Adriana Lima, the stunning Brazilian supermodel and Victoria's Secret Angel, not only has one of those insanely perfect faces; she's also incredibly fit, with a devotion to exercise and eating well that few of us can match. 

She's constantly posting images to her Instagram account of her hitting the gym and going for a run, even when she's traveling.

But now, we can get one step closer to becoming as fit as Lima (at least in our heads) by making the easy, three-ingredient smoothie she drinks every morning to kick-start her metabolism.

Lima explained to Vogue that the early morning smoothie helps boost her energy and gets her metabolism rolling.
