The Real Housewives of Potomac star Gizelle Bryant can add cycling to her list of fun fitness activities. Bryant, 53, shared a picture of herself posing in cycling workout gear next to a mountain bike, ready for action. “It’s been a minute since I’ve been riding around town. I’m super excited! 🚴♀️,” she captioned the post. “Be careful and have fun!” a fan commented. Here’s what Bryant’s fitness and wellness routine looks like.
Bryant recently lost weight after a new business collaboration encouraged her to lose 15 lbs. “I joined Nutrisystem and I’m an ambassador for them and that really, really helped me,” she told E! News. “With Nutrisystem, it gets delivered to your door so I didn’t need to worry about going out and buying all this junk, all this stupid stuff that I was eating… The pounds just literally fell off. I don’t really have a set number of pounds I want to lose. I just want to look in the mirror and feel like a hot mama, that’s it. Even when on vacation, I can still maintain portion control and make smart choices. If I can do it, you can do it!”
Bryant loves swimming, and got her castmates to try it too. “I have incorporated, into my exercise routine, swimming,” she said on an episode of The Real Housewives of Potomac. “So I’m in a pool three times a week. And I know how to make my body better—all of this—by my swimming. Y”all need help, OK? Get in the pool, and let me show you what to do.”
Bryant always travels with sample sizes to avoid overpacking. “I have everything in travel sizes,” she tells E! News. “A beauty hack of mine is that when I go to my esthetician, I go ‘Where are the product samples?’ Always ask for the product samples. Those one-use packs of skincare products are great for travel. So, then I don’t need to bring all of my products. I just have these little packs. I put those in my little bag so I don’t have to bring my big makeup bag. Ladies, when you go to your esthetician, ask for samples. If they say they don’t have them, they’re lying.”
Bryant swears by Neutrogena cleansing wipes and True Botanicals Ginger Turmeric Cleansing Balm for beautiful skin. “I have a lot of makeup on because it needs to hold up under the lights,” she tells E! News. “I use the makeup wipes first. Then, I started using this balm from True Botanicals. The makeup melts right off. It’s soft and it’s kind of oily a little bit. It’s heaven. It works so well.”
Bryant is hopeful about her relationship with fellow Bravolebrity Jason Cameron. “I’m super happy that Jason kind of understands me, gets my life. I clearly understand his life,” she told Us Weekly. “He has been a breath of fresh air and someone that I can just tell everything to, and I know it stays with him. I just am appreciating the time that we have and the time that we spend together. We have so much fun when we’re together, I’m just happy doing what we’re doing.”
