Beyonce Hits The Beach with her Post Baby Body

Beyonce and Jay Z were seen relaxing at a beach in St Barts recently. I think Beyonce is looking fantastic!

How is Beyonce losing her baby weight?

Beyonce is losing her baby weight by following this workout plan and exercise regime:

Twice-a-day, two-hour workouts. “Beyonce and Marco are up at 5 a.m. for a two-hour workout, and they do it again at 5 p.m.,” says the source. “They do a mix of cardio, Pilates, plyometrics, yoga and, of course, dance.”
Six tiny high-protein meals a day. “She’s living on protein shakes, egg-white omelettes, pineapple chunks and lots of ice-cold water,” the source reveals.

How To: Not Be Fat

It’s been a while since I posted lots of celebrity diet tips all in the one place. If you want to lose weight and look like a celebrity, follow these tips and you’ll be on your way!

Carrie Underwood: “When I gain weight, it’s in the spare-tire area. I’ve told trainers abs are a physical impossibility for me. And every single time, they’re like, ‘Well, we’ll get you abs!’ So do I have them? No! But they’re as flat as they’re probably going to get. Push-ups work out everything. If you do them right, you’ll feel it in your abs. I do four sets of 10 to 20.”

Jessica Alba: Alba does this all-over toning move: Begin standing and holding 5lb dumbbells – your left arm should be chin height and your right arm should be extended to the ceiling. Take a giant step to your right, landing in a lunge, with your right knee bent and angled slightly forward. Keep your left leg straight while simultaneously lowering right arm to shoulder height. Pause momentarily, then push off your right leg, returning to the starting position with your feet together and right arm extended to ceiling. Perform 12 reps then repeat on left side. Perform 2 sets.

Cheryl Cole: While in girl band Girls Aloud Cheryl lost a lot of weight, and this was mostly down to the hectic schedule and continuous rehearsals and gigs, which simply meant she was burning a lot of calories doing dance workouts. Cheryl would often perform this fitness routine, as devised by the bands personal trainer: 30 minutes running on the treadmill. 60 minutes weight training exercises.

Zoe Saldana: Instead of only sweating to look good for one big event, Saldana strives to make healthy habits second nature. “After the premiere of Avatar, Steve felt like my training dropped off and he was like, ‘You need to come back.’ He was right, you really have to nurture your body,” she explains. “I have a lot of respect for people who do it, because it’s a lifestyle.”

Rihanna: Rihanna admits her body is the result of “a lot of hard work and a lot of running on the treadmill.” Carbs are the enemy but if I go three days without them, I start getting weak. If my trainer had her way, I’d eat small meals every three hours, but I sometimes only eat once or twice a day. I work out every day but I need a trainer to motivate me – I don’t find it much fun working out on my own.” “Everyone wants to have slim, perfectly-toned legs and I’m the same. I do weights but I don’t want my legs to bulk up so I do a lot of cardio. I’ve lost a lot of weight since I started working out and if I exercise every day for a week, I can drop several pounds. If I diet, I see even faster results.”

Adriana Lima: Exercises 2 hours 6 days a week. Working out should be a part of everybody’s routine,” she says. “I know sometimes you don’t have time — that’s why I love jumping rope, because you can take it with you anywhere and you don’t need to do it, like, one hour. You can do it ten minutes and it’s like 45 minutes of running.”

Amanda Seyfried: “Running a half hour four to five days a week keeps me alright–five days, because I feel guilty when I don’t. I also go to Harley Pasternak’s three times a week, and I love it. He’s fun and we do different things every time. It’s 45 minutes, and he kicks my ass! My legs are really strong, and I feel really great. And I go to my pilates teacher, Nikiko, on the weekends–she’s all about stretching and toning and being long and lean.”

Anna Paquin: “I like to mix things up so I’m not doing the same thing every single day,” she said. She also works out on the elliptical and stationary bike she keeps in her garage. “Let’s face it, gyms aren’t open at four in the morning. So if I can’t do anything else, I can get a perfectly good workout in my garage!”

Miranda Kerr: Miranda spends about four sessions of 75 minutes each at the gym. Her workout is usually a combination of exercises targeting all muscle groups, but which places emphasis on her legs. Thus, Gelband says, Kerr does 30 minutes on her legs, 30 on her core, arms and balance, and 15 minutes on stretching afterwards. To keep her legs lean and toned (and, of course, cellulite-free), Miranda also does a 5-kilometer run and weight work, plus some boxing on the side.

