In the comment section of a recent post, the fan asked: “I want to know how you are losing weight so gracefully.”
Ana, 51, very honestly, replied: “Went for a week to a fat-farm, exercise and wellness spa – @rancholapuerta – in Baja last August for a drastic reboot.
A one-week stay at the “family-owned and operated” Racho La Pureta resort starts at about $5,000 and can cost upwards of $7,500.
The experince appears to be well worth the price of admission as the The View host revealed: “I came back 6 lbs lighter and determined to get healthier.”
Ana then admitted: “I did zero exercise during quarantine and did a lot of food and booze instagrams instead.”
She then wrote: “I stopped all that,” punctuated with a “laugh-till-you cry face” emoji.
The 51-year-old TV star continued to detail her lifestayle change, writing: “Back home, I got a trainer. Joined @clubpilates in NY and Miami. Hired a pickle-ball coach. Got my closest friends to join. I try to play at least twice a week.
“Got medical and nutritional help and supervision. Started eating the things we all know are good for us, many more vegetables, fruits, grains, fish.”

She explained: “I stopped drinking alcohol at home and on planes/airports – where I spend a lot of time,” before jokingly confessing, “I still drink just about everywhere else…working on that.”
Ana provided the curious fan with the hard truth about weight loss as she admitted: “It’s not been over-night. It’s been a gradual 7 month, and counting, process. It’s a daily challenge.
“I went to Vegas a couple weeks ago, and gained 2 lbs in 2 days. Too much temptation in too close a proximity.”
She concluded by stating: “The struggle is real and endless.”
KEEPING IT REAL
On Saturday, Ana continued the open dialogue with her fans as provided her Instagram followrs with an another weight loss update.
The morning show host shared a photo of herself in the gym with the caption: “Between travel and other crazy stuff going on right now, I hadn’t done Pilates in three weeks.”
She continued: “Dragged myself back today. The class kicked my ass. Moral of the story: in life, we’re all gonna fall off the wagon every now and then.
“It’s ok. Don’t beat yourself up and just try to get yourself back on, little by little.”
Ana then took a moment to give her fans valuable advice on working out, writing” About pilates. I don’t like exercise. The trick is finding something you like -or at least, don’t hate doing.”
She stated: “Pilates has really helped me get healthier,” before then explaing how “Iit uses your own body’s resistance to build strength.”
In the post’s comment section, one person wrote: “Girl you are looking better than ever, if it’s Pilates, keep doing it. Sending blessing you your way.”
Another fan commented: “Thank you Ana I needed to hear this.”
While a third person stated: “Looking good Ana…keep it up.”
DRESSED TO IMPRESS
Earlier this month, the morning show host posted a video to social media that showed off her slimmed-down figure in a beautiful floral dress.
The beloved TV personality donned the wardrobe in a short video clip shared on her Instagram, in which she discussed her look for the day.
Ana looked wonderful as she wore natural but glamorous makeup and styled her dark hair down into waves.
The star opted for dark red nail polish and accessorized with simple jewelry, and added a pair of sky-high metallic platform heels to her look.
The most eye-catching part of her outfit, however, was her long blue floral dress, which fitted Ana’s figure perfectly.
Ana spoke to her followers and pointed out her love for the new item.
She stated: “So this week I saw on Instagram that my friend and somebody I admire tremendously, Shonda Rhimes, is now working partnering with St. John.
“I’ve never thought of St. John as very youthful, and then today I come to The View and then Fran Taylor had picked out a St. John dress.
She then exclaimed: “And look how beautiful this dress is. Shonda, you’re onto something, girl!”
The 51-year-old’s fans were quick to comment on her eye-catching look.
