🌿✨ Joanna Lumley, the beloved star of Amandaland and Absolutely Fabulous, reveals her secret to feeling fabulous at 79 – a vegetarian diet! Though she’s been meat-free since the late ’70s, it wasn’t always easy going. Joanna admits that dining out as a new vegetarian was a challenge, with friends struggling to cater to her dietary needs. Imagine being offered eight eggs or a strange lasagne! 😅 But with time and greater acceptance of vegetarianism, life has become much simpler for plant-based eaters like her.
Joanna cherishes those who embrace her diet with open arms, especially when they whip up a delicious veggie dish. 🥗 She’s all about raw veggies and lighter meals, swearing by her plant-based choices for keeping her in top health, saying she’s ‘never ill’. Her love for cheese, however, is the reason she’s not fully vegan yet.
As vegetarianism gains popularity in the UK, with millions joining the movement, Joanna stands as a timeless advocate for sustainable living and animal welfare. 🌍❤️ Her mantra? “Eat stuff, mostly vegetables, not too much.” And as for staying active, she credits her fitness to frequently running up and down the stairs of her tall, thin house.
So, if you’re thinking about shaking up your diet, why not take a leaf out of Joanna’s book? Embrace those veggies and enjoy the benefits they may bring! 🍅🥦
