So this is a big deal for me. I'm getting a boob job. I'm getting a lift.' The mom-of-two has previously talked about her struggles when it comes to nursing her kids. Meghan explained, 'Listen, these don't make milk. So when I have more children, these don't make milk anyways. So it's time to lift my boobs, I'm so excited.'

The singer shared the surgery was in collaboration with the company Motiva and that the implants she got have a 'natural look and feel.' 'My breasts look fuller yet completely natural and they complement my body proportions beautifully. They're finally twin sisters and not distant cousins.'

The songstress added, 'Then, we heard more and more of our friends - and even our doctors - were on Mounjaro and Ozempic.' She eventually decided to try Mounjaro due to there being less side effects.

Trainor explained that they both take the lowest dose of Mounjaro while also consistently working out and eating healthy. 'We were like, "We have to make sure we don't lose muscle that we worked so hard gaining all those years. We stay in the gym, we work out, we eat right, and we just noticed that we were less hungry.' Daryl added, '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.' The couple - who married in 2018 - shared that they use smaller plates when eating to help control portion sizes. She stated, '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.' During the podcast episode, Trainor also told her listeners that she has 'no shame' when it comes to taking the weight-loss drug.

How Did Meghan Trainor Lose Weight? Inside Her Exercise Plan, Mounjaro and ‘Huge Lifestyle Changes'
Fans of Meghan Trainor have been in awe of her weight loss transformation in 2025 and have been wondering how she achieved her slimmer figure. Thankfully, the 'All About That Bass' hitmaker is an open book when it comes to her health and fitness journey. Life & Style breaks down everything the singer has said about how she lost weight, including Mounjaro use, her exercise plan and her diet. After months of speculation from fans that Meghan used a weight loss drug to shed pounds, the 'Made You Look' singer admitted to using Mounjaro — a type 2 diabetes drug often prescribed off label for weight loss due to its ability to reduce appetite and slow down digestion. '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. I've worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support (shoutout to Mounjaro!) to help me after my 2nd pregnancy. And I'm so glad I did because I feel great,' Meghan wrote in a March 31, 2025, Instagram post after seeing and hearing comments about her body at the 2025 Billboard Women in Music event. Meghan later discussed her use of the drug, which is a brand name for the medication tirzepatide, on the April 10, 2025, episode of her and husband Daryl Sabara's 'Workin' On It' podcast. 'We did 75 Hard after [our son] Riley was born and, man, did we crush,' Daryl said. Meghan added, 'Then, we heard more and more of our friends — and even our doctors — were on Mounjaro and Ozempic.' Meghan and Daryl both decided to try Mounjaro because research found that it had fewer side effects than other weight loss drugs, such as Wegovy and Ozempic. The Grammy winner said she had 'no shame' in using the medication. However, she and Daryl also made sure that they kept up with their gym routines and diet plans so they didn't 'lose muscle that we worked so hard gaining all those years.'' Meghan and Daryl have worked out together for years, and their various gym routines have been shared on Instagram by personal trainers Rebecca Stanton and Bella Maher. And though fitness has long been important to Meghan, she told People that she decided to take it more seriously in 2024 while preparing to go on tour. 'I already told my household. I was like, 'I am training for the Olympics, OK?' I want to train and eat clean, and feel good when I'm dancing and singing. I don't wanna be so winded, because right now, I'm winded,' she explained. Her new routine helped her get stronger, as she explained to Women's Health. "I just look at all the years that I wasted doing hard cardio or trying to be a runner. My body was always just angry and inflamed. I was like, 'What's wrong with me? Why can't I do this?'" Meghan said. "I know now that my body enjoys lifting weights and it doesn't make you big and bulky." Meghan revealed to Women's Health that she has a goal of eating 100 grams of protein a day. To achieve this, she often eats two eggs and organic turkey bacon for breakfast, plus recipes from meal delivery services for lunches and dinners. "I want to mix it up, but I'm such a creature of habit that we'll do the same thing every day," she said. "I wish I knew how to cook. I make bland stuff. 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." While Meghan hasn't shared exactly how much weight she's lost, she revealed that she shed 60 pounds after she gave birth to her and Daryl's son Riley in 2021. They later welcomed son Barry in July 2023.

From ‘All About That Bass' to ‘Criminals,' How Meghan Trainor Keeps Churning Out Hits
'I consider a hit song one that my 3-year-old knows,' Meghan Trainor says. The 31-year-old pop star and mother of two sons, Riley and Barry, says that her first-born has been jamming to Lady Gaga's 'Abracadabra' lately and also loves Billie Eilish and Miley Cyrus. When her own breakout single, 'All About That Bass,' reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014, she noticed that the song connected with both young children and adults. 'So if I get kids involved in my songs as well as adults, I'm like, 'Oh, that's a hit,' ' she says. A decade removed from 'All About That Bass,' a body-positive doo-wop riff that went viral years before TikTok, the former best new artist Grammy Award winner has fashioned a career as a chart stalwart with all-ages appeal. After her first two albums, 2015's Title and 2016's Thank You, produced six top 20 hits on the Hot 100 combined, Trainor spent the rest of the decade releasing one-off singles and collaborations, dabbling in film and TV projects and starting a family with her husband, actor Daryl Sabara. She returned to the Hot 100 in 2022 with 'Made You Look,' which spawned a widespread dance trend online and peaked at No. 11, and 'Criminals,' from her 2024 album, Timeless, reached the chart last year after serving as the theme song to the hit Netflix drama The Perfect Couple.

Two more kids ('There's so many dudes here — I want a baby girl') and, maybe, leveraging her music career into a big-screen debut. 'I want to be in a rom-com and then write the song for it,' she says. 'Who do I have to talk to?' Which of your own hits sticks with you the most? I love the reactions I get from the audience. There's nothing harder than when you're onstage and you're a songwriter and you're like, 'You don't know this one?!' And when they do, you see me call out people who know every word. I know 'Me Too' is always going to be fun. I know 'Lips Are Movin' ' is always going to be a blast. When you're in the studio, do you think about what the potential hits will be? Usually when I'm writing an album, I'll have one song that's my favorite and I'll say, 'This is the top girl. This is how I want the entire album to sound like and we need to beat her.' For [the 2022 album] Takin' It Back, I had 'Don't I Make It Look Easy.' 'Made You Look' came after, and every day we just tried to beat it. Why do you think the TikTok audience loves you so much? My songs are really hooky. My main thing when I'm trying to write a song is I want you to be able to sing the melody by the second chorus. I think my stuff was just catchy enough that [TikTok users] could use the sound or make a simple dance to it or have fun and show something. I've noticed 'Made You Look' still being used to sell products. I'm like, 'That's my song!' I still freak out. Hearing new artists like Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter, what do you think a hit sounds like now? I need you to answer this for me, Sir Billboard, because I'm literally about to start my next album. There's so many open lanes. Chappell and Sabrina are bringing instruments in and beautiful melodies and taking risks. What Doechii is doing — she's just changing the world through art and [her] talent is thriving. Going into my next album, I'm nervous but also excited because there's no more rules. Is there something to be said about writing for yourself versus working with others? I love learning from others. I always [say], 'Please put me in a room with a better tennis player than me so I can learn more about tennis.' And sometimes going into a session with new people is scary. It's like blind dating. And then you have to go, 'Let's try to create magic together.' My goal on this album is to find as many writers I love that I can collaborate with. I love Daniel Nigro. I want to work with him so bad. If you're reading this, that's my dream. And Andrew Watt. Andrew, pick me, choose me, love me. We would do something magical.
