Read on to see 5 ways Gara 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 Loves Pancakes For Breakfast

Gara starts the day with delicious fruit, pancakes, and oatmeal, which experts say is a great choice for a healthy breakfast. “The soluble fiber in oats has been shown to decrease low-density lipoprotein, or ‘bad’ cholesterol, by 10%–15%, particularly when consumed as part of a low-fat diet,” says Megan Holdaway, RDN. “Studies show fiber can also decrease risk of high blood pressure and reduce risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease. A high-fiber diet has also been shown to reduce the risk of colon cancer. The American Heart Association recommends that adults eat 25–30 grams of fiber per day. Most Americans only eat about half that amount.”

2. She Never Diets

Gara’s lithe physique is the result of martial arts training—and plenty of food. “I eat more than people can imagine,” Gara says. “I’ve been blessed with good genetics consisting of a fast metabolism. People also do forget I have consistently trained in martial arts my whole life!”

3. She Swims In the Ocean

Gara is an accomplished swimmer, and loves the ocean—something that offers many health benefits, experts say. “In his 2014 book Blue Mind, marine biologist Wallace J. Nichols brought together evidence for why people find themselves in a meditative and relaxed state when they are in, on or under water,” says Sergio Diez Alvarez, director of medicine, The Maitland and Kurri Kurri Hospital, University of Newcastle. “One reason is the breathing patterns used during swimming and diving. These stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (the system that controls organ function and quietens the brain) and have effects on brain waves and hormones that influence the brain positively. The weightlessness of water can also have a calming effect on the mind, even changing or slowing down brain waves.”

4. She Protects Her Mental Health

Being in the public eye can take its toll—but Gara is careful to protect her mental health. “You can take care of your mental health simply by not caring and not letting anyone get to you,” she says. “When you stop caring what other people think about you, you’ll begin to shine and no one will seek to bring you down… I used to struggle with my confidence after haters would try to bring me down, but then I realized my worth and that it reflects who they are as a person. Knowing your worth is also important, as well as accepting your uniqueness and insecurities and telling yourself you are beautiful just the way you are.”

5. She Knows What’s Important In Life

Gara is realistic and grounded about her job as an influencer, saying “real life” is what really matters. “Social media validation is nowhere near as important as real life validation,” Gara says. “It is important in regards to keeping consistent growth and income, but being a good person and real to everyone around me is all that matters in terms of validation.”

Frazer opened up about life after her divorce in an interview with Yahoo Lifestyle. She says that she is now living life on her own terms. “Now I’m on OnlyFans, I’m single, I’m on the cover of Maxim - it’s the complete opposite. I think it’s the path that I was meant to be on and I’m where I’m meant to be. Every day I wake up and I'm just so happy with my life.”

2. She’s Taking Care Of Her Mental Health

Frazer tells Yahoo Lifestyle that she has started taking care of her mental health. “I still feel like there's a little bit of fine-tuning to do with my mental health, but it's the best it's been since I want to say even before MAFS started filming,” she remarks. “I'm just excited to wake up every day, which I haven’t felt for two years. Obviously the filming process was hard and then what we went through during filming was awful. And then Jackson and I, it was the wrong relationship. So being in a relationship that's not working as well as all this other stuff just really took a toll. So I think getting out of all of it, I made a very conscious choice a few months ago to just stop talking about all the drama and all the bad stuff... Unless I’m asked a direct question, I just don’t interact with it or take the bait or anything like that, and it's just serving me really well.”

3. She Got Surgery

Frazer notably lost a lot of weight in recent years. She revealed on Instagram that she decided to get weight-loss surgery as a way to do so. “Surgery [is] the last thing anybody ever wants to do. It is the last resort. It’s not fun not being able to eat like everybody else, it’s not fun to not be able to drink like everybody else.”

4. She Defends Herself

Frazer has had to defend herself due to being seen as a reality TV villain. She recently clapped back when a photo of her was taken without her consent. “I was spotted applying for a casual job at a makeup store. Absolutely disgusting because a photo was taken of me in my job interview that I did not know was being taken. It’s a huge disgusting invasion of privacy.”

5. She Swims

Frazer spends a lot of time outside. One thing she likes to do to stay in shape is going swimming. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself by the water. Frazer posted this set of photos of herself in Bali. In the first photo, she is seen taking a dip in a pool. She captioned the post, “Bali. And I might like the color green.” Frazer also shared this pool photo, captioning it, “More relaxing times.”
