Get Fit With Brooke Burke: What She Eats In A Day

In an interview with Women’s Health, Burke said, “I've been intermittent fasting for years and it's been a game-changer for me, not only digestively, but it's also the most convenient way of living I've experienced. I make it very simple and basically eat in an eight-hour window.”

That doesn’t mean she deprives herself of delicious food, though. “The way that I eat is smart and conscious; I don't skimp on flavor and I'm not hungry,” she added. “It's been the best program that I've ever found.”

What does a day of eating look like for the Dancing with the Stars alum? First, she doesn’t have breakfast but takes coffee instead, and adding butter or cream to it makes her feel fuller.

She also drinks “a lot of water, a lot of green tea, and a lot of lemon water; no sugary drinks,” she said. “I probably drink my body weight in water every day.”

Burke’s eight-hour eating window starts around lunchtime. By then, she’s also done with her morning exercise so one option is to make a post-workout shake, which includes stuff like almond butter, MCT oil, and peanut butter collagen protein, among other healthy ingredients.

Another lunch option is a “high-protein, high-fat” salad – a Cobb salad, for example, “with bacon and chicken and cheese, and I'll make homemade dressing,” she said.

Snack, meanwhile, usually consists of nuts, an avocado with salad dressing, or a matcha latte.

Towards the end of her eight-hour eating window, the fitness expert eats a dinner consisting of “grilled salmon with vegetables and another big salad.” Alternatively, she reaches for other fish or filet mignon to pack on the proteins, and she also likes blending up leftover veggies into a soup.

Her meals are generally healthy but she doesn’t deprive herself of the occasional treat. “My regular routine is pretty disciplined, but if I'm craving pizza, I'll have it,” she said. And she also likes a glass of wine with dinner.
