" Recently, I spoke with four porn stars about how they stay fit for a profession that requires them to be naked on camera. One of them, Chanel Preston, agreed to delve a bit deeper into her routine and reveal what she eats on a daily basis. Preston, 28, has been doing porn for about four years. She was discovered while stripping in Hawaii. &amp;quot;Someone asked me if I&amp;#039;d be interested in doing adult movies and I actually thought I&amp;#039;d really enjoy it and I saw an opportunity there to make a career out of it. So I took it!&amp;quot; she says. She won several new starlet awards her first year in the biz and just hosted this year&amp;#039;s AVN porn awards, which is essentially the Oscars of porn. Read on for a typical week in the life of a porn star, which includes cookies for breakfast, diet secrets for clearing up skin problems, and the ideal food to eat before anal sex. Wednesday, February 5 Sometimes I don&amp;#039;t eat until later. I had coffee at 10:30 a.m. and then I didn&amp;#039;t eat until 1 p.m. I had my guilty pleasure \u2014 Annie&amp;#039;s gluten-free mac and cheese, and some yogurt. In the morning, I had to get my car window replaced and I was there forever. I had some meetings that day. At 6:30 p.m. I ate some chicken in my car. Just plain chicken from Whole Foods. When I was eating in the car, I was running around to different things. I had to get lasered and do my girly things. I eat in my car often, unfortunately. And then at 8:30 p.m. I had some shrimp and gluten-free peanut butter cookies and raisins. Thursday, February 6 I had oatmeal at 9 a.m. Then I had lunch with a girlfriend of mine at a Peruvian restaurant. I&amp;#039;m obsessed with this place. They have amazing ceviche. Then I snacked on gluten-free cookies. At 9:30 p.m. I had feta cheese with rice crackers. After the Peruvian restaurant, I didn&amp;#039;t really have a meal. I&amp;#039;m working on a webisode series right now, so a lot of my down time is spent writing and doing things like that. I&amp;#039;m creating a website that will be dedicated to shedding negative beliefs about sex. The industry is supportive. We all know each other well. Friday, February 7 I ate oatmeal again at 8 a.m. I had to work that day so I was at work until 6:30 p.m. We were shooting a scene. I made some sweet potato hash. I like to cook but I actually don&amp;#039;t cook that much. I kind of just throw things together and I&amp;#039;m not, like, amazing. Then I just snacked on rice crackers and feta at 8 p.m. When I&amp;#039;m really busy, I don&amp;#039;t get very hungry. Even if I&amp;#039;m not shooting scenes, generally I&amp;#039;m dealing with a lot of other things. Also, when I work, I usually don&amp;#039;t eat a lot on set. A lot of people don&amp;#039;t like to eat before sex because it makes them feel kind of fat and bloated and they&amp;#039;re like, &amp;quot;Ehhh, I don&amp;#039;t feel sexy anymore.&amp;quot; Saturday February 8 I had yogurt and an apple at 7:30 a.m. and I was working that day, too. At about 11 a.m. I had an Asian salad and then at 2 p.m. I had coffee and cheese, meat, and crackers. It was a break. A lot of time at work we&amp;#039;re just sitting on our asses. I was probably just sitting around bored, munching. At 8:30 p.m. I had kale and corn soup, and I was still really hungry so I also had a gluten-free bagel with cream cheese and gluten-free Oreos. I&amp;#039;ve been gluten-free since November, but I&amp;#039;ve cut it out of my diet before. Especially in L.A., it&amp;#039;s really easy to be gluten-free. It&amp;#039;s available everywhere. I initially went gluten-free because I was having some skin problems. I normally have really amazing skin so I didn&amp;#039;t know what was happening. I cut gluten out and it didn&amp;#039;t get worse but it didn&amp;#039;t make it go away. I recently saw a doctor and she&amp;#039;s having me eat much cleaner. She had me take out any food that causes inflammation like peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, even coffee. I&amp;#039;m trying to stop. Sunday, February 9 I had Oreos again at 9 a.m. At 11 a.m. I ate a mango. I didn&amp;#039;t eat much that day because I was going to a friend&amp;#039;s house and I knew I was going to have sex. And I knew I was going to have anal sex so I didn&amp;#039;t really eat very much. At night time when I got home I had fish and tater tots. It wasn&amp;#039;t that late. It was 8 or 9 p.m.  Monday, February 10 I woke up and had some yerba mate tea at 8 a.m., then at 1 p.m. I had corn and kale soup. I had a bunch of meetings that day so I was able to sneak in a juice at 3 p.m. At 9 p.m. I had swordfish with rice. Tuesday February 11 I didn&amp;#039;t eat till noon but I had seared ahi tuna with a spinach salad. I didn&amp;#039;t cook that. At 5 p.m. I ate my leftover spinach salad and some mashed potatoes. And at 7 p.m. I did snack again on a cherimoya fruit and then some more gluten-free cookies. Maybe I was just running errands that day? I don&amp;#039;t remember what I was doing! I did get a small workout in this week but it wasn&amp;#039;t at the gym or pilates. It was on a Strongboard Balance in my living room. It&amp;#039;s a really cool balance board that I use, and I can do squats, lunges, or whatever on it. Helps me keep toned when I&amp;#039;ve had a busy week!
