After 10 days ofcommitment to the strict eating plan, the couple went all out on Thursday night with a feast that ran the gamut of tastiness: fried and sweet plantains, steak, rice, Brussels sprouts and more, as shown on Lopez’s Instagram story. She wrote over one photo of the impressive meal, “Worth the wait.”
Photos and videoson Rodriguez’s accountshowed the retired baseball star, 43, chowing down while seated in front of a carb lover’s dream spread: pizza, French fries, chicken wings and a variety of sweets. Hilariously, Rodriguez soundtracked one of his Instagram story photos withTrey Songz‘ “Dive In.”

On Jan. 24, Rodriguez and the singer challengedLeah Remini, producer Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas andTodayco-host Kotb to not eat carbs or sugar for 10 days — a dare Kotb, 54, and Strahan, 47,enthusiastically took on. (As didCarson Daly, but hegave up after less than a day.)
Kotb told Lopez,who called in to theTodayshowon Friday, that she could “feel Sunday coming already” and how she’s “envisioning exactly what I’m gonna inhale” in terms of food.
TheWorld of Dancejudge admitted that when her challenge ended, she had three bites of oatmeal and felt “done” because much of her cravings had gone away over the course of the 10 days and “you just can’t fit as much down.”
On the flip side, “Alex went crazy,” Lopez joked. “I was dreaming about what I was gonna eat, but the truth is you get to a point where you can’t fit that much downafter you remove that much of the carbsbecause that’s really what bloats you and gives you all that inflammation.”
Lopez, 49, explained that she would be “eating normal” for five days beforetaking on the challenge for a second roundsince it has made her feel so good.

The biggest thing she learned over the last week and a half? “Just how [different]taking sugar out of your dietnot only makes you feel, but what it does to your body,” theSelenaactress shared, complimenting Kotb on her physique.
“She looks good but she had a couple grouchy days,J. Lo. You don’t have to live with her,” joked co-hostSavannah Guthrie, crossing her arms in mock disapproval.
