Demi Lovato is done with diet culture.

The "I Love Me" singer opened up on Monday that she had lost a few pounds, which she says was not intentional. Taking to her Instagram, the 28-year-old artist posted a video of herself standing before a mirror and showing off her stretchy jeans.

"Accidentally lost weight," wrote Demi. "I don't count calories anymore. I don't over exercise anymore. I don't restrict or purge. And I especially don't live my life accordingly to the diet culture ... and I've actually lost weight."

She also shared a post in which she showed off "unrealistic beauty expectations."

This isn't the first time the singer documented her journey of self-acceptance. After coming clean about her years-long battle with eating disorders and self-esteem issues, Lovato proudly showed off her stretch marks in a December snap.

Writing how she initially believed "recovery from an eating disorder wasn't real" and that relapses were common, the "Anyone" singer celebrated her improved mental state and recovery process.
