The rotund days are in the past for Chaz Bono, who after losing 43 pounds a couple months ago, is now down more than 60 lbs, and "still slowly losing" weight, as he told People. 

The former Dancing with the Stars contestant has implemented a variety of different exercises into his routine on his path to a svelte frame. 

Obviously, the 44-year-old Bono has not forgotten the dancing he did on season 13 of the popular ABC dancing competition as he made clear during Saturday's GLAAD awards: 

"I still enjoy dancing. I still take classes." 

But Bono isn't content to just dance his way to a slimmer life. He's also incorporated mixed martial arts into his weight loss regime. But Bono's aerobic activities aren't as important as what he consumes on his plate.

Bono believes it's his diet that's really helped him lose the excess baggage, saying "I've just changed the way I eat." 

The famous transgender daughter, then son, of Sonny and Cher, has used the freshology-delivered meal plans to eat more healthy. And Bono understands that traditional dieting doesn't work if you're still consuming a ton of fatty foods, so you have to switch up how you eat. Says Bono, "Diets don't work. You just have to change what you eat, and I have."

Bono announced his public mission to lose 50 lbs. in mid-November last year, and for the most part he's stuck to that path; although, he says he doesn't have a favorite health food of choice: 

"I cook a lot of different stuff. I really avoid grains and starches, so meats and vegetables and fruits are my diet. I make them all different ways to keep it interesting."
