He often eats an omelet with three eggs and chopped parsley on top, but he usually devoured a croissant with a coffee.
‘For me I try to avoid things that are inflammatory. “I was a real sugar addict and I always ate gummy bears in the afternoon or cookies,” she said.

Trinny explained that the endorphins from strength training make her feel like she can conquer the world.
“When you feel your strength physically, your mental strength increases and I think the two are very connected,” he said.
“I only lift 10kg weights, but when I feel like I can do anything, go for it!”
Lifting weights can not only help you burn fat and build muscle, but it can also help improve cardiovascular health.
Instead of Pilates, which she used to do, she opts for a type of dynamic yoga twice a week.
Trinny admitted that she used to be a “sugar addict” but now she barely eats sugary foods.
Vitamin C is essential
Trinny helps her skin from the inside out by taking high doses of vitamin C. She also uses it topically.
‘Topical vitamin C and ascorbic acid are important, especially in Australia where you will have the pigmentation effect. SPF 50 is also required, but apply a layer of vitamin C first,” she said.
‘The only way I got rid of my pigment was when I woke up one morning and thought: I have to take vitamin C and SPF 50. UV B rays cause burns and UV A causes aging, and sun damage can occur through from the window.
“If you’re on a budget, you can try to find a powder form or pure ascorbic acid, but not all skin types can handle it, which is why vitamin C is usually formulated with other ingredients.”
He previously suggested increasing vitamin C, known to treat pigmentation, and introducing retinoids (vitamin A).
“If it’s recent pigmentation, accelerating cell turnover (through retinoids) will boost and break down the pigmentation…unless you have melasma, which you need professional treatment for,” she said.
“Interestingly, my skin is pretty consistent all year round because I put a lot of effort into it,” she added.
‘When you have a smaller skincare routine you will feel the seasonal change more, but when you have a consistent routine with active ingredients it is not necessary. The only thing I could do differently each year is use a lighter moisturizer in the summer.”
Trinny also invests in supplements and takes 25 a day. She also takes a supplement called NMN which she claims works at a “cellular level” and is a longevity supplement.
