physical and mental health. As a result, the pop star has been able to sustain her weight loss
and healthy lifestyle with a specific dietary and exercise regimen.
She has taken to eating more controlled portions and is popularly thought to have followed the
rainbow diet, simply eating foods that correlate to a specific colour every day.
So ‘White day’ would be all white foods—bananas, egg white, coconut, cauliflower, whitefish,
dairy products, etc. And ‘Red Day’ would be red grapes, cranberries, red currant, guelder rose,
tomato, kidney beans, beetroot, lean red meat, etc. Read more about the Rainbow Diet

Christina also made it a point to mention she has stayed away from sweets, sugar, alcohol, and
unhealthy snacking. And has taken to drinking at least 2 litres of water every day.

exercise more than muscle building (though these exercises build muscle too!).
Here’s her workout plan:

Celebrity Weight Loss #5 – Adele
With the release of ‘Easy on me’, one of the highest-rated singles to date. The Pop Icon Adele,
33, has been thrust into the limelight. Revealing that we have not only gotten a new single but
that Adele has been working herself just as much as she’s been working on her music!
After losing a staggering 100 pounds in the last two years, Adele’s physical transformation has
been one of the most popular topics of conversation and inspiration in the past year.
She has gone through many changes, and for her own mental and physical health, she has
pushed herself to lose weight and be more fit all around. She has succeeded tremendously and
has been an inspiration to everyone worldwide.
Adele has stated she never followed any diet to lose weight. Shutting down the notion of any
intermittent fasting or being on the ‘sirtfood diet’. Saying that, if anything, she eats more now
that she works out so hard.
As it appears, Adele’s exercise routine has been the primary source of her weight loss, and
when we look at her routine, it is easy to see why this is highly likely.
Her routine involves working out three times a day, every day, doing weight exercise in the
morning. Then Boxing or going on hikes in the afternoon. Then finally Cardio in the evening.
This is quite a lot of exercise and is likely only possible thanks to the guidance of Adele’s
personal trainer Greg Miele.
While Adele’s routine is the most loosely structured, it’s clear that her motivation and reason for
wanting to lose weight were the driving factors behind her transformation. Giving us the clear
takeaway that we need to do it for the right reasons, for our health and well-being. And as long
as we are consistent and motivated, we can reach our goals just as she has.
