In this month’s issue of Shape, Ellen DeGeneres reveals that although today it’s all about eating vegan, years ago she was a horrible eater, downing anything from cheeseburgers to steak.

“I can’t believe how irresponsible I was, eating what I ate,” she said. “All I did was eat. Cheeseburgers, fried chicken, fried things.”

Today she doesn’t starve herself, but consumes copious amounts of anything that grows in the ground, a prescription of “no animals, no dairy, nothing processed; a lot of soup, veggies, rice, beans, legumes.”

She opts for healthier fried “things,” as she revealed her breakfast for the morning of the interview as a “bok choy rice stir-fry thing.”

“I want to be on my toes; I want to have energy,” she added. “And as much as the diet seems like a sacrifice, it’s helping me.”
