"The reason why I lost so much weight as I did is because I used to live on junk food," she added in a Tumblr post (per E! Online). "So I drastically changed my eating habits, started exercising daily, and I'm all around a healthier me."

Ariana maintains a vegan lifestyle. She was inspired to ditch animal products after watching the documentary Forks Over Knives in 2013. "I love animals more than I love most people, not kidding," she told The Mirror. "But I am a firm believer in eating a full plant-based, whole-food diet that can expand your life length and make you an all-round happier person.”
3. Fruits and Veggies

Ariana eats a plant-centric diet. “It is tricky dining out, but I just stick to what I know–veggies, fruit, and salad–then, when I get home, I’ll have something else," she told The Mirror. One of her favorite ethnic foods? Japanese, per her trainer Harley Pasternak. "She loves daikon, lotus, adzuki beans—almost like a macrobiotic Japanese [diet]," he told Glamour in 2015.
4. Healthy Snacks

Ariana fuels up with healthy snacks. "I've had at least five strawberries a day since I can remember. They're my favorite food!" she revealed in one tweet. Almonds and cashews are another one of her go-to snacks. "They make great healthy snacks to keep me energized throughout my day!" she told Shape.
5. Hydration

Ariana drinks a lot of water and is obsessed with coconut water. “I always have a bottle next to me,” she told Shape. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
6. Step Goals
Pasternak gives the star “a step goal every day, whether she'll be dancing to get that step goal or watching her favorite movies while walking down the treadmill really slowly," he explained to Popsugar. "Twelve-thousand steps a day and she hits it. I can't imagine her being still."
7. Pilates
Ariana revealed in one of her Instagram Stories (via Eat This, Not That) that her Pilates reformer was her “Happy place,” tagging Los Angeles-based studio Forma Pilates. According to research, Pilates exercises are designed to increase muscle strength, endurance, and flexibility, and to improve posture and balance. Experts maintain that it is a great workout for leaning out.
