Looking for realistic healthy eating tips? We asked three popular Instagram influencers to share what they eat in a day to keep up with their hectic schedules and fit bodies.

First up, Hannah Barrett, known as Yoga Girl London, is a mother of two who loves sharing the benefits of yoga. After experiencing a stressful job in finance and a traumatic birth leading to post-natal depression, Hannah turned to yoga and saw a positive change in her life. She’s since written an eBook titled Strength Through Yoga. Curious about her toned physique, we explored her daily diet and eating habits. Here’s what a typical day of food looks like for Hannah:

– 7:30am, Breakfast: Buckwheat pancakes
– 12pm, Lunch: Poached eggs with boiled sweet potato
– 3pm, Mid-afternoon snack: An apple or pear
– 7pm, Dinner: Veggie stir fry with cashew nuts
– 8:30pm, After dinner snack: Some dark chocolate

Hannah emphasizes that her meals are quick and easy to make yet healthy and mostly unprocessed. She believes in not restricting herself and eating mindfully, enjoying foods like chocolate in moderation. For breakfast, she loves buckwheat pancakes, which she makes in bulk and freezes for a quick meal. For lunch, she often has eggs because they’re easy to prepare and nutritious.

Next, Laura Hoggins, aka @laurabiceps, is a personal trainer, podcast host, and founder of London fitness community Lifted. Here’s what Laura typically eats:

Laura focuses on eating for energy and muscle repair, given her active lifestyle. Her diet is rich in protein, and she always prepares her meals in advance to stay on track. Her breakfast of oats and nut butter provides a slow-release of energy, while her lunch is packed with protein to support muscle recovery.

Lastly, we talked to Rowan Cheshire, a British freestyle skier and personal trainer who also competes internationally. Here’s what Rowan eats in a day:

Rowan’s diet is focused on performance, eating smart around her training times. Her breakfast is high in protein, helping with muscle recovery and keeping her full. She balances her diet with all essential macronutrients and avoids restrictive eating. Rowan enjoys treats like biscuits in moderation and ensures her meals are well-balanced and nutrient-dense.

All three influencers emphasize the importance of listening to your body and eating a balanced diet without extreme restrictions. Incorporating healthy foods you enjoy and being mindful of your intake can lead to a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.
