“BUT where it I totally go off roading is when it comes to sweets. I just lose all self control. I”m really working on it because sugar is obviously no good. Sugar is not my friend. And I need to let it go. But it”s a process. Also Not sure how old your kids are, but mine at 3 and 5 and there really is no sitting down when I”m with them.”

Mendes added: “So they help me keep moving ALL day long. Then three days a week I carve out my gym time. Oh! And I take many supplements. Omega 3 and CoQ10 are my two favorites. Hope that helps!!! But it”s a struggle to stay on the path to wellness for me. It”s a daily practice.”

Mendes has been in a relationship with Gosling since 2011. They share two daughters together, 5-year-old Esmeralda and 3-year-old Amada.
