“And I looked super fit. Super, super fit. So thank you for that.”

“It’s the only time I’ve listened to Mark about my diet because I typically don’t like to do what you’re doing,” she stated.
“I just find, you’re like, way too disciplined. I can’t live that way. But for 72 hours, I can live like Mark Consuelos so I lived like Mark Consuelos for 72 hours.”

After all, it helps to have a live-in knowledgeable, because it appears like Ripa didn’t even know what she was consuming more often than not.
“You were there, you were managing my diet,” she instructed her husband on the episode.
“I’m like, ‘I don’t know, I ate whatever you told me to eat.’ Literally, if he was like, ‘Eat this,’ I ate it. And it was great for the 72 hours I had to suffer through it. But they’re talking about daily life every day, if you’re having a high protein diet…”
