Paige Turco knows that she has to be fit to play her character on the CBS show The Agency. “It’s such a physically demanding part,” says Paige. When she is not on the set, Paige keeps her body in shape with a combination of a healthy diet and a good exercise program. “Endorphins feel great!” she says.

Paige Turco’s diet A typical day starts with a breakfast burrito filled with egg whites, cheese and bacon, plus decaf coffee and fresh-squeezed orange juice. Lunch is a five-ounce serving of salmon or sea bass with steamed broccoli, lima beans or Brussels sprouts.

Dinner at home can include a salad and a steak as a reward for a hard day on the set. When she’s working late, her favorite catered dinner is called “The Paige Special” – a deli sandwich piled high with roast beef, Swiss cheese, mayo and salt.

Paige Turco’s snacks Paige snacks on fresh fruit like strawberries, red grapes, watermelon and apples. She also drinks several bottles of water a day, and she loves olive oil. “I drizzle a bit on almost everything – bread, steak, fish and veggies. I even put it in the tub for a relaxing bath.”

Paige loves Nutella, a chocolate-hazelnut spread that can be eaten like peanut butter. “Sometimes I’ll just dig a spoon into a jar, or make a crepe with bananas,” she says. Other treats include a slice of flourless chocolate cake or some other chocolate dessert – “the sweeter the better!” [via]
