Mariah Carey just might be in the best shape of her life...and she's just about 30 years into her career!
On the star's Instagram, she showed off her body in a dazzling bikini and makeup. In these posts from January of 2019, you can see how her consistent diet and exercise routine payed off.
In the past, Carey has opened up about her struggle to lose weight despite all the diets she tried. The 48-year-old left us wondering and dying to know exactly how she trimmed down and got the figure she has today.
Lucky for us, she tells us exactly how she maintains her body! Here is a breakdown of everything she has done and continues to do.
As far as her diet, a source close to the celebrity shared with HollywoodLife.com that Carey stands by a total sugar-free diet and sticks to lean protein.
The source shared that "Mariah loves smoked salmon and capers, so she eats a lot of that lean protein, but the secret to her success has been the one thing that she cut out almost completely, and that is processed sugar. She has cut out chocolate and other sweets, and when she has cravings, she eats little pieces of fruit, like some blueberries or mangos. She is working out regularly and eating clean, whole foods with a focus on vegetables. She has also cut out carbs and bread. As a result, she has lost a ton of weight and is looking and feeling great!"
After giving birth to her kids, Carey personally talked with Us Weekly and said that she stuck to a 1,500 calories a day with the help of her full-time dietitian. Instead of the traditional three meals a day, the star would have multiple smaller meals to keep her energy levels up.
Her biggest diet tip is surprisingly to not weigh yourself!
As far as her exercise routine, it is more intense than it ever was before.
According to Us Weekly, she works out three times a week to maintain her weight. Her workouts include a lot of aerobics.

You look great Mariah!
