I eat vegetarian at home, so I always have yogurt and milk, eggs, whole wheat bread, whole grains. Lots of vegetables and fruit. Cereals and oatmeal. That type of thing.

I take 12-bean soup mixes, soak the beans overnight, boil them up, add tomatoes and flavoring, and freeze it. I'll have a cup a day. It's very nutritious.
I just think a big smile and feeling confident makes you beautiful.
I don't take supplements - I get nutrition from food.
When Elon was 17 and my daughter was 15, they really wanted to move to Canada, where my family is from. I said no, because I wanted to do a Ph.D. in Johannesburg, and I was getting lots of modeling work there. But Elon and I went over to visit, and while I was gone my daughter sold my home and my car and had a big garage sale with all my furniture.
I live by the seat of my pants.
I'm not good at sports, but I do exercise because we have to move. Besides walking my dog four times a day, I go to the gym and do 30 minutes on a stationary bike while reading a book because I get bored, then 10 minutes of weights and 10 of stretches.
I spend three hours a day working on my social network profiles. I think about the right people to tag, the ones who might generate new leads. It's my work, my self-promotion.
Aging doesn't scare me at all. You can handle the bumps each year. They're traumatic when you're younger, and they're hurtful, and you go through some terrible times, and you feel terrible.
I was the oldest model in South Africa - I grew up in South Africa, but I was born in Canada - and then when I moved back to Canada, to Toronto, at 42, I was a grandmother doing front covers. I was the oldest model in Canada.
After divorcing, I left South Africa to live in Toronto. They were tough years. On my own with three young children and no income. I'd cry when they spilt milk because I didn't have the money to buy any more.
If there's foods I don't like, like kale, it doesn't mean that I'm not efficient in my diet; it just means I can eat broccoli and other green vegetables. That's what people don't understand, is that as long as you're having a variety of foods in your diet, you don't have to have the food of the week that's everyone going crazy about.
I don't dye my hair. It's so fabulous. I had brown hair for so long. I was always getting my roots done. Sometimes I did it myself because I couldn't afford to go to a hair salon. When I turned 60, I decided to see what color I am underneath. I started dyeing my hair a very light blond and then I let it grow out. I cut it very short.
Makeup transforms me. I feel like I'm in disguise when I walk my dog without makeup on.
I love smokey eyes and glossy lips.
For most of my adult life, I always had this pain in my gut, but because I had to survive, and I had to pay the rent, I needed the roof over our head and food for us to eat and some clothes.
I have to plan all my meals and snacks every day, or the wheels come off, and I gain weight.
When I go out on the runway, I can feel the audience vibrate.
People always want to know what I fed my kids. I gave them real food, not frozen pizza.
I'll continue working as long as people want to hire me.
I pretty much eat when I'm hungry, and I don't eat when I'm not hungry. That is my best philosophy for maintaining my weight.
I would model when they wanted me, and as I got older, they wanted an older model. I was quite willing to be mother of the bride at 28. I was quite happy to be on the cover of a grandparents' magazine at 42; I have no ego about that.
I'm a U.K. size 8, so not skinny.
I was a perfect mother.
I love a massage - I should go more often, but I think I go once a month.
Ralph Lauren is wonderful.
With wearing makeup a part of my job as a model, one might think I'd get tired of it, but I absolutely love it.
All three of my kids grew up seeing me on posters.
I definitely think the beauty industry is wising up. We are seeing a lot more representation and different people.
I don't care why a client books me, as long as they book me.
If somebody says, 'That's Elon's mum,' which happens quite a bit, they are usually stunned; sometimes they cry. I'm flattered because, I mean, to them, he's saving the world. They just feel he's the only hope.
If you can eat five fruits and vegetables a day, that alone can totally change your diet.
I don't like kale, so I don't eat it.
I like to tweet out nutrition research because I did my bachelor of science degree in dietetics.
I've been on social media for quite a long time, maybe because I've been sending out nutrition information.
You have to know your trigger foods, and for me, it's sweet foods.
Gluten is so ridiculous. Don't invite me to a dinner with someone who is gluten-free. I ruin the party.
I eat the basic food groups: fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, good fats and oils. I do have butter on my bread because it's delicious. I eat meat, especially chicken, sparingly, because I'm not a good cook.
I never told my kids, 'You've got to work hard.' I just worked hard, and they followed my example.
I would say 20 percent of my time is alone, which I love.
I was a science nerd. I have two science degrees. I enjoyed the sciences, nutrition, so I always modeled part time, thinking it would end.
When I go to shoots, the young models are excited to see me. It proves they can have long and successful careers, too.
Makeup does a lot for your confidence. When I put makeup on, I walk taller. I smile more. I feel good. I know I look prettier. Even if I just put day makeup on.
When I was younger, I was mousey brown and started putting in highlights with each child. By the time I had my third baby, I was pretty much a blonde, and I stayed that way until I was in my late 50s.
My parents were the only people to go to South Africa from Australia in a single engine plane... the two of them, no radio... you had to fly down low to see the street signs to know which city you were in... most people couldn't speak English.
I don't do a lot of fad diets or supplements and don't recommend that.
I grew up in the happiest home - my parents were really adventurous, and I was very lucky.
If you try to hold onto the old trends, then you'll look old.
I'm considered a huge model because I'm a size six. But... I had a standard body size for catalogues.
I would say, anyone who knows me says they don't envy my life. I've just been through very hard times, yes.
