Victoria’s Secret model Bridget Malcolm’s eating habits

Between pre-show liquid diets and regimes filled with lean protein and buckwheat shakes, Victoria’s Secret models are famous for their strict eating habits.

And now, Australian VS model, Bridget Malcolm, has revealed that her own Angel physique doesn’t come without some sacrifice.

In a post published on the 25-year-old model’s blog on Monday, Bridget detailed her eating habits.

These include carrying cherry tomatoes in her bag, drinking up to five litres of water a day and going for 14 hours without food overnight.

‘Basically, if the sun is up, I eat. If it is dark, I don’t,’ she wrote of her intermittent fasting approach.

According to Bridget – who has also modelled for swimwear brand, Seafolly – while there is no such thing as a typical daily diet, she will make sure she starts her day with a chocolate-flavoured vegan meal replacement shake.

‘With 20 grams of protein it helps me to feel full first thing,’ she wrote.

If the model is at home, she said she’ll blend it ‘with a banana and some almond milk, but if I am travelling I just mix it with water and eat it with a spoon’. 

Bridget then leaves a certain amount of time before she eats. As she is not a breakfast person, she makes sure she consumes two litres of water first thing:

‘This habit took a bit of training – but it is the best! I aim for around one to one and a half [four to five litres] gallons of water a day, and if I hit two litres first thing, it puts me on track for the day,’ she said.

For the rest of the day, Bridget said she will space out her meals by three to four hours – making sure that in ‘every meal, the hero is vegetables’ – she will also snack on cherry tomatoes

For the rest of the day, Bridget said she will space out her meals by three to four hours – making sure that in ‘every meal, the hero is vegetables’.

‘I hate our society’s obsession with protein – if we were as obsessed with hitting our fibre needs, I believe the diseases of affluence would be greatly reduced,’ she said – adding that obesity and protein consumption are intricately linked.

Bridget did add, however, that with every meal she will make sure she has a serving of tofu or beans. 

‘I hate our society’s obsession with protein – if we were as obsessed with hitting our fibre needs, I believe the diseases of affluence would be greatly reduced,’ she said 

The model also swears by nuts and beans – which she describes as ‘life extenders’ on her blog

Lastly, when it comes to snacks – the 25-year-old swears by tomatoes.

‘I always carry cherry tomatoes with me. If I am hungry and food is far away, or flying, or in a non-vegan friendly environment, I make sure I have some tomatoes to eat,’ she wrote.

Bridget also swears by the ‘life extenders’ – nuts and beans.

‘If I crave it, I eat it!,’ she said. ‘If I want some vegan ice cream, or sweet potato fries I go for it. Life is short and food rules!’.
