In an interview with OK! magazine, the Love Actually star noted that she didn’t like to talk about her weight, but she did tell how she stays in shape by following the 80/20 rule diet.
When talking about her body, Martine said it hasn’t always been easy finding the right healthy eating lifestyle for her, with the star stating how important it is to simply be the “best version” of herself.
She said: ‘I think it takes a long time to figure out what your own recipe is. It’s taken me a long time to go through all the things out there and do what works for me. So it’s not as simple as just going on a crazy diet. “I feel like it’s so important to encourage women to be the best version of themselves.”
Detailing her diet, she added: “The 80/20 rule is what works for me.” For 80% of my week, I will primarily consume healthy proteins, vegetables and fruits, organic juices and vegetables, and Flora ProActiv spreads. And then I’ll have treats 20% of the time.”
She details how she enjoys pizza, chocolate or a G&T on special occasions, noting that she doesn’t feel guilty because she’s doing “good times for my heart” for most of the week.
The mother of one also shared that she stays fit by walking her dogs every day after the school run, and that the outings are good for both “my head and my health.”

“I was so dizzy I could barely stand, I had been in hospital with my CFS and to say Jack held down the fort is an understatement.” His birthday was a total doozy, so I’m SO grateful and glad I got to enjoy it…AND get to see some friends!
‘I’ve missed you so much! I don’t know about you, but I have to plan things last minute because I don’t know what my symptoms will be like and I hate disappointing people. We all live all over the UK too.
“So now I just surround myself with people who understand that if I need to cancel something (and that can happen often) it’s not a choice I want to make and that they go ahead and book something and if they see me rocking out, that’s a plus!
‘I also ask my friends to Google CFS/fibro symptoms. If they love you, it’s the least they can do! Understanding helps with support. So thanks to our friends who came a few hours early!
‘I forgot my sensory earplugs Damn! They are amazing if you are dealing with sensory overload or feel like everyone is screaming (which is often the case with CFS and fibrosis, etc.) But I keep smiling because we did it.
‘Don’t get me wrong, I slept like a rock afterwards, but it was worth it! I wanted to share this since people only see snippets on Insta and life isn’t all fun and games… But I’m not going to wait until things are perfect to live and love my life. Grab what you can! I’m glad this birthday was better honey, I love you @jackmcmanus.
