Sexy star, Daisy Fuentes, graces the cover of Fitness Magazine this month and shares her secrets on staying fit and living a healthy, happy life. The TV host looks at herself and her body differently now that she’s 41 saying,
“That’s one of the best things about being older. I’m comfortable with who I am, and I don’t care about fitting into any specific category or size. I can’t say that was always the case.”
As for her workout, Daisy says,
“I’m definitely not a cardio-machine girl — I have a treadmill in my garage, but I don’t really use it. I need to be having fun, so I play tennis and go for long hikes in the hills just five minutes from my backyard. With my trainer, we mix it up and do different things, including kickboxing.”
Of course, someone who looks like she does at 41 must diet, right? Wrong! Daisy maintains what she calls her “happy diet” that involves
“Thin-crust margarita pizza and champagne. One of the reasons I bought my house was because it has a wood-burning oven in which I can make pizza!”
Now, you would think that looking like this while still eating pizza must give Daisy tons of confidence but she says,
“I’m like everyone else. Some days you wake up feeling great about yourself. Some days not so much. My trick is to always do the best I can. It’s fortifying knowing you’ve done everything you could to treat your body right.”
I’m just loving her healthy attitude toward representing her age and being comfortable in her own skin! It’s so refreshing!

Wow…she’s 41? Sister is looking good. And I love her attitude, too. THAT’S the kind of women Fitness needs to put on their cover more often.
I agree, Jenn! I’ve loved her for years and I’m so happy that she still has that same positive attitude.
I agree, her attitude is refreshing and makes her even more sexy!
She looks so good. and i love that picture- she looks amazing, but REAL.

My goal is to look like her when I’m 41 — especially since I have kids!! She does seem so very down to earth and tries to be healthy without going over the edge.
Doesn’t it, workout mommy??
I was happy they posted a great, “real” picture of her too, Grounded Fitness! I think people identify with that so much more than the airbrushed photos we’re used to seeing.
Not a bad goal, Live well! I think I might adopt that one as well!
I’ve been a fan of hers for years and agree she does look very good. 41 isn’t really all that old either. As long as you’re watching what you eat and getting lots of quality exercise you can look great well into your 50′s. (then it’s all down hill from there, lol)
I think it’s great that she is comfortable with herself. That just adds to her sex appeal.

Daisy Fuentes Stays Sexy at 41,Still looking very hot for age at 41,She Rules this two Sweet……………..:)
When Daisy first appeared on the scene, back in the nineties, part of me thought, “Yeah, she looks good now, but what will she look like when she is in her forties?” Well, here we are – she still looks great, leaving the other damsels of the nineties in the dust (Sharon Stone? Anyone from MTV?)
Such a great point, KXB! Daisy still looks just like she did in the nineties and you gotta love her for that. I really tried to think of someone else to say the same about but my mind is just coming up blank!
I think she looks different from her MTV days – but still fine as hell. She is not a 40-something trying to pass herself off as a 20-something.
I think the reason she is talking about her fitness level at 41 is because finally a magazine is getting real about women’s bodies…she said I want to show it off and show women they can do it. the mag also has a lot of real women in it every month which is why I like it a lot better than the others.
emmyalex – it really is a great magazine and very “real”
