“Adele lost the weight for herself. Being in LA and in her industry comes with pressures to look a certain way, so of course that was a very big motivator for her. There wasn’t one thing that happened at all to make her start dieting and working out more, she just seemed to do it. She wanted to do it slowly,” the insider revealed.

“She doesn’t really talk about it and people don’t really ask. She’s very, very private and seems to still be getting used to her new body and look. It was a really slow, gradual and healthy process,” continued the source, about Adele’s transformation.

“She finds it funny people think it just happened. She started this journey slowly a couple of years ago. People would notice small changes and then it became drastic looking over time. She’s always seemed happy and she just seems to be getting used to her new figure,” they added.
