If you noticed a slimmer, more svelte Trisha Yearwood at Sunday’s ACM Awards, there’s a reason. Trisha tells People she’s been dieting and exercising and has lost about 20 pounds.

However, she admits she didn’t completely give up all her favorite foods to fit in the stunning orange and red Stella McCartney dress she wore.  “I’m doing very little sugar,” she says. “And occasionally I have the mac and cheese.”

The host of Food Network’s Trisha’s Southern Kitchen isn’t afraid to admit to she struggles with her size.

“Real people battle their weight,” she says. “We all struggle between eating healthy and falling off the wagon. That’s how I live.”
