Inside Scoop: Gizzi Erskine

What was your favorite thing about the detox?

It felt like Christmas waking up and having a parcel delivered everyday. As a chef, I have to constantly think about food, so in my first week of a new show and with a crazy schedule, it was jolly nice to get a break and have delicious fresh food delivered.

How did you feel after the detox?

The detox was great, I felt lighter, lost 4 lb, looked refreshed and could have carried on, by which I mean it didn’t feel like a stressful diet at all. I was full the whole time. I am continuing using the fiber and omega oils in the morning and have seen a natural change in that I am eating far more veg and smaller portions a a result.

Do you have any health and beauty tips?

I drink tons of water and sleep as much as I can, but in my job it can be hard to find the time to sleep. I always cook fresh and eat tons of fruit and veg, especially avocado til its coming out of my ears, but I also think its important to indulge in the things you love. The wicked glint in my eyes comes from a love of good chocolate and red wine. I never want to see that side of me go.
