So how much exercise does Kate do to look like that?

[PlanningaMiracle]

I think the Duchess looks fab and I want to know how hard it would be to emulate her figure

Do we reckon she's a runner? A weight lifter? A gym bunny?

Low carb? Low cal? No sugar?

Does anyone have any insider info please

She looks like she eats very little and smokes

I was going to say pippa looks as if she eats very clean, limits alcohol and lifts weights. Kate looks as though she just limits calories, I don't think she looks toned at all.

Surely she doesn't smoke? I understood she had the odd fag at uni but surely not now?

She's not exceptional by any means. Loads of young women look like that - or could- if they ate well and did exercise.

Am I the only person who thinks she looks ill all the time?

I think she's very toned. She has great legs and a very slim strong figure.

Exercise too time consuming?

Because she's out working all the time?

I think she probably eats a fair amount but if all the right food, she's very slim but not "diet" skinny imo.

I dont think it is impossible.
Id say she restricts what she eats stringently and probably works out at home for at least forty minutes five days a week.

I don't think she restricts calories too much/doesn't eat. Her hair and skin are far too healthy looking, plus, didn't she 'produce' babies that were 8pounds+. She's obviously very healthy.

That's not to say that it doesn't take great discipline to remain that slim, I'm sure it does.

Id say she eats on average 1500 per day. She may not consciously be calorie counting but i bet she eats so healthily that she knows it's no more than that. Calorie counting doesnt mean unhealthy. It means resisting the modern world but it does take discipline.

She is minute. I can't think of anyone I know in RL who is tinier than her even a close relative of mine who barely eats and is a size 8 is no where near as thin as Kate.

She looks very thin but let's not kid ourselves it's because she's naturally lean.

I saw her jogging in Hyde park once 😲 this was before her wedding, so guess she still does a bit of that?

I'll add a martial art to the list too.

When I was training for belts plus yoga and gym I ate colossal amount a of food and was just lean muscle.

I think she's looking fabulous on this Polish tour. Does she have a new stylist?

She's far too thin for her natural size I reckon, even given the fact everyone gets a bit thinner post uni.

Serious calorie restriction, plus gym and maybe swimming?

She has the same look as a couple of mates of mine who live on black coffee and fags.

If I had someone who made me scrambled egg whites with wilted spinach every morning, homemade soup for every lunch, fillet of salmon with steamed greens every evening, and someone else who came in and did Pilates am, HIIT mid afternoon and Yoga every evening id be 7 stone as well.

Actually she reminds me very much of the Duchess of Winsor in build and stature.

Her mother is also super skinny. Her father and siblings are slim. I don't see a massive change in her since university. I suspect she would be that way without the royal staff. She may not have the greedy genes and has a super metabolism.

She looks lovely, fit & healthy.

I don't think she's too thin at all. She has a fantastic figure.

I'm sure being a millionaire despite not having done a proper days work in your life, living in a huge house, having a team of staff to run your life, having nannies for your children, flying on private jets to beautiful and exotic places, eating the best food that money can buy, having regular health checks and, generally, living a life of luxury that most people can only imagine in their wildest dreams at the expense of the tax-payer most certainly helps.

I read that she does a lot of exercise and eats a very low carb/low fat diet.

I think she looks fabulous, not too thin, and very healthy.

Her family are very thin too - so it's in her genes as well, which must be a help...

Our own dear queen also follows a fairly low carb diet for health (so I've read) - fish and veg being her normal evening meal. Perhaps a lot of us could take a leaf out of their book
