Los angeles sunset

Moments : Paris

Paris

Dragging on her Gauloise, she turns her platinum head towards the sun. Ahh. And there it was, the sunset perfectly framing the iconic structure as she drained the last of her Coca Light. What a view. After a year and a half in Paris and more than a dozen trips past le tour Eiffel on her vespa, the sight still took her breath away.

Fumbling in her jumbo cream Chanel bag, she grabbed her old-school polaroid and snapped a few shots for her oh-so hipster friends back in Sydney. Wouldnt they be positively puce with envy, she thought to herself with a smile.

Eva Longoria's Diet and Workout

Eva Longoria shot to fame playing ex-model Gabrielle Solis on the popular TV series Desperate Housewives. The actress knows more about fitness than every other celebrity as spent her days as an aerobics instructor before beginning work on Desperate Housewives. She also has a degree in kinesiology (the study of how your body moves) from Texas A & M University-Kingsville.She has a celebrity personal trainer (Patrick Murphy) who comes to her house 3 times a week for a one hour training session. His responsibilities not only include getting her in fantastic shape but getting her out of bed is the main task! "Sometimes Pat literally has to drag me out of bed," she says.


What Does Eva Longoria Eat?
As she usually works out on an empty stomach she keeps up her energy by having a protein rich meal for breakfast. An example of this would be egg whites and/or a protein shake. "I love egg whites," she says. "My mom made them for me when I was little." She says that its easy to eat healthily on the set of Desperate Housewives. As all of the women are keen to stay in great shape for their roles in the series they prefer salads, fresh fruits, lean proteins and whole grains. Luckily, when you are rich and famous..your needs are catered for at work! The good news is, you don't have to be rich and famous to eat healthy foods at home and at work.
If you want to a body like her, find out exactly what she eats!


How Does Eva Longoria Workout?
The star has her personal trainer come over for an early morning workout three times a week. Before she starts her workout she does 10 minutes on the treadmill. "Each session we do between 25 and 30 total-body exercises-lunges with torso twists and one-legged squats with clean and press, for example-with 30- to 45-second rests in between," says Patrick.
Eva's dedication to gym and her body has certainly paid off. "With all the lunges, squats and leg presses I've done in the last two months, I think I've gained an inch of muscle in my butt."
