The Boston Herald published a brief 5-question interview with Jackie Warner today, conducted by Lauren Beckam Falcone, Pop Culture Reporter.
Q: Is it easier to lose weight in the summer?
A: "People tend to lose weight in the summer because their body temperature is more heated, they’re more active, they change their behavior. People walk more, they’re more athletic."
Q: But do people tend to eat more things like margaritas and hot dogs because they think they’re exercising more?
A: "That’s a caveat, but I easily shed three to five pounds once the rainy season is over in L.A. -- not because I change my workout, I just naturally stop eating."
Q: What about working out in the heat? Bad idea?
A: "I think it’s great to work outdoors; I prefer it to a gym. It warms up your body temperature and muscles. I know it’s bad for your skin, but I love working out in the sun, too. Just slather on the sunscreen and make sure you drink a lot of water."
Q: Any advice for folks going on vacation? How do you stick to a fitness plan?
A: "If you’re going on summer vacation, workout by hiking or walking. I mean, snorkeling is an intense workout. I used to only stay at hotels with gyms, but what a waste! I never used them. Sleep, swim, snorkel, have fun and keep it interesting."
Q: What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned from being on reality TV?
A: "That all of this is on my shoulders, and while the Bravo executives may like me and take me out to dinner and value what I am doing, they don’t care if I win or lose. Sky Lab and Sky Sport and my fashion line, all of it is on me, and I have to make it work. You only have yourself to rely on, that’s what I learned."
