Alright, let's dive in. If you're going to take diet and workout advice, who better to learn from than Jennifer Lopez? The star of Second Act is currently on Day 5 of her 10-day no-carb, no-sugar diet, and she's already looking incredible. But here's the twist: instead of just focusing on her own progress, J.Lo has decided to challenge others to join her. And guess who’s next on her list? That’s right—Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie! Can you imagine the morning show with these ladies feeling the effects of a sugar-free diet?
How It All Began: J.Lo’s Diet Challenge
Jen, now 49, shared her thoughts on an Instagram Story on January 23, saying, “We’re in the middle of our 10-day challenge, and it’s getting lonely.” She continued, “We’d like to challenge, let’s challenge some people. So, no sugar, no carbs, 10 days. I’m challenging Leah Remini, I’m challenging Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, and I’m challenging Hoda. Hoda, I know you’re up for a good challenge.”
Now, let’s break this down. J.Lo is not just challenging for fun; she's on a mission. She believes in the power of resetting your body, and she wants others to experience the same transformation she’s seeing. By calling out Hoda and Savannah, she’s bringing the challenge to a whole new level—right into the homes of millions of viewers.

J.Lo Calls In to the Today Show

Hoda Kotb, 54, accepted the challenge that day, but J.Lo wasn’t done yet. She called into the Today show on January 25 to answer questions about the diet—and surprise, surprise—she challenged Savannah Guthrie, 47, to join in as well! This was not just a casual call; it was a full-blown challenge. J.Lo, who’s following the diet alongside her boyfriend, Alex Rodriguez, had plenty to say about how the diet works.
The Rules of the Diet
Here’s the deal: no sugar, no carbs. That’s right—nothing with sugar or carbs allowed. As J.Lo explained during the call, “You realize how much stuff has sugar in it. So yesterday, I said, ‘OK, I’m going to have a turkey burger with some lettuce and some onions and pickles.’ But they said no pickles. Pickles have so much sugar in them!”
When Savannah started to ask a question, J.Lo surprised her by yelling, “You’re officially challenged, Savannah!” Not thrilled, Savannah asked if tequila and a squeeze of lime juice were allowed. Classic Savannah!

Jen tried her best to convince her friends by sharing the positive results. “It’s a challenge to reset your body. It’s something you do to clean yourself out. You lose a bunch of pounds on it, you will lose inches,” she said. When the hosts asked if they could do a five-day challenge instead, Jen firmly denied the request. “Once you get rid of those sugars and carbs, it just starts coming over. I’m halfway through, five days through, and I already see a difference,” she explained.
The Outcome: Who’s In?
By the time J.Lo hung up, all five hosts decided to take part in the challenge. Can you picture it? Hoda and Savannah diving headfirst into this intense diet. We can’t wait to see the results, ladies!
