The Daily Telegraph did a story on her diet and exercise regime last year and here it is..enjoy!

LARA BINGLE has revealed the diet and exercise secrets behind her enviable figure – a daily run, with after-dinner chocolate as an indulgent reward.

The 22-year-old beauty weighs a healthy 50kg – 4kg more than when she met her cricket star fiance Michael Clarke.

But she insists it’s muscle, not comfort, that has seen her put on the extra kilos, admitting the pair are very competitive when they exercise.

“If I’m going to run with him, I want to beat him – and he will also want to beat me,” she told new health magazine Your Body.

As summer nears and many try to get beach-fit, Bingle has shared her exercise regimen and diet, including a personal trainer twice a week, half-hour beach runs and weights.

But, like the rest of us, she also has days when she simply cannot be bothered.

She also eats bread, pasta and chocolate and loves a good dessert, although she tries to stick to healthy
foods such as fish, salad or vegetables.

“Of course, I have days I don’t want to train,” she said. “But I like to indulge a bit when I eat, so I don’t feel as guilty if I’ve trained.”

Anyway, I went to a shoe shop and had one of the tests done where you stand on a pad and it measures how much weight you put on each foot (they have one at most Athletes Foot Stores). I ended up buying a pair of shoes for $330 and have never had a problem since. When I walk it feels like Im bouncing, they have really good support around the ankles!

So if you are reading this and have problems with your legs when you are running then perhaps all you need is a new pair of shoes! I have had my new shoes for 2 years and they are still going strong. I think I can get another year out of them before they look too hideous to wear!
