Michelle Monaghan Focuses Nutrition Around Protein

Michelle Monaghan, who just turned 49, focuses her nutrition around protein. "Breakfast is my fuel for the day. It might be a bowl of goat's-milk yogurt with granola, berries, and raisins, and maybe shaved almonds and flaxseed thrown in, and a banana smoothie,” she dished to Women’s Health. Overall, she isn’t a fan of diets. "I don't think they make sense,” Michelle says about diets. “Ultimately, it's eating sensibly...but if I'm at a restaurant, all bets are off!" She eats salads “three or four times a week.” Turkey sandwiches with avocado and a slice of Swiss cheese are another favorite, and also homemade soup, "broccoli, cauliflower, butternut squash—make a big batch and you have it for days," she says. Fish, including trout and salmon, paired with steamed or roasted veggies or brown rice, is one of her favorite dinners.

Leslie Bibb, who just turned 50, relies on yoga and meditation. “I am a morning person, by the way, so I like to get up early and I like to listen to some jazz.

It just gets me back in my body,” she told The Zoe Report. “I think yoga is like a treat for myself because I do a private [lesson], which is nice.” She added: “Yoga for me has been a really centering, good thing.” She also gets her zen on. “I always try to meditate. I've done a meditation class. I have a mantra. I have it all. But it's hard sometimes. My brain can get a little busy,” she says.

I have some weights in there because there isn’t a gym at this hotel….’ And my husband’s like, ‘Nobody cares!’ But I have to tell everyone why it’s heavy.” The actress enjoys strength training, sharing her go-to workout in July 2024.

But my addiction out there was Thai coconuts - they get fresh coconuts out of the trees, cut off the tops and put in a straw, and I couldn’t get enough of them,” she told Marie Claire UK. “It was full on, and at one point I was like, am I making myself ill? I don’t think I’m supposed to have this much coconut water! People kept telling me, ‘Aimee Lou, you’re having a lot of coconut!’ as if it was some really risky thing, but it was becoming a problem. I couldn’t go five minutes without a coconut!”
