Lauren Phillips reveals she’s on a strict ‘metabolic reset’ diet – but admits work has been ‘hell’ due to the constant temptation of free junk food

Lauren Phillips has revealed that she is on a ‘metabolic reset’ diet as part of a health kick.

But the TV and radio host confessed to KIIS 101.1s Jase and Lauren breakfast show on Monday she struggled to resist temptation.

Her co-anchor Jase Hawkins put her willpower to the test by having muffins sent into the studio from a local café, and their executive producer also brought in a bag of McDonald’s hash browns.

Lauren said her morning shift had been “hell,” eating kale and skipping her regular almond latte in favor of black coffee.

“So I’ve decided I’m doing this big metabolic reset, basically a health kick. This morning was hell!’ she told listeners.

‘You arranged this, didn’t you? You filthy beast. I knew it. I hate you!’ she said to Jase.

“Wrap it in kale!” he replied, suggesting that this would somehow make the hash brown healthier.

Lauren added, “I’d strangle a fucking dolphin for an almond latte.”

A metabolic reset diet aims to “reset” the metabolism and encourages dieters to reduce their carbohydrate intake and eat lean protein.

It also requires exercise and a calorie deficit.

In August last year, Lauren revealed that she was rushed to hospital by her airline mogul Paul O’Brien after being unable to breathe in the middle of the night.

‘I feel a little better. But it was scary on Saturday night. I woke up breathless and choking,” she explained on her radio show at the time.

‘The [paramedics] tried to get my breathing back on track but they just couldn’t get on top of it so they took me away [hospital].’

“All the tests were clear, but it turned out to be a serious respiratory virus,” she revealed.

It comes after Lauren recently spoke about her personal life following her divorce from Lachlan Spark in 2018 after a year of marriage.

The KIIS FM star bared all while speaking to the Herald Sun, calling herself a “disaster of a man.”

“The first thing I learned in this job is that your privacy is gone and you talk a lot about your personal life, which is different from any job I’ve had before,” she said.
