Maria Menounos is a multi-talented TV host, best known for founding AfterBuzz TV, and she is also a fitness expert. With a passion for wellness, she recently took to Instagram to share one of her daily non-negotiable health habits: watching the sunrise. In her post, Menounos highlighted how this practice has a profound impact on her mental and physical well-being. “Sunrise is the most magical time of the day! It’s my non-negotiable for my health, mental and physical,” she wrote. Menounos is always focused on living a balanced life, whether it's through her skincare routine or incorporating movement into her day. Here’s a deeper look into how she maintains her well-being and stays in great shape.

1. She Walks

Menounous likes to walk to keep herself in shape. She tells New Beauty, “I love going for a walk with my dogs. To me just being out in nature really helps me reconnect and get regrounded. Motion equals emotion, so, whenever you’re not feeling well just get out and start moving. It makes you feel better instantly.”

2. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Menounous shared her skincare secrets with New Beauty. “Skin-care wise I have to say I really love Dr. Jason Diamond’s Metacine skin-care line. I got an early stash from him and my skin’s been glowing. And I’ve gone through so much hell in the early part of the year, so I was like, ‘Do I look like it?’ I don’t. I really love his new products. I also just switched over my foundation. I’ve been trying to clean up my beauty products, which I’ve been doing for the last few years. I just tried NARS’ new Radiant Foundation ($50). I also use a little of the Kosas Glow I.V. Vitamin-Infused Skin Enhancer ($38) and it gives a really nice glow. I’m really loving the Thrive Causemetics Liquid Lash ($25) tubing mascara. And Beauty Bio, I’m really obsessed with their products, like the GloFacial ($199) pore cleanser. I also love their roller. It’s all so good.”

3. She Loves Smoothies

Menounous shared some of her favorite foods in an interview with Health. She says that she likes to make smoothies for breakfast, and shared her favorite recipe. "Most mornings I start with a smoothie," she says. "My favorite has Greek yogurt, almonds, apple, banana, cinnamon, and a little bit of skim milk. It’s [celebrity trainer] Harley Pasternak’s recipe; I’ve been doing it for years. Nine times out of 10 that's what I'm having."

4. She Has A Balanced Diet

Menounous makes sure to eat a healthy diet. However, she tells Health that she doesn’t believe in depriving herself and does believe in balance. “I really do try to aim for a 75-25 rule for eating (but for me it’s really 80% clean). If I ate clean all day and I’m watching a movie later that night, I’ll have a few Kit Kat Bites or some popcorn, and I’m not going to feel bad about it. I can play a little bit.’

5. She Moves Constantly

Menounos has an active life. She talked about this her interview with Health. “Move with a purpose,” she said. “Even if you’re just going from your office to the bathroom, power walk there. Get a [fitness tracker] and make sure that you’re reaching your steps-a-day goal, and that you’re always going. Take the harder way as much as possible. We’re so conditioned to take the easy way, the convenient way. I never do that; I’m always moving.”

Maria Menounos, the media personality and TV host, is known for her toned, slender figure. She is looking forward to the summer weather, and her most recent Instagram post proves it. In the post, Menounos lounged on a pool float in the water. She wore a white bathing suit, her abs and legs on display. She captioned the post, “It’s warmin’ up!!!” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Maria Menounos 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 Created Her Own Plan

In an interview with Ladies Home Journal, Menounos revealed that she went through a period where she gained a lot of weight. She says that she tried a lot of established plans to drop the pounds, but nothing work. Menounos decided to look elsewhere. "Since I couldn't find a plan that worked for me, I decided to create my own," she says. "Within a year I lost 40 pounds."

2. She Doesn’t Aim To Be Thin

Menounos says that her main goal is to feel healthy, not to be skinny. She tells Ladies Home Journal that when she was skinny, she wasn’t always healthy, and ended up in and out of the hospital. This is what made her focus on how she felt, not what she weighed. “Just because you're thinner doesn't mean you're healthier. I made it my mission to figure out the very best ways to control my weight and be healthy at the same time."

