A Victoria’s Secret Model Trainer Spills On Which Diet Made Models Gain Weight – Delish.com

Trainer Justin Gelband has been called the "model whisperer," so when he talks about the diets of Victoria's Secret models, we listen.

In a recent interview with Business Insider, Gelband opened up about which diets he's in favor of and which he urges his clients to stay away from.

In the pro column: following a Paleo diet, also known as the caveman diet. The diet cuts out processed foods, dairy, and most grains in favor of protein, fruits, veggies, and nuts. (For an even stricter version, there's the Whole30.)

Gelband puts his foot down when it comes to juice cleanses though, particularly if you're trying to lose weight. He told Business Insider,"At Fashion Week, some models went on a juice diet and didn't tell me. Not one lost weight, some actually gained weight. That got me in big trouble."

This is likely welcome news to anyone who's tried a juice cleanse, most of which involve severely restricting your calories (and getting seriously hangry). Here's what's going on once you dip below around 1,200 calories a day, your body starts to hold on to calories, slowing down your metabolism.

It's worth noting that if you're, say, on a yoga retreat in Bali, Gelband can make a case for a temporary juice diet.

"There's a time and place for juice fasting, just not for weight loss," Gelband told Business Insider.

As for his own diet, he told blog Nutrition Stripped his regular meals include egg white omelettes, protein shakes, grilled veggies and lean meats, plus occasional burgers and fish tacos.
