Oscar-winner Emma Thompson credits her healthy new look to Kate Middleton’s trainer – and wine.
She has been working with personal trainer and food guru, Louise Parker (the same woman who trains the Duchess of Cambridge) to achieve her slimmed-down physique and says she actually ate a very normal diet while shedding the weight as per Parker’s instructions – including a glass of wine.
“I love that her method is NOT a diet — and is genuinely sustainable — so I can have my glass of wine and manage to avoid spending the rest of the week eating cheesy wotsits,” she tells People.
They’re some sort of corn-derived, artificially-flavoured puffed snack in case you’re wondering.
Parker’s method is actually pretty simple. Thompson ate three square meals a day, two snacks and enjoyed the occasion tipple. She also trained 90 minutes a day, six days a week.
This resulted in an 8kg weight loss over a six week period.
“She [Parker] toughens me up without driving me round the bend with kale juice and the more depressing style of sprout.”
While training with Parker will set you back somewhere in the vicinity of $7,415 for six weeks, in [her new [cookbook](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1784721751/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=people0d0-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=1784721751&linkId=4d172aca3108c023c840c52cc31dc54f), which will only cost you around $20, she goes more in-depth about her method so that you too can slim down like Emma Thompson without, well, going without (or going broke).
