Posted on 15. Oct, 2009 by admin in Celebrity Diets
Reality star sweethearts Ryan and Trista Sutter have two children. Max was born in 2007 but when their daughter Blakesley arrived in April Trista found herself with 43 pounds left to lose. In the past six months she has whipped herself into shape and the petite 5′2″ mom now weighs 107 pounds. This week, Trista gave five diet tips to the readers of People Magazine, in particular, tips for moms who have had multiple pregnancies.
1. Push the stroller. Trista started out with 45 minutes a day. She said,
“My double-stroller plus the two kids is about 70 pounds, so pushing that uphill is pretty hard.”
2. Turn the house into a gym. Trista and her trainer found household objects such as paint canes, crates and ski poles that she would use as weights. While the kids were napping she could get a workout in without having to go to a gym.
3. Keep track of calories. Trista uses mycalorienumber.com
4. Eat your protein. Lower your carb intake and crank up the protein. For example, you can still indulge in a cheeseburger but don’t eat the bun.
5. Remember that supplements are just supplements. The reality star admits to using them but doesn’t see them as the answer. She said,
“I’ve always believed there is no quick fix. A lot of people ask about it and say, ‘Oh, I’ve been taking them for a month and it hasn’t been doing anything,’ and I say, ‘Have you been working out?’ Because it has to be used in conjunction with working out if you are expending energy.”