Katy Perry: While Perry admits she hates working out, she stays fit by jumping rope. “I love jumping rope,” she said. “It’s like dancing. I can double jump, I can cross, I can do all of it. I look like Rocky!” “On holidays I eat whatever I feel like,” she told Women’s Health. “But on tour the catering is a lot of grilled chicken—nothing fried. Everything is organic, and I have soy milk. No chips in sight—if they’re in front of you, you eat them.”

Beyonce: An upper body workout can get boring with all those repetitions, so Knowles added her own twist. “I’ll put on a song that I really like and do [biceps curls with] 5-pound weights the whole song,” she told us. Or, using 3-pound weights, she’ll box for the length of one track.

Megan Fox: “I’m very lazy. I hire a personal trainer who is supposed to come three times a week. He comes to me – I don’t even have to leave the house. He’ll come to my house and I’ll be lying in the exact same spot he left me in. I’ll be like: ‘Not today! Not today!’” Even though Fox doesn’t like to exercise, she does it in order to keep those flat abs. She starts with 30 minutes of cardio, and then another half an hour of Pilates or cycling to burn some more calories and keep her slim figure.

A Million Celebrity Diet Tips!

Well not quite a million. But here are a heap of diet tips I found on people.com!
I have posted some of the individual tips before, it’s good to have a lot in one place though

1. Hayden Panettiere
Less (clothing) is more. “There are parts of my body that I don’t mind and parts that I can’t stand,” the actress admits. How she gets around it: bathing suits (“There’s nothing constricting the bad areas”) and “long, flowy summer dresses. You never feel fat.”

2. Is a tomboy. “I’ve always played a lot of sports—volleyball, softball, baseball. I was a gymnast for nine years.”

3. Walks with her dogs. When she’s not working, Panettiere takes daily strolls with her pets up the hill near her West Hollywood condo.

4. Jennifer Aniston
Is consistent. While filming Marley & Me in Miami, the actress has been working out for an hour a day on the hotel’s elliptical machine.

5. Makes workouts fun. Aniston does her cardio to her iPod.

6. Watches the cocktails. She’s fond of red wine and lychee martinis— but usually sticks to just one.

7. Eats fish. In Miami, a typical meal for Aniston has been three rolls of sushi or a fish entrée at Michael’s Genuine.

8. Hugh Jackman
His workouts consist of “interval strength training”—doing, say, a squat and a shoulder press at the same time.

9. ZAC EFRON
“I definitely love to stay active. If it gets me outside and gets me moving, then I love doing it.”

10. Rihanna
“I go through a phase where I just eat whatever. Then when I’m finally fed up, I stop and I’m back on my regimen. And it keeps going like that.”

11. “I do the elliptical for 30-40 minutes. I speed it up in between, then I come down, then I come up some more.”

12. “I hate vegetables but vegetables help. Carbs are my biggest enemy.”

13. “If I know I’m going on vacation, I’ll do Pilates for two weeks straight.”

14. Flaunts her assets. Her favorite body part? “My butt. It makes my clothes look good. It’s not a dress—it’s a dress! My butt perks up everything.”

15. Anne Hathaway
“When I’m working, I’m incredibly disciplined, because when you’re portraying someone else, your body isn’t your own. But when I’m not working, I think less about what I eat. For example, last night I had a club sandwich and two nights ago I had pizza. You’ve got to live!”

ELIZABETH MITCHELL
16. “I normally eat everything under the sun. But once a year for a month, I eat fruits, vegetables, nuts and lean fish, and I feel great.”

LEIGHTON MEESTER
17. “Just have a little bit of something that you want. Don’t overdo it.”

Claire Danes
18. The star’s trainer Joe Dowdell says three days of cardio a week “is healthy. You shouldn’t go to extremes.”

Penélope Cruz
19. Doesn’t obsess about working out. “She gets in, gets the work done, gets out,” says her trainer Gunnar Peterson.

20. Gets plenty of sleep. “I think she gets more than eight hours a night,” Peterson says. “She never comes into a workout sluggish or tired.”

21. Doesn’t believe in bad eating days. “If she eats fries, then she eats them and moves on to the next thing. It’s not a big deal,” Peterson says.

22. Keeps her body proportioned. “She has a butt—and the key for anyone with a butt is to do adequate shoulder work, to balance things out.”

