Padma Lakshmi

I never Tweet about my daughter. Never. I just want to be respectful of her privacy. My job as a mom is to know when to open my mouth and when not to. ↗

I really like to sometimes go into food detox and eat very simply. ↗

I think eating in itself is the act of great sensuality, so all you have to do is point the camera in the right direction. ↗

I wasn't like those girls who give birth and are back on the runway. It took me probably six months to gain 45 pounds and I would say it took me double that time to lose it. ↗

I work out all the time! I don't just sit around and eat burgers whenever I want. Oh, if I could I probably would, but I don't. ↗

I'm not tough. I'm tenacious. ↗

I've always had a fantasy to write a cookbook, because everyone wants to know what a model eats. ↗
