She says "life is good" and it's easy to see why for Maria Menounos.
The stunning Extra co-host tweeted the comment alongside a photo of herself showing off her stunning bikini body.
Reclining on a diving board with a cocktail in hand, Maria looked toned and tanned as she soaked up the sun during a mini break with friends in Palm Springs.
"My bff valerie fatehi is playing photog w/me in Palm Springs right now," she wrote.
The 34-year-old - who brought her beloved pet dogs along on the trip - also shared another bikini snap of herself hiding in the lush green bushes.
Maria - who struggled with her weight when she was younger and gained 40 lbs in college - has one of the most enviable figures in Hollywood and RadarOnline.com recently revealed her stay-fit secrets.
"I've kept it off for 13 years by eating what I want but in small portions," she told Shape magazine.
"I try to always have almonds around, but bananas are my staple. They're sweet, satisfying and give me the energy I need to keep going."
She also works with trainer Astrid McGuire and hikes with her boyfriend Kevin Undergaro as well as hitting the basketball court with him daily too.
