Eva is a believer in keeping it simple when it comes to focusing on protein and veggies. And when she needs to lose weight, Longoria revealed that she cuts out all sugar and starchy carbohydrates such as bread and pasta.
“I’m definitely a moderation girl, but sometimes I won’t eat sugar for three months. I’ll cut out all sugar and simple carbs that turn into sugar—rice, pasta, bread. I’m not a big carb person anyway, so it’s not that hard. I actually love fish and vegetables,” she exclaimed.
In addition, Eva burns off the calories by running. Longoria pointed out that she can easily maintain her bikini body at 40 without a gym by just jogging anywhere in the world, reported E News .
“I’m a runner. I don’t need a gym, I’ll go run anywhere. I was in Australia, Budapest and Paris…In Australia and I went running around the botanical gardens and when I got to Paris I ran around the Eiffel tower,” revealed Eva.
And when it comes to combining fun with fitness, Longoria regards it as the best.
“It’s truly one of the best forms of exercising and the best thing to do while traveling because you get to sight-seeing and as I’m running I was really standing under the Eiffel tower at seven in the morning going ‘this is so cool!’”
