These are Usher‘s confessions.
The Grammy winner is sharing insight into his health and wellness routine, including why he doesn’t eat any meals on Wednesdays.
“I fast, not for religious purposes, but it’s something my grandmother practiced,” Usher told WSJ. Magazine in an interview published June 17. “I fast on Wednesdays. I typically try to start around 11 p.m. the previous day, then go the entire day on Wednesday just drinking water.”
When it’s not Wednesday, however, the 45-year-old revealed the type of meals he makes in the mornings. “I sometimes eat eggs scrambled with cheese,” he continued. “For the most part, I like them poached or over easy.”
And if you thought Usher was only disciplined on Wednesday’s, he explained why he’s particular about his exercise schedule.
“I don’t like to eat breakfast before I’ve worked out or done something physical,” he said, “taking a walk, stretching or doing yoga, sitting in the sun and raising my body’s natural heat levels. Then I eat.”