23. Gwyneth Paltrow
Works out six days a week, doing dance aerobics for cardio.

24. Sets goals. For the upcoming Iron Man, “she wanted a Victoria’s Secret butt, like Gisele!” says her trainer Tracy Anderson.

25. Recently completed a five-day “live food” (raw and organic) fast from N.Y.C.’s Organic Avenue.

26. Katherine Heigl
Follows Harley Pasternak’s 5-Factor Diet, eating five small meals a day.

27. For exercise, works out with kettle balls twice a week.

28. Beyoncé Knowles
“She loves southern cooking,” says her rep, but when it’s time to trim down, “she packs up on the salads, grilled fish and chicken.”

29. David Beckham
“He is much more health conscious since moving to Los Angeles last year,” says a family friend. “He is training twice a day now.”

30. Kate Hudson
Favors salads for dinner and yogurt with honey for breakfast.

31. MARIO LOPEZ
“Break a sweat every day. I don’t feel like I’ve woken up if I don’t break a sweat first.”

32. Eats every three hours.

33. Has a cheat day once a week. “I eat a steady flow of tacos, ice cream and cookies.”

34. Curbs cravings with peanut butter. “It has some fat, and it’s tasty.”

35.”I like to keep my muscles guessing. I like to run, bike, dance when I can. A little yoga. And I swim when it’s nice out.”

Mariah Carey
36. Water aerobics “is actually three times more effective” than other workouts, she has said.

37. “I have my trainer move in with me—so I can’t sneak food!” she says.

41. Has a mid-morning snack (usually fruit) to keep up her energy.

EVA LARUE
50. “I’m into horse show jumping. It’s an awesome butt, thighs, inner legs workout. You can’t walk for days if you haven’t ridden in a while!”

ALI LANDRY
51. “Chocolate is not cheating! After a salty meal, you need a little bit of sweet. This is living, not cheating.”

CIARA
52. “When I’m in focus mode, I do training six times a week. Carbs only in the morning. And I try not to eat at least two hours before bed.”

EMILY VANCAMP
53. “You have to find a workout you love. I hate the gym, but I just took up pilates and it has changed my life.”

LINDSAY PRICE
54. “Running is the only thing that gets me out of my head. It’s meditative and it makes you pretty in shape.”

GRETCHEN WILSON

GINNIFER GOODWIN
57. “I don’t diet. There’s going to be barbecue and macaroni and cheese—but I’ll have broccoli and salad the next day.”

MELORA HARDIN
58. “I love restaurant pasta—the sauces. So now I ask for the sauce to take home and put it on whole wheat or rice pasta.”

Brave Beyonce Goes Skin Tight!

Beyonce has been in great shape lately, especially in that video about putting a ring on her finger. ‘If you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it’. You know the one. Pretty sure those lyrics are wrong too haha. I dont think many people could pull this off, Beyonce has stayed true to her curvy figure and hasn’t gone to drastic measures to become sickly thin for Hollywood.

Some people have critisized Beyonce for wearing this, leaving nasty comments on other blogs. If anybody leaves mean comments on this site I’m just going to delete them. Everybody is entitled to their opinion but when its putting down other people or saying regular sized women are fat then I’m going to just delete. I don’t want this website becoming proana!

This comment is from another blog and I think it sums up everything perfectly!

I was watching this performance this morning with my hubby and we both thought that she looked really good. I think she has a gorgeous, to-die-for figure. But then again, once you’re out of your teens and grow up a little, you start to realize how attractive it is to have curves and a little softness rather than being skinny or too muscular. Men LOVE Beyonce’s body. They drool over it. And I have to give her major props. I think she looks hot.

I didn’t find all of these myself. I didn’t find any of them in fact! This was taken from July’s Issue of Famous Magazine.

I’ll release 10 a day for 10 days! Because I’m too lazy to type them all up right now.

100. Nicollette Sheridan – Uses weights and ropes to perfect her pins. She says. "I’ve discovered this thing called Gyrotonic. It’s similar to pilates but it uses circular motion on a special pulley system. It really changes your body quickly."

99. Jennifer Lopez - Swears by drinking litres of water to suppress her appetite.

What are Beyonces Body Measurements?

I have been receiving some emails asking for Beyonces Measurements lately. I did a quick google search and this is what I came up with.

Beyonce’s Measurements are…

Height -5ft 6in
Weight -9st 9lb
BMI -23.1 – healthy

I’ll just add in that she has never confirmed these measurements, they are a rough guide. I am going to research Beyonce’s diet and exercise regime too!
