I'll go months without exercise and definitely days without doing anything but I always come back to it." Frankel concluded the video by saying, "I want you to allow yourselves to have, but not beat yourselves up when you do indulge. And I want you to have a good relationship with food and exercise and that doesn't mean being screamed at in a gym or beating yourself up and telling yourself that you have to kill yourself. You don't. It's healthier to just be healthy." ! Frankel's runway appearance comes after she announced her permanent move to Florida last month.
