Ashton experimented with a plant-based diet and found it worked for her (she still eats fish once or twice a week). "Amy [Robach] and I would always talk about fitness and nutrition,” she says. “I was a big proponent for keto eating and we've done numerous segments on the science behind it, but T.J. [Holmes] is to blame for getting me completely plant-based. I had always said no way would I do that! I have a lot of nut allergies and was scared that I would gain weight because of the carbs. T.J. had me watch documentaries and we conducted a little experiment. Now that I'm on it, my cholesterol has gone down and I've lost ten pounds."

2. Mixing Up Her Workouts

Ashton enjoys a variety of workouts. "I lift weights, run, swim, bike, and I also do a type of resistance stretching called the Bar Method," she says. “As for her favorite exercise class? "I like a combination. It's a tie between Soul Cycle and the Bar Method."

3. Fish For Lunch

Although Ashton avoids meat, she still incorporates fish into her diet. “I eat a lot of salmon actually,” she says. “I will have a plant-based protein smoothie as a snack or a shake made with spinach, blueberries, water and protein powder.”

4. She Is Open About Anxiety

Ashton has been frank about her experiences living with anxiety. "What I learned from my own experience with anxiety attacks is that I think a stigma occurs in a lot of society with people thinking that it's not real, or it's not serious or it's insignificant because we all know that there's no actual situation occurring," she says. "But none of that matters. The physical manifestations, the symptoms that I felt when I experienced these anxiety attacks, were absolutely real."

5. She Is Disciplined

Ashton makes a point of prioritizing workouts. “I schedule my workouts the same way I do work assignments or appointments with patients,” she says. “I try to do some form of cardio, strength training, meditation and stretching each day, even if that means waking up extra early.”

Anna Kendrick is feeling grateful, despite the state of the world right now. She shared a photo of herself in a bathing suit with other pals, someplace tropical. “Well. 2021. You were a little” jerk “in many ways,” she captioned it. “But pre-omicron you managed to bring a lot of cool” stuff. “So, thanks for giving me a taste of excitement and adventure before ripping it away again??? I’LL TAKE IT!” How does the superstar stay so fit while keeping so busy?

1. She Stays Present in Her Body

“The times in my life when I tried to restrict the foods I love always backfired, and I ended up feeling miserable. For me, it’s all about really being present in my body, not depriving it,” she told Shape.

2. She’s Tried to Add More Silliness in Her Life

"I'm trying to have a sense of play. A lot of my life over the last decade has been work, recover, work, recover. That doesn't leave much room for anything else. That's the mindset and the reality for a lot of people. You work and then recover so you can work some more. Putting some fun and silliness into my life is one of my goals,” she told Shape.

3. She Hikes

“The faster, farther and more frequently you walk, the greater the benefits. For example, you may start out as an average walker, and then work your way up to walking faster and walking a mile in a shorter amount of time than an average walker, similar to power walkers. This can be a great way to get aerobic activity, improve your heart health and increase your endurance while burning calories,” says the Mayo Clinic. “You can also alternate periods of brisk walking with leisurely walking. This type of interval training has many benefits, such as improving cardiovascular fitness and burning more calories than regular walking. And interval training can be done in less time than regular walking.”

4. She’s Tried Certain Wellness Techniques

"I've tried a couple of meditation classes, and so far I feel like I'm doing it wrong," she says. "My mind races more when I meditate. And I was vegan for a year, or maybe even two, and it was the best I've ever felt. Then I just fell off the wagon super hard. I was like, Well, maybe I can just do vegan most days. But no. It was the classic slippery-slope situation for Anna,” she told Shape.

5. She’s Part of a Changing Industry, and Worked Hard to Get Her Seat at the Table

Kendrick has worked hard to get a seat at the table. “There was a film I did many years ago and it was a mostly male cast... which doesn’t narrow it down very much at all,” she adds, with a wry laugh. “There were times when I was like, ‘Oh my God. I’m a joke to you.’ I think if those guys could see videos of themselves now, they would be totally horrified. They wouldn’t even recognise themselves, because the world is changing and people are becoming more self-aware,” she told the Independent.

She talked about how she came to this decision in this Instagram post. “I went plant-based almost 3 months ago for health reasons, after watching the documentary Game Changers,” she writes. “I was curious- if I could do it, how I would feel, would I gain or lose weight? Within one month, I realized this was in fact a game changer for ME! I lost 10 pounds, my LDL went from 111 to 81 and I am not hungry/ feel great and don’t miss dairy, eggs or meat at all. When i order from a restaurant, I do get fish, but this is usually only 1-2 times a week.”

