Trainor has "never been more comfortable" in her bodyMeghan Trainor is sharing the intimate details of her weight loss journey.
In March 2025, Trainor wore a black off-the-shoulder dress to attend Billboard's Women in Music Awards. After fans took notice of her new appearance, Trainor addressed her significant weight loss on Instagram, attributing her transformation to "huge lifestyle changes" such as using the weight-loss drug Mounjaro and working with a dietitian.
"No, I don't look like I did 10 years ago. I've been on a journey to be the healthiest, strongest version of myself for my kids and for me," the singer — who shares two kids with her husband, Daryl Sabara — said.
In May, Trainor showed off her abs and recent breast augmentation surgery as she performed in a sparkly two-piece set at iHeartRadio's 102.7 KIIS FM Wango Tango.
"I have never been more comfortable in my body," she told PEOPLE in March 2025. "I've been working with a therapist for a long time, trying to rewire my brain to love myself more. It's always a work in progress, and that's why I write all these anthemic songs of, 'I love myself,' because it's constantly a thing I'm working on."
Here's everything Meghan Trainor has said about her weight loss.
Trainor began losing weight after welcoming her first son, Riley, in 2021. She lost 60 pounds through diet and exercise, she told Entertainment Tonight Canada in November 2022.
"I was in a really dark place, and I wanted to be in a great place for my son," she said. "I worked [out] every day. I learned that I do like healthy food, and I learned what portions mean."
After giving birth to her second son, Barry, in 2023, Trainor resumed her weight loss journey.
During an April 2025 episode of Trainor and Sabara's podcast, Workin' On It, the couple opened up about using Mounjaro, which is FDA-approved to treat type 2 diabetes. (The same medication under the brand name Zepbound is approved for weight loss, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.)
The couple decided to take Mounjaro after talking to their doctor, emphasizing that it wasn't a substitute for diet and exercise.
"You have to put in the work as well,' Trainor said. "We stay in the gym, we work out, we eat right, and we just noticed that we were less hungry."
While appearing on Today in December 2024, Trainor revealed that strength training has been critical in her weight loss journey, typically lifting three times a week.
'I didn't know lifting weights would change my life so much," Trainor said. "I was, like, dying, trying to run on the treadmill, and it made me swollen.'
In January 2025, the "All About That Bass" singer told Women's Health that her current fitness goal is to "grow my butt back."
"I lost so much weight that my booty is looking different," Trainor explained to the outlet. "I was like, 'Wait. I'm the 'Bass' girl with a big butt!' [I've been trying to] lift heavier and do [more] glute activities."
Trainor told Women's Health that she strives to eat 100 grams of protein a day. She'll typically snack on two eggs and organic turkey bacon for breakfast, while lunch and dinner usually come from a meal delivery service.
"I wish I knew how to cook. I make bland stuff," Trainor told the outlet. "But my husband is a nerd about finding food delivery companies that give you protein and help you out with a journey like that. So we're always looking for a new one."
Sabara and Trainor aren't just husband and wife — they're also workout buddies. They typically hit the gym three days a week while their nanny watches Riley and Barry.
While strength training is their primary focus, Trainor enjoys encouraging Sabara to push himself physically.
"I've been begging [Daryl] to join me so I'm not alone," she told Women's Health. "It's funny, I do hard stuff and he's like, 'I don't want to work that hard.' I'm like, 'But you should!' "

Meet the Gen Z 'stay-at-home son' who's selling his lifestyle as an aspirational brand

