Heidi D’Amelio is looking pretty in pink in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the influencer mother of Charli and Dixie flaunts her fit-at-51 figure in a bathing suit, modeling a pair of shoes from the family’s D’Amelio brand. “Wearing pink makes me feel like THAT GIRL,” she captioned the Instagram photos. “Stunning. I love this!!!” commented Jessie James Decker. “Damn mommy,” added another one of her followers. How does the mother look half her age? Celebwell rounded up her top lifestyle habits.
Heidi maintains a meat-free diet. “I am plant-based, but I’m not perfect,” she tells Women’s Health. “You know, a piece of cake will do me in, but I always go the plant-based route if it’s available.”
Heidi understands the importance of protein when you exercise a lot. “Eating plant-based and lifting weights, I always get concerned about not getting enough protein,” she says. “I want to be able to get through workouts, so I need to make sure I’m eating enough.”
Heidi prioritizes hydration, starting first thing in the morning. “I usually start with a huge glass of water,” she tells Women’s Health. “I don’t drink coffee or tea.”
“For breakfast, I have protein oats,” she says. She cooks old-fashioned oats with water and then adds a scoop of mocha-flavored Vega Sport plant-based protein powder and a spoonful of peanut butter. “Lunch will be kind of all over the board,” she says. “I do like a nice big lunch.” One of her go-tos is “this tofu scramble that I found on The Sculpted Vegan,” she revealed. “She’s vegan, she does lifting, and I really love following her stuff.” It consists of tofu with spinach, quinoa, veggies, and sesame seeds or toasted sunflower seeds. As for dinner, “I am a sucker for a good bean burger,” she says. “I like it on a bun with pickles, caramelized onions, and maybe some vegan cheese.” Sometimes she dines out. “I like to see if they have something vegan; I like to try new things,” she says. “[Restaurants] usually have some sort of vegan burger or something like a cauliflower steak. Or, I’ll do a spaghetti squash with sauce red sauce. I love that.” As for a dessert? “When I eat, I always love to follow it up with a little something sweet,” she says. “Lately, I’ve been making a big fruit salad for the end of the night with whatever we have. I’ll put in a big bowl and we all have some.” If fruit doesn’t quite jive, Heidi opts for a bit of a Hu Salty Dark Chocolate bar. “One bite is all I need,” she says.
Heidi exercises, then “I follow it up with a protein shake,” Heidi says. And, sometimes she has one later in the day. “Before bed, I’m hungry again, so I’ll do a protein shake,” she says. “I cannot sleep if I’m hungry.”
Heidi logs all her meals on MyFitnessPal. “I like to make sure I have good meals that are full of protein and will sustain me,” she says.
