VICTORIA BECKHAM DIVULGES DIET SECRETS

Victoria Beckham has revealed how she maintains her thin frame - she avoids hamburgers and runs "like a bat out of hell" on the treadmill.

The former Spice Girl has opened up about her health habits, insisting she works hard to keep off the pounds - and she refuses to claim she gorges on fatty foods like other super-svelte stars.

She tells Allure magazine, "I'm not going to lie - I'm not one of those people that says, 'Oh, I eat hamburgers.' I eat salad. And I start off every day with a double espresso. Then I get on the running machine and I run like a bat out of hell."

And the pop star-tu rned-fashion designer has another way of keeping fit, admitting she still loves getting frisky with her footballer husband David 10 years after they married.

When asked if she prefers sex or sleep, she replied, "I'm getting into bed with David Beckham every night, so, you know, there'd be something wrong if I said, 'sleep'."