First, there were the trad wives. Then came the stay-at-home girlfriends. Now, a cohort of Gen Z men who live with their parents are rebranding, too. They call themselves stay-at-home sons, and they include early career professionals saving on rent, college dropouts struggling to find steady work, and unemployed Jeopardy champions. One such self-described stay-at-home son, 24-year-old Abdullah Abbasi, is monetizing his lifestyle through his clothing line, aptly named Stay At Home Sons, which he runs with two of his childhood friends. They sell hats, T-shirts, and hoodies emblazoned with their taglines: "Doing nothing is hard" and "Trust the fund." The brand is designed to be aspirational, not tongue-in-cheek. Its Instagram account is brimming with private jets and Ferraris and hashtags like #oldmoney, #richlife, and #wealth. The conspicuous consumption is the point. "It doesn't really matter how you got it, as long as you have it," Abbasi told Business Insider. Abbasi said he and his co-founders, who all live in a well-to-do Chicago suburb with their parents, earnestly believe that living with their families isn't a bad thing. The path to success doesn't necessarily mean moving out at 18 and living independently, they argue. "We wanted to unapologetically own the fact that we're happy to stay at home," he said. "I have no problem living with my family, and I think there's no shame in that." To be sure, Abbasi and his peers represent a privileged slice of young adults living with their parents: those with families well-off enough to help support them. In Abbasi's case, that means he doesn't pay rent and he doesn't need to make a certain income to satisfy his parents. "It's a household economy, everybody's money is everybody's," he said. Grown men living with their parents is nothing new. Many of them struggle to find work and affordable housing. Young people are more likely to live with their parents when jobs are hard to come by and wages are stagnant, according to Pew Research Center researcher Richard Fry, who authored a recent report on where in the country younger Americans live with their parents. Abbasi decided the stay-at-home son life was right for him during a summer in college that he spent living at home with his parents and not doing much of anything. He was relieved to get a break from dorm life, and it dawned on him how good life he had it at home, kicking it with his friends and hanging with his family. "Basically every night we were on the golf course, having dinner, going out, and during those extended hours of what most people would consider leisure time, we realized doing nothing is pretty hard," he joked. So Abbasi moved back home and started part-time online classes. In his spare time, he helps out with his family's businesses, which include a physical therapy venture and a medical administration company, and splits his time between Pakistan, Dubai, Canada, and Chicagoland. "Wherever the family goes, I go," he said.

No weights, no problem — this is the 15-minute no-equipment workout I'm doing to keep up my strength training on holiday

When I go on holiday, working out isn't a priority for me. However, I do like to give myself the option, so I often pack a pair of my best running shoes into my luggage for either a run or a quick visit to the hotel gym. I'm heading to Portugal next week and staying in a rental apartment, so with no gym available, I've been on the hunt for a no-equipment strength workout I can do from anywhere. One trainer who never lets me down when I need a quick and effective home-friendly workout is Kayla Itsines. With nearly 16 million Instagram followers, I know I'm not the only one who loves her content. That's where I came across her travel-friendly full-body workout, and it went straight into my saved posts. It includes six moves performed across three sets, which might sound like a lot, but the full routine only takes 15 minutes to complete. I gave it a test run before packing and found it quick, effective and surprisingly energizing. As I'm an early riser. Even on holiday, I'll likely be doing this routine out on the balcony before everyone else wakes up. That said, it's the kind of workout you could easily squeeze in during a midday siesta or before heading out for dinner. If you're heading somewhere warm and planning to keep up your running, the Saucony Triumph SG is a great pick. It's lightweight, breathable, and has a quick-pull lacing system that makes it easy to slip on and go. A post shared by KAYLA ITSINES (@kayla_itsines) A photo posted by on There are six exercises involved, all demonstrated by Itsines in the post above. It's worth watching her video so you can note the correct form. Each exercise is listed below. You'll spend 30 seconds on each move, so make sure to do this on each side for the unilateral exercises and don't forget to do all three rounds. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Itsines' routine is proof that you don't need a gym or a lot of time to get a solid full-body workout in. With six simple bodyweight moves repeated across three rounds, it targets your major muscle groups and gets your heart rate up in just 15 minutes. You'll kick things off with double-pulse sumo squats, a lower-body move that works your inner thighs and glutes while building strength and stability in your hips. Then it's into glute kickbacks and fire hydrants, which isolate the glutes and help improve balance, especially since you'll be working one side at a time. The commando and hover-to-plank combo brings in upper-body strength and core control, challenging your shoulders, arms and abs. Finally, ab bikes round things off with a burst of core work that also gives your obliques some attention. While it's quick, this type of session helps you build functional strength — the kind you use in everyday movements like climbing stairs, bending, or carrying things. As it's bodyweight-based, you're not just building muscle, but also working on your balance, mobility and endurance. The combination of core activation, unilateral work (where you focus on one side at a time) and full-body engagement means you're training in a balanced way that can help reduce injury risk and support long-term strength goals, too.
