Kelly is extremely disciplined with exercise, recently telling Yahoo’s In the Know that she never skips a day. “I work out seven days a week. And I try to workout an hour and a half a day, no matter what — whether I’m working or not,” Ripa shared with us. “If I’m working, maybe I’ll start it a little bit later or a little bit earlier, depending on what day of the week it is. But I am very religious about my fitness.”

2. Exercising Gives Her Energy

“I think that energy begets energy,” she told ITK. “There are people that say, ‘You must hate working out!’ It’s going to be so hard to push your way through [with that attitude], and I love working out. But it’s like developing a love for anything: You have to really practice it to love it. And, so, I found that years ago I really figured out that the more energy I put into the gym or left on the dance floor, the more energy came back to me.”

3. She Quit Drinking

In 2020 Kelly revealed that she and Mark had quit drinking, which contributes to their "healthy lifestyle,” she explained to Parade. "We did both quit drinking almost three years ago. Not that we were sitting around drinking day and night, but I think that there is something about like clean living—maybe that's what did it. Maybe that's the difference."

4. She Follows a High-Alkaline Diet

Kelly told People that she swears by a high-alkaline diet, and that the low-acid meal plan is “responsible for [her] not being in pain.” “I actually eat much more on this cleanse than I do in my actual life, but it’s what you eat and how you eat it,” she said.

As part of her healthy eating plan, she shies away from animal products. “I like to drink coffee. I occasionally will have fish. The alkaline diet is primarily a vegan diet, but I like cream in my coffee. I like to have a glass of wine. So I don’t adhere to it strictly, but when I do a cleanse, it will be seven days, and then I go back to my normal life. But my normal life, like I said, is not that different than the alkaline cleanse,” she told People.

6. This Is Her Morning Cocktail

Ripa revealed to Harper’s Bazaar that she starts her morning out with a unique cocktail, a glass of Get off Your Acid's Daily Greens mixed with water, a mug of coffee and ghee, paired with personalized Persona supplements she dubs her "foundational vitamin."

Kelly Ripa cheered for the Eagles on Super Bowl Sunday in her swimsuit. The talk show host used the big game as an opportunity to flaunt her fit figure, wearing a green wetsuit in honor of Philadelphia. “A pic from #superbowl sunday 2018 sporting my lucky Eagles wetsuit. Gonna wear it under my winter coat this year,” she captioned the Instagram photo. How does she stay so fit?

1. She Dances

Kelly has been working out with Anna Kaiser for many years, doing her dancing workout. “Danced my way through 2022,” she captioned a recent video of herself getting her sweat on. Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.

2. She Drinks Milk

Kelly drinks a glass of milk in the morning. “The nest might be empty, but my morning glass is full of MILK. A splash of coffee, a dry body brush and a detailed skincare routine help too. Kickstarting my day my way,” she captioned a post.

3. She First Started Using Botox in Her Armpits

Kelly told People in 2022 that she started using Botox in her armpits to combat excessive sweating before she using it elsewhere. “For me, it was just more of my comfort level,” she explained. “If I worked off camera, I would not wash my hair with regularity or wear makeup but when I started to see things that I didn't like, I thought, well, the next turtleneck is going to have two eye holes. I'm not saying you should let people bully you into cosmetic procedures. These are my choices for me.”

4. She Is Active Outdoors

When Kelly isn’t working out with her trainer you can find her blasting calories outdoors. She enjoys walking, swimming, and even rock climbing. In fact, she and husband Mark Consuelos spent a recent anniversary climbing rocks together. “Couple’s therapy,” she captioned one of the Instagram posts of their adventure.

5. She Is Sober

Kelly put down the bottle in 2017. "I did a sober month – all my girlfriends did it, we all did it together – I just never went back to it," she told People. "It felt great, I felt like I looked great, I felt like I didn't feel hungover."

Heidi Klum in a bathing suit is having a very happy weekend. She posted a selfie video of her and husband Tom Kaulitz enjoying a barbeque and chilling in chairs.

1. She Doesn’t Have a Specific Diet But Here is How She Eats

“I don't really have a specific diet. I just eat very healthily,” Klum told Entertainment Tonight. “I start with great smoothies in the morning. I also have four children, so we cook a lot. I don't really eat out a lot. I think when you eat out a lot or when you order foods in a lot, then it kind of gets a little tricky because you don't know what people are putting in there. So I cook a lot. I do three big meals, but really my last one is at 6:00 PM. I eat with my kids. I think that also helps a little bit. I think when you eat a little on the earlier side, it has time to digest and I think it is a little bit better for your body.”

2. Being in the Public Eye is Not Always Easy

“Being in the public eye is not always easy,” she told E! “Sometimes they look at you and they're like, ‘Oh my God, is she pregnant again? I see a little bump on her stomach then. Oh my God, she's too thin. Why she's getting so thin?’ I think a woman always struggles. We always struggle with our pounds. They go up and they go down. With me when I have five pounds on more or less, it really really shows. So sometimes I have to struggle keeping them on. Sometimes I have to struggle keeping them off. It depends on if there was just a holiday, now with Thanksgiving around the corner, the five pounds will go on again. So it always goes up and down.”

3. She Does a Bit of Cardio

“I don't really have that time to go and spend an hour at the gym,” she told E! ‘So I have to make due with walking the stairs instead of taking the elevator, jumping on the trampoline with my kids, being more involved in their activities. And then sometimes I hit my treadmill. So I make it into my attic. I have a treadmill in there and like sometimes even just 30 minutes or 40 minutes on that, I do a little bit of cardio.”

4. She is Always Active

As for losing baby weight, Klum feels “I'm partially lucky. Partially. I eat very healthy. I do watch what I eat, which is still a lot. People always think, oh, she probably doesn't eat anything. I do eat a lot, but I do watch what I eat. I try to stay away from the carbs … I'm very mobile … I'm very active. There's always something to do. If it's like cleaning up the closet and the kids are in school, or there's always something going through my house….”

5. She Says Women Should Embrace Their Shape

“I love designing swimsuits and it's a beach party or a pool party. So I thought that would be the perfect attire for today. I tried to make swimsuits for women, any shape or size. And I also believe that women should embrace their shape no matter what shape they're in. I think you should love yourself for who you are,” she told ET.
