Why Jillian Michaels Says Much of the Diet Industry Is “Bulls–t”

It’s an edict she happily follows herself. 

Personally, “My diet is really clean,” the 50-year-old shared. After a 14-hour fast window, she’ll cook up two eggs over easy with a slice of organic sourdough or whole grain toast, organic yogurt with berries or her go-to smoothie, a blend of collagen, peanut butter, creatine, carnitine, banana, milk and cocoa nibs. 

For lunch, “Today I ordered from goop Kitchen,” she detailed of the Mediterranean hummus bowl with quinoa, chicken, greens and Greek goddess dressing. “And I think for dinner I’m gonna end up having chicken pho.” 

Michaels doesn’t eat sweets and “very rarely” drinks alcohol, sticking to water, coffee and tea instead. “Not because I think it’s the devil,” she said, “but I just don’t need the calories.”
