Serena Williams is officially the Queen of the court after regaining her #1 title and winning ANOTHER Wimbledon this past week!

The tennis Goddess posed for Harpar’s Bazaar and did an interesting interview….here are some snippets!!

On dieting:

Coquette is not the word that comes to mind when you think about Williams. Number one or sister of Venus or muscles does. But lately, Williams has become the queen of lean. After she won the Australian Open in January, “I wanted to get really fit. I wanted to lose some weight. So I’ve been doing Pilates and yoga, trying to lean out my body so I won’t be bulky.” Her regimen: Pilates two or three times a week and when she’s training for a tournament, “a couple of hours of hitting, then an hour or two of cardio and strengthening in the gym.” Also, when she’s at home in L.A., she runs the half mile up a hill to Venus’s house instead of driving. But no dieting. “I don’t even know the D word,” she says with a laugh. There is a training eating plan, though: “Smaller portions of every meal, a lot of grilled or baked chicken or fish, and steamed veggies.” Her weakness? “I can never turn down a good piece of cherry pie, but,” she continues, “all I know is that in 10 years, I don’t want to be as wide as this couch.”
