[She] admitted that her Achilles Heel was overindulgence. Everything has changed now. Sue’s in her mid 50s so it was a no-brainer that cutting down on certain things was what she had to do.”She’s in this for the long game and wants to live a long, happy and healthy life.
The source went on to say that losing weight and keeping it off was important not only for Sue but also for the men in her life, including her partner and son Elliot. The Mediterranean diet is simple because there are no strict rules to follow. However, it does advise skimmers to keep to a maximum.
