The Bob Trevino Likes It star has neither shared a specific fitness or diet plan nor responded to rumors that she’s been taking a GLP-1 . She has, however, been vocal about self-image and the body positivity movement in the past: “I think bigger bodies are not as ‘trendy’ as they used to be, which is really sad to me.

Although she left Euphoria after season 2, Ferreira previously shared her career goals with PEOPLE, explaining, “I knew what I wanted from a very young age.”
