Strictly Come Dancing's Shirley Ballas has been speaking about how she keeps in shape
Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas says she has eaten the same meal for the last six years in a bid to keep slim. The head judge, 63, spoke about her strict eating habits and how she keeps in shape.
Shirley lost 9lbs in just seven days last month on a juice retreat in Portugal and viewers have been praising how great she is looking during her appearance on the series so far this year, the Daily Record reports. "Very good for everybody else. I don't do catering," Shirley told the Sun."I have seen the food at Strictly. I like to walk around the table because they have lots of yummy cakes and sweets and biscuits, and they have all sorts of fantastic food.
"But it definitely is calorie food because obviously the dancers are dancing all day and of course they're young with fabulous bodies." She added: "No. I get my chicken from Marks & Spencer and Sainsbury's. It's been cooked. "Just lemon chicken. And then I cut it, but it's hot and it's just been baked. They bring me a lot of salad and we might have a little bit of sushi in the afternoon perhaps. And that's what I have on Strictly and I've had that every year, every week for six years."
Shirley added that some of her 'favourite' foods that she now avoids to prevent putting on any weight. She said: "Macaroni and cheese, fresh mashed potatoes, anything with a gravy on it, rice with lots of fried chicken, anything - as long as it's not spiced. The only thing I don't do is eat spiced."