3. She Focuses On Long Term Success

For Menounos, being healthy took a while. She tells Ladies Home Journal that her focus was correcting unhealthy habits she had, not going on a diet for a couple of weeks. “My goal was to stop overeating, make healthier choices, and lose weight slowly over the course of one year," she says. "Trying to rush or do crazy crash diets does not give you sustainable results."

4. She Has A Food Journal

One thing Menounos does to stay healthy is keeping a food journal. She says that this helps her see what she’s eating, and how it affects her body and weight. "Before you change your diet, spend a week recording everything that you eat—and when you ate it—in a weight-loss journal," she advises in Ladies Home Journal. "Now that you know what you're eating.”

5. She Does Little Workouts Throughout The Day

Menounos tells TooFab that she lives an active life. One way she is able to do this is by finding small ways to be active each day. “I find creative ways to squeeze in exercises during my daily living routine and I stay as active as I possibly can. I walk instead of drive. I opt for stairs instead of escalators. I also have an inexpensive pedometer that measures my daily steps. I strive to do 10,000 a day and whether I accomplish that or not, it's a reminder to try.”

Maria Menounos, Noovie host and Better Together podcaster, is loving summer outdoors in her backyard, in a bathing suit, with new furniture. “Backyard transformation is here! BEFORE and AFTER 💥 My backyard reno reveal is here! Been working on this for sooooo long and it finally all came together. If you know anything about us Greeks-we don’t pay for anything we can do…so my dad was adamant he would build the beautiful decks in our ct backyard -he crushed it! Picked my dream furniture from @frontgate and voila…hard launch today. Will be dropping them all day. Starting with the chaises because they are my favorite!! No arms, super easy to move around and use..the double chaise even has a little tray that pulls out for your drinks! Got these cute little trees for decor and the pool chairs are THE BEST pool chairs I’ve found. Definitely and investment but they last forever and are perfect,” she said. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Maria Menounos 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 Gets Up

“If you’re a complete newbie when it comes to fitness, or if you have been away from exercise for a while and want to start again, there are a few things that you can do to get you moving in no time. The best way to get going is to get up! Move around the office, stretch, take a walk around the block, or go for a run at lunch time. If you’re interested in getting some exercise before bedtime too, there are plenty of ways to do so,” Maria wrote.

2. She Walks

“Walking is a great way to get moving. It’s easy, it doesn’t require any special equipment or a gym membership, and you can do it anywhere. Walking is also effective because it gets your body moving without requiring much effort on your part—you can take as many breaks as you need without feeling guilty about skipping out on exercise altogether,” wrote Maria. “You may have heard that walking boosts brain power and helps with memory retention, but that’s not all! Walking can help reduce stress levels, improve sleep quality, lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels—all things that are good for your overall health and well-being (and happiness!).”

3. She Visits the Doctor

“Pro-tip: try to schedule all of your appointments in the same month,” Maria wrote on an Instagram post. She knows what she’s talking about, as she once had brain tumor symptoms discovered by her doctor. “Get your dentist, gynecologist, skin check and any doctor’s appointments all done at once – this way you can always remember. October for example is when I handle the health biz. I try to set back-to-back appointments and knock out as many as I can at once. Try your best to have a rhythm so you never forget! It’s helped me! Good luck.”

4. Here’s Her Take on Success

“I realized what matters in life are the people that you positively affect and touch — the things that you do that are not about accolades, awards, or success. Success isn’t a closet of Chanel bags. It all doesn’t matter if you’re going to go, what matters is living while you can. Every time you can dance, someone else can’t. You have to remember that,” she has said, according to Girlboss.

5. Get a Hobby

“I never had hobbies and I never thought I had the time. Now I’ve gone the opposite way — it takes like six hours a week. Do we not have a couple of hours a week to devote to ourselves to be better and happier emotionally and spiritually? I took up guitar and I’ll go into a guitar session having had a very stressful family conversation and leave feeling so uplifted and happy. Whatever that is going to make you feel good — is it dance class? Is it SoulCycle or playing with puppies at the shelter? You need to figure out things that aren’t expensive and figure out how to access your happiness during stressful moments without cost,” she told Girlboss.

Of the many adjectives you could use to describe Rita Ora—great voice, sunny vibe, intriguing attitude, social media savant—”shy” would not be one of them.

