Skinny VS Curvy

Tyra Banks (who lost over 20 pounds in the past months) just started a new movement “Get Your Shape in Shape!” and she’s dedicating an entire show to it. OK Magazine reports:

Tyra announced she will be dedicating the entire hour to answering audience questions and providing step-by-step tips on her new, healthy lifestyle.

“This is not a diet, I do not believe in diets, I have been on diets in the past they are a bunch of bologna, this is a lifestyle change,” Tyra says to her audience. “It’s not about being skinny, it’s about getting in the best shape that you can be. This is a Tyra Show movement.”

“If I can do it and love to lay up and not work out and I love me some BBQ ribs and some ice cream and some Haagen Daaz, I can do this and you can do this and still eat what you want, just not every second,” adds Tyra in her pep talk. “It is time to get your shape in shape!”

Tyra said she is proud to have lost weight the healthy way while maintaining her “34DD boobies and her round booty.”

What do you guys think about this?

Posh girl Victoria Beckham is on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar (and inside, of course) and she explains that she works out every single day in order to stay in (skinny) shape. Why? Because:

‘I didn’t want to rely on retouching,’
‘I wanted to look at those pictures in 20 years’ time and say, “Wow, look – after three kids – I didn’t look bad.”’

… but works out 4 days / week. Here are the details from People:

Losing the baby weight is one thing – but keeping it off in preparation for the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is another for model mom Alessandra Ambrosio.

“Last year, because I had a baby and I had to lose pounds, I did a lot of cardio,” Ambrosio, 28, told PEOPLE at Thursday’s Los Premios MTV 2009 in Universal City, Calif. “This year is all about weights, squats and lunges.”

Ambrosio, a Victoria’s Secret model, gave birth to a baby girl, Anja Louise Ambrosio Mazur, in August 2008. Less than four months later, she hit the runway for Victoria’s Secret, showing off a stellar post-baby body.

“After I gave birth, my diet was a very healthy diet, like no sugar, no bread,” she says. “But now, I am just eating whatever.”

The solution? “I’m working out to prepare for the show because it’s our biggest show of the year,” she says. “I’m trying to work out four days a week.”

New mom Jennifer Hudson shares some of her tips on losing the baby weight (she gave birth in August this year):

“The trick is getting back into your old ways. If I could go around eating like I ate while I was pregnant, that’d be the way to go. But you have to snap back to it. It’s like an on and off switch, you have to go back to the norm.”

“I’m still working on it. I’m eating right, exercising, cutting sugar out of my diet. That’s pretty much it, and walking every day, making sure I do some kind of exercise.”

On Botox: “You can point any kind of laser at my face, but I don’t think Botox is for me. I think it is bad. People who have too much, they look like their faces are full of candles — a shiny, shiny face. Yes, festive. A holiday candle.”

On being vain: “I have the camera frame me from the waist up. Sometimes. If there is a shot that is bad, I can take it out. That is why L.A. is so bad, because they can take your picture from any side. That is why people in L.A. maintain 360 degree fitness. I don’t have that kind of time.”

On working out: “I like to delude myself that I’m in the old-Hollywood mode. I just tailor my clothes well and try to keep my skin clear. While it would be great to work out an hour a day, there is something inherently sort of selfish about it. I can’t do it.”

On her new hobby, shopping:  “I’ve been shopping. I am no longer the least stylish woman in the room.”

Life&Style has all the details:

Karina Smirnoff tells Life & Style. “The dancing is the diet, but everyone is different. So if celebrities really want to get the most out of the experience, they implement a healthy diet full of protein.”

KARINA PACKS HER DIET WITH FRUITS AND VEGGIES

Professional dancer Karina Smirnoff, 31, is a svelte 110 pounds, but even she has to tweak her diet to get into top TV shape. The 5-foot-5 dancer tells Life & Style she typically has egg whites with spinach and tomato for breakfast, fruit for lunch, and salad and fish for dinner. But her best diet advice? “Listen to your body,” she says. “There are foods that your system will digest easily and others it will struggle with. Of course, fruits and veggies are always good.”

KELLY FINALLY DROPS THE POUNDS

Fan favorite Kelly Osbourne, 24, says that after years of yoyo dieting, dancing has been the only healthy way she’s been able to lose weight. “I do five hours of rehearsals a day — sometimes even six,” she told Life & Style at the 7th Annual Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party on Sept. 26. The 5-foot-3 star lost 14 pounds in the first six weeks of rehearsals; since then, she’s lost even more inches. “My body is completely changing; I’m getting really small in places where I’ve never been that small before!” Kelly says. “Kelly has cut out late-night snacking,” an insider tells Life & Style. She also drinks six glasses of water a day.

MYA ADDS MUSCLE MASS

Mya, 30, has slimmed down — and toned up! “I lost 11 pounds in four weeks,” the 5-foot-5½ contestant told Life & Style at a Humane Society event in LA on Sept. 22. And the singer continues to keep off the weight with occasional twice-daily runs that speed up the metabolism. “My body has gotten more toned,” she told Life & Style at the beginning of rehearsal. “I’m seeing a lot more definition, especially in my arms.”

DEBI FILLS UP ON H2O

“I’ve lost 11 pounds, and I’ve noticed my body toning in weird areas,” Debi Mazar, 45, tells Life & Style. Thanks to five-day-a-week rehearsals — and in spite of a torn neck muscle — she even notes, “My bra bulge is gone!” The 5-foot-5 actress and cooking-show co-host keeps her energy up with homemade lunches of pasta, fruit and even chocolate, plus “tons of water.” Staying hydrated helps prevent fatigue so you can get through your workout.

The ‘Bounty’ actress amazed crew on the set of the new movie, which also stars Gerard Butler, by getting up at 5am and running laps around New Jersey’s Monmouth Park racecourse, which is near where she has been shooting on location.

A source said: “She showed up every morning at 5am to run laps on the giant oval for a solid hour before cameras rolled.

“She’s really disciplined about keeping fit. She’d get there before everyone else and zip around that huge track like a winner!”

The 40-year-old actress’ main exercise is running and she prefers it to other fitness routines because it keeps her thighs and calves toned.

This is not the first time details of Jennifer’s early morning exercise schedule have been revealed.

Earlier this year, it was claimed she was getting up at 3am to ensure she still had time to work out and stick to her hectic shooting schedule for ‘The Bounty’.

A source said at the time: “Jennifer has had a totally overhaul for this film. She wants to be seriously fit, yet remain curvy.

“There are a lot of early starts on set, so she has had to get up at 3am to get two hours in the gym before getting ready for filming.”
