November 3rd, 2009 by Rian | Filed under Misc Celebs & Diet News.Former actress Elizabeth Hurley launched her new organic snack line for Harrod’s department store in London yesterday. Her product line consists of fruit bars, oat bars and beef jerky, all just under 100 calories each.

Elizabeth – who resigned from acting after she had her son – admits that she now weighs about seven pounds more than she did in her acting days.
[...] As someone who has had to spend most of her adult life watching her weight (she looks enviably svelte in her trademark white jeans, although she claims she is seven pounds heavier than when she was a working actress), she is something of an expert on careful snacking.
Her first organic products – oat and fruit snack bars and beef jerky (sourced in part from her own cattle) – are all approved by the Soil Association and are just under 100 calories each.
‘I have never eaten six raisins a day with a child’s knife and fork, or any of the other ridiculous things I have read about myself, but I am heavier than in my movie years. There is a huge change in your metabolism after 40 and for the first time ever I am having to watch what I eat because I’m quite greedy by nature,’ she says with a long, low self-deprecating laugh.

I think she still looks good
looks fab!
gorgeous. healthy, natural and I lover her dress.
Those 7 pounds must be phantom pounds, because she always looks the same to me! Love her.
STUNNING!
Her body was amazing in the movie bedazzled and after all these years she is still gorgeous
shes amazing!!her outfit is cute!
hey can you do the recent pictures of jewel in a purple bikini? thankx
She looks good! I have always liked her honesty that she eats and works hard for her figure.
She’s beautiful, and she looks fit. Funny bit about the 6 raisins and child’s utensil’s. Who writes that stuff??? I do protest about the metabolism change after 40. Everyone in my family and plenty of my friends over 40 have the same metabolism they’ve always had, and they don’t obsess over food. I think that’s the real difference.
she looks so great, i remeber the story about 6 raisons, and i thought ‘oh god is that what im gonna have to do when im older’
Gorgeous.
she’s smart to realize that the extra weight makes her look so much better than if she tried to starve down to her younger self. And she has talked frankly about getting older before. I remember her saying that she can’t sit around the pool in a bikini any longer and so she’s designed sexy one-piece suits. Very smart.
Every now and then she gets in the news paper, why? well i don’t know, since she hasn’t done anything in ages, anyway she still good looking and I’m liking what she is wearing minus the clutch.
She looks great. Pretty color on the dress, but those dresses are so common now that they are as boring as a black sheath.
She still looks really great. Loved her in her “safety pin” dress from years back. She also seems to have none or gone light on the plastic surgery. Can’t stand to see a beautiful woman looking like she’s half plastic.
Oh gosh she still looks incredible! 7 pound gain or whatever she looks amazzzzzzzing!!!!!
She looks fantastic! Dress is lovely. I hope I look as good at 40.
She looks fantastic — wow. But would seven pounds even matter on a tall person such as Ms. Hurley? Love the dress — simple, but interesting.
A very classy lady, and I don’t see the extra 7 pounds either.
She looks happy. Beautiful hair, killer eyes.
She looks great. This woman is not going to age.
Saw her in person in Seattle last year–her skin is luminous. So beautiful.
So how old is she now? She looks good however I don’t think her dress is very flattering to her.
MILF!!!!!!
Her face looks a bit rough. But her body is great for her age.
I wouldn’t mind looking like that now, at 18. Sheesh.
She looks kind of like Lauren Graham to me.
I hope I´ll look at leat half as good as her when I´m forty…Gorgeous
She’s gorgeous!
@Maxx How can you disagree on weight gain at 40? It’s a proven scientific fact that your metabolism slows down with age. If you don’t eat less or exercise accordingly you will gain weight as you age. That being said, she looks smashing.
Oh no! Seven pounds?!
She still looks great. I like that color on her. I’ve always wondered what Hugh Grant was thinking when he cheated on her with Divine Brown or whatever her name is.
she is gorge
beautiful face and body
To whomever said she doesn’t do anything, that’s not true. She does a lot of things still, just not in front of the camera. She has her own production company and and a bathing suit line she designs herself.
She’s stunning. But I do remember a story after she had her baby that she locked herself in Elton John’s house until she lost her baby weight. Don’t know how true, but I thought is was kind of funny.
Ive never been able to see what the fuss is about her, she is quite ordinary if you ask me. Useless actress too!
Lisa S. – it’s not a “proven fact” that people’s metabolism slows down with age. What IS a proven fact is that people tend to move a lot less as they age, and they don’t decrease their caloric intake to compensate. Therefore, they gain weight.