1. This is Her Morning Wellness Routine

“I won’t lie: I’m a fan of the snooze button, so I like to do a little extra sleeping whenever I can. After I wake up, I do some light stretching just to get myself going and then I like to do affirmations. I think it’s really important to start the day off with positive energy. I usually do all that before my morning skincare, and then it’s off to breakfast! I would say the most important part of my wellness routine is not going straight to my phone in the morning. I like to take my time and really get myself centered before I go into work mode. After breakfast, I shower and then head to the gym for cardio and weights,” she told W.

2. She Says This About Her Glowing Skin

“I have combination skin, and unfortunately am prone to breaking out if I do a lot of appearances in a row or if I’m on tour. It’s super important for me to use products that are soothing. La Mer has an incredible skincare line that really helps keep my skin looking fresh. I’m also a big fan of using a light therapy face mask, which helps to kill bacteria and calms inflammation,” she told W.

3. Clothes Make Her Feel Good

"For me, every day I wake up feeling like, 'OK, what do I want to conquer today?' and that helps me get dressed," Ora told TZR. "I always wear a tight pair of pants to make myself feel really sexy and feminine. Ones I recently discovered and I can't take off are the [Maison] Margiela shiny pants. They're high-waisted and they make your legs look super long."

4. This is How She Self-Loves

“My mum is a big manifester. She’s always like, ‘Put it into the universe and it will come back to you.' So I always write affirmations. I stick them on little Post-Its around my room. I also bought this facial steamer on Amazon. Don’t know if it works, but it feels really good. And I give myself little facials and hair masks and do things that make me feel better,” she told TZR.

5. She Has Raved About This Supplement

Ora “ takes the vitamin C supplement Altrient C- Liposomal Vitamin C. Ora said, “they don’t taste good, but I take these every day. It’s a vitamin C supplement that I’m super strict with because vitamins really help keep me together. Especially with everything going on right now, I just really want to take things to protect my immune system,” according to Cheat Sheet.

Sofia Vergara seems to have it all—including a good time. The Modern Family star posted a photo of herself today in a pink bikini: “Ready pal weeekend!! #outdoorsonly,” she wrote in her caption, that last part accompanied by a mask emoji (meaning she’s mask free outside only) and three bikini emojis. So how does the icon stay so fit while also living her best life?

1. She Eats for Beauty

"I eat a lot of vegetables, and I eat blueberries, and I drink green tea," she told Health. "I add a spoon of powdered collagen to chamomile tea at night—I don’t know what that does but I do it! And I try to drink lots of water." She considers all that hydration part of her “beauty routine.” Speaking of which, she told Health: "I take my makeup off every night with a sponge—like a little soft, nonabrasive sea sponge that I change once a week—and then I use a mild soap."

2. She Works Out on This Schedule

Celebrity Sightings In Los Angeles - April 16, 2021Sam Payne/Broadimage /MEGA/GC Images

"Typically, if we have a good filming schedule where she has availability, we'll work out between 5-7 days, which is a lot. But she takes a lot of time off when she's busy," Vergara's trainer Jennifer Yates told Marie Claire. "It's fine to give yourself a break—your body comes back stronger. You have to let your body rest, even if you're working out a few days during the week. That's why we rotate with Sofia. We have days in between when she rests. If you exhaust the muscles, you're more prone to getting injured."

3. You Can Do a Bodyweight Version of Her Workout

"All you need is your own body weight," Yates told Marie Claire. "Crunches are great. During red carpet season we do a lot of upper body and abs—planks are also great. Even if you have a weighted object; you can hold it in one hand, crunch to one side, and pull back up to hit your oblique muscles. You can also get a cheap resistance band for five dollars or less, and wrap it around a secure pole or door knob. If you stand facing that object and do a torso twist, you'll hit your obliques as well. The key is making sure you have the correct form. Holding planks are one of the best full body exercises you can do."

4. She Uses Sunscreen

"In my 20s, I started to use sunblock on my face," she told People in 2016. "I wish I had put it on my chest too." Her brand of choice at that time? La-Roche Posay, which she told Health "is great for sensitive skin. It’s my go-to." She’s also into hates to protect herself. "I have a little house in the Bahamas and I have a fucking crazy collection of hats so everyone can have one," she said. "There must be 25 hats in the bucket, and I always go for the same one: a visor. An old lady visor."