When it comes to snacks I like nut and dates – of the food and men type!”

Ashley allows herself to cheat. “I love pizza, but I’m not sure how much of a guilty pleasure it is because I don’t feel guilty about having it,” she told Daily Star.

“I don’t watch calories and I don’t weigh myself – I tend to think if it tastes good eat it,” Ashley told Daily Star. “I know the more exercise I do the more I eat, but I know if I’ve had pigged out a bit I tend to feel a bit disgusting so I make sure I load up with veg. And if my jeans feel tight then I cut back.”

5. She Battled Body Dysmorphia

Ashley has been very open about her struggles with body dysmorphia. “When my body dysmorphia was at its worst I would look in the mirror and had no concept of how I really looked, but be convinced I looked fat,” she revealed to Daily Star. "If there was the slightest bit of midriff or legs on show I’d think I looked disgusting and worried what were people were going to think. Exercise as a routine has really helped. When I was at uni I let exercise slip, now it’s part of my routine. They key is not to make it a chore – do something you love and incorporate it into your life. I also relied on the advice of friends to tell me how I looked.”

6. She Refuses to “Punish” Her Body

In her latest social media post, Ashley encourages her followers to love themselves. “Well, it's that time of year again! Our Christmas dinner has barely digested and we're already being bombarded with weight loss ads trying to convince us to feel insecure. Plugging the lie to us that we will be happier, healthier and more confident if we punish our bodies...But just because it's a New Year, it doesn't mean we need a new body! Please don't fall for this annual toxic narrative and remember that whether it's the latest celebrity weight loss program or a product - they are making money from your insecurities,” she wrote. “Of course, we should and could all aspire to be healthier! But health doesn't always equal weight loss - especially if it's some unsustainable diet or fitness regime. I was my most unhealthy when I was the smallest version of myself. It also never brought me confidence or love or a high self esteem. It did make me obsess over my appearance. Made me more self critical. And convinced me if I could just change my appearance I'd be happier and more loveable. I wasn't. It was only when I learned to love and accept myself, and appreciate that my value and the things that brought me joy weren't tied to my appearance,” she continued. “You deserve to enjoy food with family and friends. Don't let people convince you that you need to change your appearance so they can profit off your insecurities.”

Read on to see 5 ways Larissa Trownson stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Swims

Trownson, as you can tell from her recent post, loves to spend time in the water. She likes to swim to keep herself in shape. Trownson shares a lot of other posts on Instagram of herself in the water. She shared these photos of herself in a pool in Turkey, captioning it, “If angels don’t exist, how do u explain me.” Trownson also posted this photo of herself swimming in Vanuatu’s Crystal Blue Lagoon. She captioned the post, “Could stop posting bikini pics but I’m not a quitter.”

2. She Knew When To Walk Away

Trownson opened up about her decision to leave Too Hot To Handle in an interview with MailOnline. “I kind of had a moment of reflection,” she says. “And with Nathan falling apart I kind of realised that I learned a lot about myself and what I want, what I’m feeling with someone and my emotions and what I need. So, I felt like I learned a lot and my journey had ended, there was nothing else I was going to learn at that point.”

3. She’s Honest

Trownson is open about having plastic surgery done. She explained why she is so honest about this in particular in an interview with Daily Mail Australia. “I think it's really important that we're transparent about work we've had done, otherwise that helps portray unreal beauty standards especially for younger women. So I've always been upfront about it and I chose to have it, so I'm proud of it.”

4. She Wants To Be An Inspiration

Trownson balances both life as a reality star and a lawyer. In an interview with Daily Mail, Trownson opened up about wanting to break stereotypes people might have of her and other women like her. “That's part of the reason why I went on Too Hot to Handle, I want to show people, I can look the way I do and have a successful job. Long term, I want to be able to break the stereotype that I can be a lawyer and look this way.”

5. She Takes Pole Dance Lessons

Trownson revealed in this Instagram post that she is taking pole dance lessons. LifeHack.org reports that this has a lot of health benefits. “Most people in the modern world could stand to lose about 10 pounds of fat, so any form of exercise is welcome. However, pole dancing taxes the muscles in the entire body and you are always moving – making it a great isometric and cardiovascular exercise wrapped into one. You can burn as many calories in a 30-minute session as you would doing aerobics and calisthenics, and this will lead to significant weight loss over several months.”
