Nothing is more frustrating than watching celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Lopez losing the baby fat without losing their minds. Obviously it can be difficult to see their seemingly effortless success and we often assume it's because they have a million dollars to drop on the latest magical diet pill. The truth is that the movie mommies who want to burn the baby fat in a healthy way rely on two things: a personal trainer and a nutritionist. Clearly you don't have to have tons of cash to lose tons of weight.



Personal Trainers:

Film 'femme fatals' are often encouraged in losing the baby fat faster than most new moms. Personal trainers know this, so they try and boost their famous clientele's metabolism right away with interval cardio training. Well-paced jogs that are fueled with quick sprints increase your endurance and strengthen your heart.

With free weights you are sculpting the flabby arms with the overhead press and bicep and tricep curls. Plus when you're done exercising your body will be rebuilding and repairing your muscles, burning more calories for you all day.

The name of the fat burning fitness game is resistance training. By applying a force of resistance using tools such as your own body weight on an exercise ball to do crunches, this allows you to utilize several muscle groups to strenghten and tone your muscles. Because muscle burns fat, the more muscles you engage, the more fat you will burn.

Too much of a good thing can harm you and the same applies to cardio. Losing the baby fat will require you to give your heart a good workout with some interval cardio workouts. These workouts are designed to elevate your hear rate and keep the muscles challenged by varying your exercise "intensity" from high to low. Doing interval cardio for 30 minutes will burn more calories for a longer duration than running at the same pace for an hour.

Personal Chef:

You don't have to have hired help to keep up with well-planned meals. Eating gourmet won't help you losing the baby fat; instead you should be scheduling six small meals a day. Nothing full of fat filled sauces either, just some healthy lean meats or crunchy salads. Go for the good proteins and whole grains or even fruit smoothies.

When trying to lose the baby fat remember you are what you eat. You wouldn't see a sexy starlet eating a Big Mac if they are trying to lose weight after giving birth. Keeping things fresh with fruit filled smoothies and lean meats can help trim your tummy. Nutritionists will always tell you to not 'cut' out any of your food groups - even the carbohydrates! Instead you should eat everything in moderation by including whole grains with your proteins and some natural sugar like honey with your oatmeal.

You don't have to have buckets of bucks or a herd of paparazzi following you to lose the baby fat. Just planning out your week both with exercise and food will free up your time to spend with baby and family. Celebrity starlet success isn't because of the green they spend but the green they eat. Trim your tummy like a star by being on top of your health plan!
