Couples that lose weight together stay together it seems.
Meghan Trainor and her husband, Spy Kids actor Daryl Sabara, 32, are both on a weight loss journey.
Meghan has lost an impressive amount of weight through the use of Mounjaro, the type 2 diabetes medicine.
On the April 10 episode of their Workin’ On It podcast, the couple opened up about their Mounjaro use.
‘We did 75 Hard after our son Riley was born and, man, did we crush,’ Sabarao said.
‘Then, we heard more and more of our friends — and even our doctors — were on Mounjaro and Ozempic,’ Trainor, 31, added.

Trainor said she decided to take Mounjaro because ‘it had less side effects’ than other weight-loss drugs.
‘I was like, “I don’t want any of that,”‘ and ‘”I know how to do it on my own,”‘ Meghan explained. ‘I could do that, but when I asked my doctor, I was like, “Tell me everything.” I did the research, and I felt safe.’
‘So, I did it, too,’ Sabara said before Trainor quickly quipped, ‘Daryl and I both do everything together.’
‘I also gained some [sympathy] pregnancy weight,’ said Daryl, who shares sons Riley and Barry with Meghan.
‘We’ve been on this journey for a while and we learned how there are right ways to do it,’ he added.
Meghan went on to note that she and Daryl are only taking the lowest dose’ possible of Mounjaro while also working out more and eating balanced, healthy meals.
‘We were like, “We have to make sure we don’t lose muscle that we worked so hard gaining all those years,”‘ Meghan explained.
‘We stay in the gym, we work out, we eat right, and we just noticed that we were less hungry.’

‘You have to put in the work as well’ the Mother singer explained, saying that she and her husband made sure to maintain healthy lifestyle habits in addition to taking the weight-loss drug.
‘We’ve been on this journey for a while and we learned how there are right ways to do it and there are improper ways to do it,’ Sabara added.
The couple discovered a useful way to control their portion size — they eat off small plates.
‘I learned all these little tricks that changed my life,’ Meghan shared. ‘I literally bought smaller plates ‘cause I’m like, “No, you can’t put too much rice on there.”
She continued: ‘I’m obsessed now with the science of when I work out and build muscle, you have to eat protein or else it’s not going to do anything.”
The All About That Bass hitmaker said she has ‘no shame’ about using the drug to lose weight.
Over the years, she has read countless comments dissecting her body, including in March after she was honored at the Billboard Women in Music event.
‘Everyone just wants to talk about my body and we’re not here about my body. I’m here about my music,’ she said.

‘I’m reading these comments and I go, “Oh my God, these are all bad.” There was not one nice comment. Like, the meanest things I’ve ever been told. I look up and I just started sobbing.’
Trainor said her two of her close friends consoled her and told her she’s beautiful, reminding her that people on social media aren’t important.
‘I just felt like a 13-year-old girl being bullied out loud in front of my whole class again,’ she continued.
‘Later I was so frustrated. Everyone’s calling me “Ozempi Ozempi” so I’m just going to explain my journey with my health in an Instagram post and I’m never going to talk to them about it ever again on my social media.’
‘Everyone, leave me alone or stop talking about my body,’ she said.
‘I’m really proud of myself for learning,” Meghan shared. ‘It was really hard to do and I’m going to keep getting better and keep getting stronger, achieve things I never thought I could achieve and no one can stop me — not even mean comments.’