5. She Empowers Other Women to Look and Do Their Best

Vergara launched a successful underwear brand. “EBY means empowered by you,” Vergara told SELF in an interview. “The whole thing that we wanted to do was women empowering women. Women buy the underwear and a percentage of that money is given to these women through microfinance [loans].” I’ve had the luxury of being able to grow my ideas into successful business ventures over the past 10 years,” Vergara writes in a statement. “I want to provide women with the tools to start their own business as an exit out of poverty.”

Kriti Sanon knows that staying fit doesn’t have to feel like a chore. The Bollywood star recently shared a video on Instagram rocking two-piece workout gear, proving that her fitness philosophy is all about keeping things fun and challenging. From TRX routines to hip thrusts, Sanon mixes up her workouts to stay motivated and strong. “It’s gotta be fun,” she says—and judging by her energy in the gym, she’s clearly found the perfect balance. Here’s how Sanon keeps herself in top shape with a variety of exercises that work both body and mind.

She Does TRX

Sanon does a lot of things to keep herself in shape. She is seen using TRX cables in her Instagram video. NIFS states that these exercises have a lot of benefits. “If you have ever taken a class or done some of even the most basic exercises, you quickly see that core activation is one of the most important aspects. The workouts are simple yet very challenging, and you can easily complete a total-body workout only using one piece of equipment in 20 minutes.”

Strength Training

Sanon is seen doing a lot of strength training exercises in her Instagram video. Strength training has a lot of health benefits. The Mayo Clinic states, “By stressing your bones, strength training can increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

Sanon is seen doing hip thrusts with a shoulder press in her Instagram video. Hip thrusts have a lot of benefits. Gymless says, “Hip thrusts are a controlled and powerful movement, mainly focusing on the glutes, hamstrings, lower back, and core. This exercise is vital for developing a stronger posterior chain, contributing to improved athletic performance, alleviating lower back pain, and enhancing overall physique. Considering that about 65 million Americans experience some form of back pain, hip thrusts are a great exercise to include in your routine.”

She Does Russian Twists

Another exercise that Sanon is seen doing in her Instagram video is Russian twists with a weight. Gymless says that this exercise is very beneficial. “Russian Twists are a great exercise that develops all parts of your core, especially the obliques, it also targets the shoulders and hips. This exercise involves rotating your torso from side-to-side while maintaining a sit up position with your feet off the ground. This rotational movement often occurs in sports, which makes it a popular exercise amongst athletes. It is speculated that this was developed during the Cold War by the former Soviet Union as a training exercise for the Russian Soldiers.”

She Uses A Stationary Bike

Sanon also shared this workout video on Instagram. In it, she is seen using a stationary bike. Penn State PRO Wellness reports that stationary bike workouts have a lot of health benefits. “Riding a stationary bike can help build strength in your legs and lower body, especially if you use a higher resistance. The pedaling action can help strengthen your calves, hamstrings, and quadriceps. Additionally, it can work the muscles in your core, back, and glutes.”

Alice De Bortoli doesn’t just light up Instagram with her stunning fashion and effortless style—she also shares the secrets behind her enviable beach-ready physique. The Italian influencer keeps her followers in the loop when it comes to fitness, beauty, and wellness, proving that looking and feeling great is all about consistency. From skincare rituals to core-sculpting workouts, De Bortoli’s daily habits make it clear that staying in shape is about more than just hitting the gym. Whether she’s cooking up homemade meals, breaking a sweat, or showing off a fresh new look, she’s all about feeling her best from the inside out. Here are five of her go-to habits for maintaining a strong, confident, and glowing presence all year long.

She Takes Care Of Her Skin

De Bortoli has impressive skin. Naturally, she takes care of it on a regular basis. De Bortoli shared this video on Instagram sharing her skincare routine. She captioned it, “The secret to perfect skin? Here is my step by step routine! ✨💦🎀 What product can you absolutely not live without?”

