Jennifer Aniston opened up about her low-carb diet, and revealed she no longer “fears the bread basket.” But Jennifer also added that it’s all about “moderation.”
For years, people have been asking themselves, how can Jennifer Aniston look so good? All her life, the Friends actress has been sort of a trend setter, from her Rachel haircut to all the amazing outfits.
Now Jenn’s 52-years-old. And she still looks incredible. But Jennifer has great care of her body. She loves her workouts, as you can tell by her toned body and arms.
But Jennifer Aniston has a very strict low-carb diet. In a new interview with PEOPLE, Jennifer seems to reveal she hasn’t been indulging in life’s simple pleasures like carbs. She added that, for years, she “feared the bread basket.”
She said: “[I] started to give myself a break, allowing yourself to have pasta, a sandwich. Everyone’s very afraid of the bread basket, and I’m no longer afraid. As long as it’s all done in moderation.”
Of course, Jenn loves her workouts. But she explained she had an injury that prevented her from working out too intensely.
“Back in October my back went out; I’d done a really hard workout, and then one day I tried to get up and couldn’t. I literally fell to the floor and ended up having to go get an MRI. Sure enough, I had a 9-mm bulging disc, which is really intense. So my whole workout had to change.”
She explained that “I was hitting a stage in my life where I wanted to up the health game.”
But now it’s changed. Jennifer said she started eating some carbs. And her body seems to appreciate it.
“There’s something my body appreciates about [having carbs], like, ‘Oh, thank you! Why are you depriving me of things I love?’ “
