"It kind of looks like a costume but it’s cool to see my legs raw ….. People don’t know this but when I did Vegas, I was never allowed to go to the spa 🧖‍♀️ … they didn’t want me having coffee ☕️ or tea so my friends from home would show up going to the spas drinking champagne 🍾 no lie and I was the loser working and entertaining them at night … doesn’t sound like a good deal to me either !!!! So on this beautiful day here in Maui 🏖 I’m here to remind them all that being treated like an equal individual doesn’t require much … just RESPECT ✊ !!!! Psss are we going to war 🙄😜 ???"

Per science, a weekly "cheat meal" can also boost your metabolism and ward off feelings of deprivation—helping you lose weight and stick to your diet plan as well. A 2017 study published in the International Journal of Obesity found that dieters who took two-weeks off their low-calorie meal plan were more successful in terms of weight loss than those who dieted consistently.

4. She Wants to Be Strong

One of Spears’ favorite ways to exercise is by practicing yoga. She even has an Instagram story highlight entitled “Yoga”, which features videos of herself doing different poses. In the first post in the highlight, Spears wrote, “Yoga every darn day!” “The goal of calming and relaxation exercises is to help change the way you perceive a situation and react to it — to help you feel more in control, more confident or secure, and to activate healing processes within the body. Give yoga a try!” says the Cleveland Clinic.

5. She Strength Trains

Spears is a fan of lifting weights and doing strength training exercises. She posted this video on Instagram of herself doing several different weight training exercises including, lifting hand weights, lifting barbells, and doing kettlebell squats. “Muscle burns more calories at rest than fat explains strength and athletic trainer Tom Iannetta, ATC, CSCS. Lots more! Ten pounds of muscle burns 50 calories at rest, whereas 10 pounds of fat burns 20 calories. This means, long after you’ve stopped working out — even while lounging by the pool or sleeping — your body is still burning over twice as many calories when you’re toned than when you’re not,” says the Cleveland Clinic.

Britney Spears and her fiancé, Sam Asghari, just went on vacation to celebrate Asghari’s birthday, and they're inviting you to come along (virtually). Spears has been posting several photos and videos on Instagram of their vacation as a keepsake.

Spears recently shared a post about declaring your intentions, and focusing on your goals. She captioned the post, “My word of the week is intention … it has a lot of different meanings … what do you intend to do today ??? What is your intention by doing so … and also it’s known to heal … with that said my intention by what I’m reading now by even sending this message about this beautiful word is one thing and one thing only … to help spread the word !!!! My intention is to merely exist in hopes that others see me write … dance … cry … laugh … sing … or just speak !!!! They know I exist to be a good person …. period !!!!”

2. She Hydrates

In the swimsuit share, Spears is seen guzzling a bottle of water. “Every day you lose water through your breath, perspiration, urine and bowel movements. For your body to function properly, you must replenish its water supply by consuming beverages and foods that contain water,” reports the Mayo Clinic. “So how much fluid does the average, healthy adult living in a temperate climate need? The U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine determined that an adequate daily fluid intake is:

• About 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day for men
• About 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids a day for women.
• These recommendations cover fluids from water, other beverages and food. About 20% of daily fluid intake usually comes from food and the rest from drinks.”

3. She Dances

Spears frequently posts videos of her dancing at home. It’s a great aerobic workout. “Aerobic exercise can reduce health risks, help maintain a healthy weight, strengthen your heart and boost your mood. If you enjoy” dancing “you're also more likely to do it regularly and experience its benefits as an aerobic exercise,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Has a Positive Attitude

“Be happy and smile,” Spears posted recently. This kind of happy messaging can actually make you happy. “Positive thinking doesn't mean that you keep your head in the sand and ignore life's less pleasant situations. Positive thinking just means that you approach unpleasantness in a more positive and productive way. You think the best is going to happen, not the worst,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Positive thinking often starts with self-talk. Self-talk is the endless stream of unspoken thoughts that run through your head. These automatic thoughts can be positive or negative. Some of your self-talk comes from logic and reason. Other self-talk may arise from misconceptions that you create because of lack of information.”

5. She Has Done Yoga in the Past

“People who practice yoga and are mindful eaters are more in tune with their bodies. They may be more sensitive to hunger cues and feelings of fullness,” says Harvard Health. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood. People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”
