She Lost 30 Pounds
Emily has been very open with her weight struggles. In a November 2020 Instagram post she shared a before-and-after photo of herself after losing 30 pounds. "I never wanted to show these photos publicly because Im ashamed of where I let myself get, but here I am showing my transformation because I want to be transparent with you all. I worked my butt off to get here and Im so proud of how far Ive come and continue to go! I lost myself and my confidence through gaining 30 lbs. in one year in front of millions of people on a Reality TV Show. Here I am a year and a half later feeling sexy, confident in my own skin, and like the EMILY I am meant to be!" she wrote.
She Hired a Trainer
The first thing Emily did to lose the weight was hire a personal trainer, Paulina Taylor Hefferan, who she works out with at 6 a.m. three days per week. "Sometimes we become too overwhelmed with life, kids, depression, weight gain, hormones, relationships, illness etc … but you have to start somewhere. Make today that day. A year from now will pass by regardless. Might as well make it your healthiest yet," she captioned this Instagram post. "I have more work to do to get to my ultimate goal. "But I'm enjoying the journey and relishing in the successes."
She Doesn't Weigh Herself
While she did admit to losing a lot of weight, Emily has revealed that she tries not to pay attention to the number of the scale. "Not only have I lost significant body fat and several inches, but I've gained a new found acceptance of my body. I don't weigh myself very often because the number on the scale doesn't define me as a person nor is it wholly indicative of progress. I measure my progress and Heath by other methods of measurement such as endurance, strength, how many times I can walk up the Salt Creek Hill in one day and how I look in my clothes. I've changed physically but most importantly I've changed mentally. I've learned that weight loss doesn't have to be all in or nothing, you just have to do 1 thing better than the day before. The key to long term results is consistency and having someone in your corner cheering you on!" she revealed in this Instagram post.
She Drinks Water and Doesn't Eat Past 6
Emily revealed her "best trick to help with losing weight" during an Ask Me Anything thread on Instagram. "[Don't] eat past 6 pm and drink lots of water," she said. "Try it for a week. You'll see a difference!"
She Doesn't Count Calories
She also revealed in an Instagram Story (per Bravo) that there's another number she doesn't pay attention to. "I don't count calories…that's too much work for me. I just keep staples in my refrigerator at all times: ground turkey, spinach/lettuce, eggs, avocados, tomatoes, shredded carrots, black beans, corn tortillas, salsa [,] vegan cheese (I avoid dairy)…etc."