It’s not true that everyone needs to gain weight after the age of forty (and I know this to be true, as I am in my forties). My mother, who is 78, is in great shape because she has nothing to prevent her from being active.
As long as one does some kind of weight-bearing exercise on a regular basis and eats a healthy diet, there is no need to pile on pounds.
beef jerky? amazing figure though
she stilll looks amazing!
Looks good as usual. but she has quite heavy calves….
She still has it! She just needs to pick better dresses. I haven’t liked anything she’s worn lately.
I don’t know that the slower metabolism after 40 is a proven scientific fact for everyone. Everyone has different metabolisms to begin with, different genetics, everyone makes different choices regarding diet and exercise, so it’s natural that different people’s metabolisms would respond differently as they age. Most people’s metabolisms do slow down to some degree as they age however, maybe not perceptibly at 40 though.
She looks fantastic, and not just for her age. I’m sure most women would appreciate looking like her.
Nice.
She looks terrific! I like the dress
and her legs are awesome.
AMAZING for her age. Well done.
She looks amazing, 40 or not!!! If I can look half that good in a few years I will buy her snacks too. I like that she seems to be aging more naturally too.
I love her. Very feminine. She doesn’t try to show off in the public. She’s always beautiful.
something i wanted to say for a while.
i do believe it is harder for women to lose weight after a certain age psychologically, biolically, and physically.(havening studied this) However it may be harder it doesn’t mean it is not possable to do so and your absolutely right with diet and exersize. But age is certainly a factor. We cannot just blame weight game obesity, and poor health on age…but a forty year old has a much harder time losing weight than 25 year old. as i am having at 24 then when i was 14 to be honest. most bodies change..maybe your didn’t but mine did.
may i look this good at forty…..
I love beef jerky but I stay away from snacks. I think she should too.
I’m ancient and my metabolism hasn’t slowed down. I weigh what I weighed in high school and with the same amount of effort.
Liz looks good but for some reason she’s always kind of annoyed me.
@Jordanna- Exactly what i was going to say!
What is she doing in the second picute? stepping on something? She looks so pretty and i dont think i see any weight gain at all. pretty hair too
Lovely Liz.
Healthy, beautiful, sexy woman. Always looks good IMO. I prefer her natural look(jeans and jumper), rather than her red carpet look. Although it makes a nice change to see her in a dress not split to the hip.
Great natural hair too.
She looks fab!, I love her hair colour and style!
Ouch!! Shoes look a little tight.
still a beauty
She looks fantastic! Even young girls must be jealous!
@Annie It is a proven fact your metabolism slows down with age. I perform those studies and peer-review that information. I have a medical degree and get the information first-hand. You can research it if you don’t believe me.
Perhaps some people’s metabolisms slow down after 40, but it hasn’t happened to anyone in my family. My Mom is 73, 92lbs, 5′2″. Dad is 79 5′8″ 140 lbs.My sis is 42, 5′4″, 102lbs. I’m 46 in 2 weeks, 5′3″ and am under 90lbs. None of us can gain weight even when we’ve really tried. We all have fast metabolisms, tho there isn’t any disorder that requires medication. It is not a fact that all people will have their metabolisms slow as you age. As I said in my last comment, I have other friends, all over 40 that are like this too. None of us are food obsessed, no dieting or history of diets. Liz seems to have always focused what she’s eating which may be the problem. Eat good nutritious food when you’re hungry, stop when you’re full. There you go.
Elizabeth Hurley has always been in my opinion one of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood. She is just naturally beautiful and I feel like that’s such a rare find with all the great makeup artists and stylists, etc. who touch everyone up.
Love this woman! I wish I was in the UK so I could try her snacks
Also…I can’t even tell she’s heavier than in her acting days.
Personally im not sure if the after 40’s slow metabolism thing is true anymore. My mum is 44 and a size 2 and she eats healthy but she isn’t obsessed and doesn’t work out at all. She is also thinner than she was in her 30’s. But it’s not like she is a couch potato. Maybe it’s cause she is still a busy woman at 44???
Im not sure I believe in the whole slow metabolism thing either cause my mum is 44 is a size 2 (5.3″ and 49Kg)and is thinner than she was in her 30’s. She eats healthy but is not obsessed, she doesn’t work out either. But she isn’t a couch potato, she is a busy woman so maybe thats the secret.
Wow. She looks amazing as always. What is she now? 42, 43? Incredible. She looks good without being muttony and she always looks very well groomed – a must once you’re over 30 in my opinion. She has just the right amount of curve and slimness. Love the lips too.
she is sooo beautiful!
