Lisa stays fit by running on a daily basis. She shared in one of her interviews, “I’m really naturally thin, but when I started to lose myself in carbs, like when i was 21 and studying in Beijing, I gained weight, and it showed. The food there is delicious and cheap. So I started running, and I’ve been running ever since and watching my caloric intake.”
According to her, eating healthy is also very important. “It’s very simple,” said Lisa. “But it makes you feel better. When I eat unhealthy, I feel it. It makes me lethargic and slow. My vice is that I’m a coffee addict. All I need is one sizable cup in the morning, but I need to have it. It’s the first thing that goes into my body in the morning. I practically have it intravenously! If I don’t, I’m a mess.”
