So, how does she do it all, while walking the red carpet, touring the country,recording albums AND looking flawlessly fit? Carrie divulged all her health secrets to Cosmopolitan, and her fitness and wellness tips seem surprisingly manageable. She makes juggling a vegan lifestyle with her athlete husband’s diet and kids’ look easy.
For breakfast, it’s usually Kashi cereal, vegan breakfast burritos or a tofu scramble. She tracks her diet and keeps a food journal, because much like the rest of us, her stomach is a “bottomless pit”.
“It’s like there’s no sensor between my stomach and brain that says, ‘Hey, you’re full, stop eating!’ Once I recognized that about myself, I started tracking my diet, which helps me make better choices and pay attention to what I’m eating,” she said to Cosmopolitan.

I feel like this picture pretty much sums up fatherhood! 😂 To all the frog catching, bedtime story reading, wrestling, diaper changing, outside playing, adventure seeking, tickling, cuddling, loving dads out there, Happy Father’s Day! @mfisher1212 your boys sure do love you and are are so lucky to have you! ❤️
Had some extra special help with sound check today, so tonight’s show is bound to sound amazing!!! 😍🎶🎤
We had a day off today and we were near @sesameplace so we took the boys! We all had so much fun! Isaiah got to see some of his furry monster friends and we got to watch him love every minute! I think even Jacob had fun! We rode rides, played games and even saw a parade! We already can’t wait to come back!!! Thanks to Dana and the staff for being so sweet to us! ❤️ #Elmo #CookieMonster #BigBird #SesameStreet
Want. To. Eat. These. Toes. 🦶
I can no longer tie my own shoes…So glad I have such sweet helpers! 💖
Even Santa’s helper gets a little tired getting ready for Christmas! 🎄❤️😴
This was about 30 seconds before I went on stage tonight…❤️❤️❤️ @hardrockhcac
Anyone see this on the bridge today? Isaiah wanted all the #CMAfest goers to feel welcome in our great city! 😂 #sweetboy #WelcomeToNashville
Prediction: This won’t end well…🤪
Fun fact: the only animal I do NOT like is a turtle. I’m fine with 🐍s and 🕷s and anything else that most people find scary, but 🐢s are NOT OK. (That said I’ll still pull my car over to help one cross the road…even though I don’t like it). I’m glad my son doesn’t share my feelings… #turtlesareweird #walkfaster #pleasedontbiteme
@mfisher1212 catching air… I’m next. 😂 Just kidding.
Just a typical Thursday night at the Fisher house…featuring Catboy, Gekko and Owlette! It’s time to be a hero! #PJMasks
Love these farm boys!!! We went out to #LuckyLaddFarms today! What a sweet place…Isaiah had a blast!
Dear ladies,
Make sure you marry someone who makes time to do the “hot dog dance” with your kid right before leaving for work! So sweet! ❤️❤️❤️
This pic… ❤️
Morning cartoons with Cousin Wesley…❤️ Wesley makes Isaiah look so big! I can only imagine the trouble these two are going to get into with the rest of their cousins in a few years!
My workout buddy…mama’s in @caliabycarrie and the big man is in his fire truck PJs…whatever works! #StayThePath PS, please excuse my yoga form…I don’t do much yoga, but like to stretch…

Carrie tries not to order in or eat out, because she “likes knowing what’s in [her] food, and it’s hard to tell when someone else makes it for you.” So, she cooks.
For lunch, it’s usually a sandwich with Ezekiel bread and tofurkey, with lots of mustard. Throughout the day, Carrie will snack on snack cereal, seitan jerky or a peanut butter-topped English muffin. Dinner is usually filled with proteins like beans or tofu with whole wheat pasta.
And for dessert? Dark chocolate.
