Shirley Ballas's Festive Food Indulgence Revealed

Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas has offered a glimpse into her Christmas culinary plans, detailing how she balances her typically rigorous health regime with holiday indulgence. Ballas, known for her disciplined approach involving juice diets and yoga, embraces a more relaxed attitude during the festive season.

For Christmas Day, she has opted to order a traditional feast, including beef wellington, roast potatoes, pigs in blankets, and various festive vegetables, opting to enjoy the day without cooking. She also shared that her family utilizes leftovers for fry-ups, extending the enjoyment of their festive food.

Beyond the holidays, Ballas practices intermittent fasting, often skipping breakfast and lunch to maintain her physique, a strategy she adopted after noticing weight gain in her sixties. This regimen, which allows for an eating window later in the day, is a practice shared by other public figures seeking weight management.
