1. She Sucks Down Smoothies

Christina is a big fan of smoothies, generally having multiple a day as part of a meal or snacks. "I meal prep my smoothies; I cut up all the ingredients except milk and put in plastic baggies in the freezer or fridge and just throw them and milk in the blender when I'm ready. So it literally takes 5 minutes and I have a full meal,” Christina said.

2. She Allows Herself a Chance to Slow Down

She noticed her workouts were getting a little too intense for her overall well-being. “You don’t need to work out for hours at a time every day to see great results; your body knows best when it comes to choosing what type of exercise to do; and exercise isn’t just about physical transformation.” She takes some of the intensity away by walking or doing some low impact workouts like yoga. “Since I started scaling back, I have felt way better. I still get the benefits of exercise — mental and physical — and even though I’m working out way less often and with less intensity, I still wear the same size clothes," says Christina.

3. She Practices Intuitive Eating

It’s easy to get on such a schedule with eating that you don’t even know how to listen to your body anymore. When you’re hungry, eat. When you’re indulging, be mindful and taste your food…slow down and appreciate the flavors. Christina pays attention to when her body is hungry and when she’s full, also keeping healthy foods on standby prepped in her fridge like chopped veggies and meals. Mindful eating is an incredible skill to practice and further develop overtime.

4. She Includes Healthy Fats In Her Diet

Christina prioritizes including healthy fats into her meals. The heart healthy fats help to create a balanced diet and are often great sources of fiber and protein, like you find in avocados. Some of the food she includes are lean meats, dairy, avocados, seeds, nuts, and healthy plant oils.

5. She Looks For Support In Her Workouts

During an interview with Country Living, Christina said that in addition to spending time outdoors and running, she began taking Orangetheory Fitness classes, too. Orangetheory focuses on blending cardio workouts with strength training in small class sizes while dialing in on your heart rate. "It's an awesome workout, super hard and intense, and I noticed a huge change in my body from that," Christina said.

Chelsea Handler, the comedian, is used to making others laugh and keeping smiles on their faces, but she also really focuses on getting her mind in the right headspace, too.

Like so many others, she recognizes that she needs therapy to get herself in a good healthy mindset, working on her overall happiness. “Like anybody, I struggle with insecurities and self-doubt,” Chelsea said. “A lot of people tell me that I’m fearless. I don’t feel fearless.” She’s found therapy extremely helpful for her overall health. Afterall, it starts with the mind.

2. She Cut Way Back On Drinking

Drinking can be fun, but it never really leads to anything better for your health. Chelsea admitted that she used to consume alcohol often. “I thought I could handle my alcohol, but I didn’t realize how much your body and your life changes when it’s not in your life every day,” she said. Although she hasn’t given it up, she admits that it is nice to wake up with a clear mind and no bloat.

3. She Works Out Daily

Chelsea prioritizes working out almost everyday. Again, she’s only human and everybody needs a day off once in a while, but generally, she enjoys it. Chelsea told Health she aims to exercise “I just like to feel strong, and now it’s part of my mental strength.” According to the Mayo Clinic, exercise is so important for overall health, energy, and stress management.

4. She’s Working Hard On Her Relationship With Food

Chelsea admits that her relationship with food has not always been a strong one, having experimented with eating disorders in previous years. “I’ve had a terrible relationship with food,” she said. “I was all out of sorts when I moved to Los Angeles. I’ve basically experimented with every eating disorder there is.” She even admits to taking water pills that drain fluids to make her look thinner. “It’s tough being a woman,” she said. “I try to set a good example, but sometimes I’m not being a good example.” After a lot of hard work, Handler says she’s the healthiest she’s ever been.

5. She Relaxes and Clears Her Mind

Chelsea prioritizes getting her head in the right space and has been a strong advocate for marijuana use and meditation. “Weed has had such a positive impact on me,” she said, adding that she “microdoses” with a THC gummy before bedtime and prior to workouts. She also meditates daily, and admits that it kind of annoyed her in the beginning. “I tried with my psychiatrist several times. He made me short recordings and long recordings, and then I’d meditate,” she said. She wasn’t sold at first, but over time it grew on her.

The Pitch Perfect star, who first declared she was on a mission to become the healthiest version of herself possible in early 2020, initially dropped 60 pounds in less than a year.

How exactly did the actress shed all that weight?

1. She Focused On Getting Healthier, Not Losing Weight

Rebel kept her focus on health, not the number on the scale. “To me what the year of health was, was just being a healthier version,” she recently explained to Jamila Rizvi on The Weekend Briefing per Yahoo Australia. She also noted that she was motivated by improving her fertility and also curbing emotional eating. “It wasn't about losing a set amount of weight, although I did put a goal originally of 75 kilos so I could have something tangible to work towards. But it's not about a number or a dress size, or anything like that.'It was just about being the healthiest version of me and I dedicated all of 2020 to doing that, and I'm proud of myself,” she said.

2. She Kept Herself Accountable

While she admits she did “annoy some people” by regularly posting about her health journey on social media, Rebel claims it helped keep her accountable. “I feel really good within myself and I like to celebrate the journey,” she explained. “And also, why I did it publicly was for accountability as well, because it’s all good and well just having a little experiment and if you don’t tell people about it you could just easily fail, whereas if I tell the whole world on social media, then that's pretty good motivation.”

3. She Understands That Self-Confidence Shouldn’t Come with a Clothing Size

While Rebel is proud of her journey, she told The Weekend Briefing that it hasn’t impacted her self-esteem. “I think people are beautiful in all different sizes, and I would feel just as confident rocking my size 16 dress as I do now. I’m about a size 8 now,” she said. “I loved being bigger and it never stopped me from achieving anything in my life.”

4. Sleep and Hydration Are Key

During her Q&A, Rebel revealed a few of her health secrets. "Adequate sleep, walking, hydrating, [and] drinking water," she said. "You'll always see me with a FIJI [water] in my hand, and balance it with the nutrition," she said.

5. She Approaches Health From the Inside Out

Rebel understands that health has as much to do with the mind as it does the body. “I think because I approached it from all areas ... the biggest thing that I haven't ever worked on was the emotional side, what I suffered from, I guess, as classical emotional eating … so I really worked on that side," she told Extra about her weight loss.

6. She Found a Diet Plan That Worked For Her

Rebel relied on the Mayr Method as a blueprint for her weight loss. The star has stayed at their clinic, VivaMayr, a few times, detoxing via spa treatments, mental health sessions, and undergoing diet and fitness revamps. One of the major changes she has made? Reducing gluten and dairy, eating high alkaline foods like veggies and fish and altering her dietary approach—including when and how she eats.

7. She Prioritizes Fitness

Rebel knows that exercise is a fundamental component of overall health. "This week was super busy but I got up super early 3 times (6am 😜) and went on a hike...even did a couple of 100m sprints to get the heart rate even higher (although my 'sprint' is probably someone else's 'slow jog' 😝) but I felt proud of myself and now only 3kg's away from my goal weight!" she wrote on Instagram.

For a little dessert, I love Justin’s Organic Mini Peanut Butter Cups — delish!”

“I haven’t really been able to work out the past four months,” Sarah told PEOPLE. “It’s just been putting me in a more anxiety ridden place. You have all of these plans and something happens where you’re not able to do it.” That said, she slowly works on things like resistance training, not pushing her body too hard, but doing what she can to the fullest.
