance of not drinking while eating and controlling portions. By adopting these habits, individuals can better manage their weight and overall well-being.
The TV star suggests avoiding cold beverages during meals, as they can interfere with the digestive process. Instead, she recommends sipping water 20 minutes before and after meals. Europeans, known for their slender figures, often enjoy wine in moderation, which de Lesseps believes contributes to their healthier lifestyles. Additionally, she advises against consuming salads after 6 p.m., recommending cooked vegetables instead. De Lesseps explains that salads, primarily composed of water, can dilute digestive enzymes, making it harder for the body to metabolize food effectively.
Promoting an Active Lifestyle and Cabaret Success
Beyond dietary habits, de Lesseps stresses the importance of physical activity in achieving fitness goals. She enjoys various forms of exercise, from water aerobics to walking, and encourages others to find activities they love. Maintaining an active lifestyle is crucial for staying fit and feeling energized.
In addition to her health tips, de Lesseps discusses her thriving cabaret career. Since her debut in 2017, she has captivated audiences with performances featuring original songs and covers of famous hits. Her latest international tour, directed by renowned Broadway director Richard Jay-Alexander, showcases her versatility as a performer. De Lesseps draws inspiration from her experiences on "The Real Housewives" and her relationships with co-stars, infusing her music with personal stories. Fans can look forward to seeing her on the small screen again in the upcoming Bravo dating show spinoff, "Love Hotel."