She Changed Her Hair Color

De Bortoli recently changed her hair color. She explained why in the caption of this Instagram post. “The good thing about this color is that it does not require frequent touch-ups and it easily adapts to natural hair growth, it is versatile and can enhance any body and face shape 🧡for those who are tired of blonde or brown, bronde is the solution to change harmony without distortion 🤍for those who have a fair complexion, the most golden tone is recommended 🤎 for the dark complexion, on the other hand, more ash brown ❤️ 🔥what can I say... For me the bronde conquered, and what do you think?”

She Cooks

De Bortoli likes to cook, and she was taught to do so by her grandmother. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her grandmother cooking together. De Bortoli captioned it, “Grandparents are wealth in society, my grandmother loves to cook and do it with her since I was a child. She has always inspired my creativity, patience, discipline and order but above all traditions, history, and the concreteness of nature's gifts. The greatest teaching my grandparents passed on to me is respect for people, the environment, animals and the kitchen... Today together we made Carnival Frittelle, an easy, quick dessert that adults and kids love. The ingredients are few and simple (but of high quality) and, trust me, the result is guaranteed: nice round but above all soft and tasty.”

She Works Her Abs

De Bortoli shared this video of herself working out on Instagram. In it, she is seen doing core exercises like sit-ups. Core exercises are extremely important. The Mayo Clinic says, “Strong core muscles make it easier to do many activities. When your core muscles are strong, it's easier to swing a golf club, get a glass from the top shelf and bend down to tie your shoes. Strong core muscles help athletes, such as runners. That's because weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.”

She Works Out With Others

In the previous Instagram video, De Bortoli is seen working out with a friend. Better Health says that this has a lot of benefits. “You’re less likely to get bored when you have a workout buddy, especially a friend. While you’re catching up, having a laugh, encouraging each other, you’re also getting healthier. It’s a win-win. Chatting to a friend during exercise and breaks can help time pass quickly too. You’ll have more options as well, such as a game of tennis or squash.”

She's Less Strict With Her Diet

Cavallari has written several cookbooks, and they have changed as her diet has changed. While promoting her book, Truly Simple with EatingWell, she revealed that her diet is less strict. “I've gotten to a point in my life where not everything has to be so perfect anymore,” Cavallari said. “I used to be so strict about what I was putting in my body. I'm still very healthy and very conscious of it, but I've gotten a little bit more lax. True Roots and True Comfort had nothing ‘white’ in them: no white flour, no white sugar, no white salt. But in Truly Simple, I bend a little bit in a few of the recipes, which really reflects where I am in my life and my new way of eating. Everything is a little bit more relaxed around here now.’

She Loves Cauliflower

Cavallari tells EatingWell that she loves making foods with cauliflower. “I love cauliflower because I think it's very versatile, and there's actually a Sweet Harissa Cauliflower recipe in Truly Simple that's my absolute favorite cauliflower recipe on the planet. If you've ever been to True Food Kitchen, their cauliflower was the inspiration behind it. There's this sweet harissa dressing that's on it, and there's little chopped-up dates in it, so it has that nice balance between sweet and savory. It's the absolute best.”

She Loves Salad

Cavallari likes to make salads. She shared one of her favorite recipes with EatingWell. “This salad has a few of my favorite things: salmon (which has omega-3s and is so, so good for you), bacon (no explanation needed), avocado (healthy fats), and spicy tomatillo ranch dressing (just yum). Together, they create culinary heaven. If you aren't familiar with tomatillos, they're similar to tomatoes but are slightly less sweet and are perfect when drenched in ranch.”

She Works With A Trainer

Cavallari tells Us Weekly that a lot of her gym sessions are with her personal trainer. “He kicks my ass,” she says. “He pushes me really hard. He has me actually lifting really heavy weight, the heaviest weight I’ve ever lifted in my entire life. I feel the best I ever have. I feel like I’m the strongest I’ve ever been.”

She Shared Her Eye Makeup Trick

Cavallari shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Us Weekly. She says that consistency is one of her biggest priorities. “My goal is sort of, right now, just to maintain the muscle that I have,” she says. “I’m really petite. I have no hips. I’m just small. And so if I don’t work out for like a week or two, I feel like all my muscle goes away. So it is about consistency for me.”
