During the video, Paulina revealed that she follows a form of intermittent fasting. "I do the 16:8 diet, which just means basically that you don't eat for 16 hours and then you eat for eight," she explained. "I generally take it as I eat whatever I want for eight hours because I like food, but I also kind of tend to like more healthy food."
While she eats healthy most of the time, if she craves comfort food she indulges in it. "If I need a fried chicken, then I need a fried chicken," she said. "It's just the way it is."
The fasting method is "actually really easy," Paulina said. "I did get hungry at first when I first started doing this diet. I'd kind of obsess about food, but then it sort of evens out. Now, I don't even think about it. In fact, I'm not at all hungry until 16 hours later when I do get hungry."
While she doesn't follow a vegan diet, Paulina is a big fan of Splendid Spoon, a plant-based meal delivery service. 'Now, this is going to sound like an [advertisement] for this company, which it's not because I'm not getting paid and they don't even know I exist,' she said, adding that she pays for the food herself. Her favorite offering from the company is a blackberry basil smoothie made with bananas, blackberries, pea protein, basil, lemon juice, dates, and chia seeds. If she is "really hungry," has "been working out, or needs something to hold her over for a late dinner, she will nosh on soup or a noodle bowl from the company. "They have a whole bunch of stuff. It's all vegan. It's really good for you. It's very healthy," she explained.
After eating incredibly healthy during the day, Paulina indulges at dinner. "I do this, so then I could go out to dinner and have whatever I like for dinner — and that includes a glass of wine or a cocktail and dessert," she explained. "This way I don't feel deprived. It works for me now.
It's obviously individual for everybody, but you asked what I did, and so this is what I do."
