The Victoria\’s Secret model reveals her extreme diet before she hits the runway; no solid food and twice-a-day workouts! No solid food, twice-a-day workouts and no water?! Yep- welcome the life of one Victoria\’s Secret model and her extreme, pre-runway routine. Adriana Lima – a veteran Angel and mother of a 1-year-old – reveals in a new interview with The Telegraph exactly how she gets her smokin\’ bod runway-ready. Two months before the annual VS show, the model hits the gym not once but twice a day – doing everything from jumping rope to boxing to keep her trademark curves in top form. And you know how you\’re supposed to drink 8 glasses of water a day? Well, this supermodel guzzles a GALLON a day when she\’s training hard. But 12 hours before the big show- it\’s no agua at all. None. Lima tells the paper: \”No liquids at all so you dry out, sometimes you can lose up to eight pounds just from that.\” So what does she eat? Salads, maybe? Grilled fish? Nope – try no solid foods for nine days pre-strut! Instead, Lima drinks protein shakes made with powdered eggs. Yummy. So, is all that sacrifice really worth it? According to this model, absolutely. She says: \”Actually, the Victoria\’s Secret show is the highlight of my life. Becoming an Angel, once I achieved that, it was a dream-come-true for me.\” Well, Adriana, props for living the dream – and for admitting it\’s not easy looking that perfect!
