Bar Refaeli Diet
Bar Refaeli’s ideal man is “someone who has family values, has a sense of humor, loves life, is intelligent, giving and understanding”.
“I don’t feel the need to be super skinny, but being in shape is important. But even if I wasn’t in this industry I would still want to look after myself and be healthy and keep my body in good condition,” Bar says.
On working out before the Sports Illustrated shoot: “I always want to look my best on a shoot, or for a fashion show, so I do an extra couple of sit-ups the night before and I drink hot water with lemon to get my metabolism kick-started in the morning and to cleanse my system, but I don’t do anything crazy.”
“There’s nothing worse than forcing yourself to spend hours in the gym when you don’t enjoy it, so I do all sorts of things to work out because I get bored easily.
“I don’t diet and I don’t have an eating plan, but I like to eat healthily. I don’t deny myself anything and there’s nothing I wouldn’t eat. I like desserts - I like food full-stop, but I exercise and I’m young, so everything keeps in check.”
Bar denies dieting before a swimsuit shoot or Victoria’s Secret catwalk show, saying “I guess every girl has days where she feels good and days where she feels she could lose a couple of pounds, and it’s the same for me, I’m generally in pretty good shape, but if I have a major shoot or fashion show coming up and I want to look my best, then I’ll spend a little extra time working out or I’ll stick to eating salads and chicken for a few days. I would never go on some crazy fad diet or eat anything weird to get thinner - it’s just not good for your body.”
On Leonardo DiCaprio split: “I am enjoying everything in my life right now, whether I happen to be in a relationship or not. I’m very busy and work’s great.
Beauty maker Bar Refaeli
Bar Refaeli gives herself home beauty treatments to maintain her stunning looks.
The 24-year-old Sports Illustrated model turns to her kitchen cupboards when she doesn't have time for expensive spa sessions.
The blonde beauty explained: "If I have the time, I'll have a facial or a body exfoliation at a spa and if I'm travelling, I like to have a massage at the hotel to help me relax.
"The rest of the time, I give myself home treatments such as face packs and I make body scrubs with oil and sea salt, which makes you incredibly smooth and gives your skin a glow."
Bar is also relaxed when it comes to staying in shape, preferring to walk and "run errands" than spend hours in the gym.
She said: "I try to do something every day, whether it's a full-on workout or a fast walk, running errands instead of getting in the car.
"It's better to do different exercises, so you work all your muscles. Plus, it keeps you interested."
