Selena Gomez’s Diet

Summary

Gomez’s diet and exercise coach Amy Rosoff Davis believes in ‘eating like a French person.’ In other words, nothing is off limits and anything can be enjoyed in moderation. Gomez has a weakness for fast food and her beloved hometown Tex-Mex in particular, but she doesn’t go overboard. She has cut way back on the fast food and replaced it with whole foods, and she also drinks plenty of water. Another trick is that she doesn’t weigh herself. She just uses a mirror, and her skinniest jeans, to tell her the facts.

Power Lunch

A hearty salad with turkey, avocado, beans and a homemade dressing of red wine vinegar, olive oil and lemon juice is a standard midday meal for Gomez.

Hydrate, Hydrate

Gomez says she keeps water with her everywhere to remind herself to drink plenty of the good stuff.

Not Necessarily Joyful About Juicing

Gomez has a juicer in her dressing room so she can have fresh-pressed juice right before going on stage. She’s not the hugest fan of the cucumber, kale, carrot and ginger concoctions, but she’s downing them anyway in the name of health.
