Former Real Housewives’ Bethenny Frankel Talks Nutrition Diet and Attacks Teresa and Joe Giudici [UPDATE]

Bethenny Frankel, of Real Housewives of New York fame, never backs away from speaking her mind. This is especially true when it comes to talking nutrition, her diet and attacking Teresa and Joe Giudici. We’ve got the latest update in this evolving story.

Frankel sat down for a tell all interview with ABC News. In it, she provided some diet information for those of us that struggle with our weight, telling the organization:

“This is the guiding rule, and if it's the only one you remember, you'll be ahead of the game. You can eat anything you want in moderation, as long as you keep it in balance. In ‘Naturally Thin,’ I say, "Your diet is your bank account." This is the same principle. When you invest in something decadent, you balance that with something healthy, now or later. Balance big meals with small meals, sugary meals with protein and vegetables, rich choices with lean choices. If you eat cheesecake, you know you indulged. Pull back at the next meal. If you ate a giant muffin the size of your ass, you know you just ate a ton of sugar and carbs. Don't fool yourself. Instead of pretending it didn't happen or using it as an excuse to keep going with sugar and carbs, balance it at the next meal with a salad and lean protein. Check yourself.

You don't need to measure. You don't need to eat fat-free fake food. Eat what you want, and be calm and okay with it when you indulge. It's just like money. You make a big purchase when it's worth it, but then you've got to skimp a little to balance that indulgence. You might get upset with yourself if you spend too much on something stupid, but that doesn't let you off the hook. Balance is everything. Know it, face it, and live it every time you make a food choice. Pretty soon, you won't even have to think about it anymore.”

The star also opened up about her feelings towards the legally embattled Giudices, saying:

"My first thought today was, 'Oh, if they weren't on reality TV, none of this would probably ever be exposed.' And it's just funny how certain people are [like a] moth to a flame. It's almost like--not that you want to get caught--but people who love to be in the spotlight often have a lot of skeletons in their closet. It's just an interesting thing."

She went on:

"I haven't paid that much attention. Do I feel sorry for them? No, I don't. Not so much, because it broke the law. You broke the law and you went on television. That's not really that smart."
