As repeatedly told Gagarina in interviews, she tries to eat often, but in small portions, necessarily monitors the presence of seafood and vegetables in the menu, tends to limit the use of fried and smoked dishes, as well as sweets.

But sometimes the artist allows herself anything. For example, burgers, French fries or chips. According to Gagarina, so the body realizes that it is not limited in anything, and does not make fat reserves. And if suddenly weight gain still happens, you can also apply kefir diet. By the way, Pauline refused the rule not to eat after 18:00, but it does not prevent her.

And yet the most important rule of the Russian singer is to want to change and do it.
