Emily Skye in Skirt and Top Flashes 6-Pack – Here's How She Ate Her Way to Flat Abs
Emily Skye is looking ab-fab during a night out. In a new social media post the influencer shows off her famous figure – including her chiseled abs – in a bright around two-piece set. "It was such a fun night dancing the night away, I haven't done that in many years… it was not so fun the next day though. I was reminded why I barely ever drink!" she wrote in the caption. "Gorgeous as always!!🧡" commented fellow fitness influencer Alexia Clark. "You look incredible !" added another follower. How does Emily keep her midsection tight? A lot of it boils down to her diet. Here is everything you need to know about it.
Protein, Protein, Protein
Emily focuses on designing her meals around protein. She starts the day with an egg, spinach and halloumi wrap and then has a tuna, kale, sweet potato and avocado salad at lunch. "I usually aim to include protein at breakfast, like eggs and dairy, which also have a range of important minerals," she told NW Magazine. "A savoury breakfast means I can throw in some vegetables, plus wholegrain carbs for slow-release energy." She also loves fish. "I try to include fish a few times a week for lean protein and important omega-3 fats. I add some pumpkin and sesame seeds for extra mineral, protein and healthy fats," she said.

Food Prep
Skye is a big fan of food prepping."A salad or noodle bowl is a quick lunch option," she said in the same interview. She might also have a berry smoothie or a spoonful of nut butter for a quick fuellng.
Balance is key, says Skye. "I like intuitive eating and to allow myself one or two treat meals a week. It does depend on what's happening though. If I have a photoshoot or something coming up, I'm a bit more strict with myself because I know I have a goal to achieve, but generally, I allow a couple of treats. My favorite 'treat' foods are chips and chocolate," she told Women's Best.
She Changes Her Diet When She Needs To[/slidetitle]
"It's always about what my gut will tolerate. At the moment I'm working through fixing that. I like to eat basics, unprocessed and organic food wherever and whenever it's possible. I like the hunter-gather diet, organic meats, fish nuts, and seeds. I don't have much in the way of bread or pasta just because it doesn't agree with my tummy. My diet is all about how I feel when and after eating the food!" she told Women's Best.
Skye doesn't use the terminology "cheat" days. "I call them treat days, I don't like the negative connotation attached to the word cheat because you're not cheating yourself! I think we all deserve to have something that we enjoy and not worry about what it's doing to our bodies," she told Women's Best.

5 Workouts a Week
Skye works out 5-6 times per week, sometimes at midnight. "Some people might think my progress is due to my genetics or because of breastfeeding but I can tell you it's got a LOT to do with hard work and consistency," she wrote in an Instagram post. "All those midnight workouts I did after Mia fell asleep and eating healthy meals from my FIT Program are getting me great results."
💪🔥Body Booster: Opt for basic, unprocessed, and organic foods whenever possible. Include organic meats, fish, nuts, and seeds in your diet, similar to a hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Limit your intake of bread and pasta.
