How Carrie Underwood Keeps Off the Weight

Carrie Underwood is already underway with her 2012 tour and her body shows all her hard work. In 2005 when she won American Idol she had a noticeable amount of weight on her. She was hardly fat, but her figure now sports a healthier body of work. When I think of Carrie Underwood I think of her amazing voice but there is one other thing that comes to mind. Her amazingly toned legs. Google her and you will find hundreds of pictures of her transformed figure and stunningly cut legs. I personally save such pictures to my iPhone and look at them often for inspiration. Whenever I try to talk myself out of working out I click on the pics and jump off the couch. Since 2005 she has kept off the 20 pounds she shed for over 7 years. Carrie is a huge animal lover and advocate. That being said, she follows a vegetarian diet. When you are a vegetarian it's hard to get your alloted amount of protein since you are not eating chicken or meat. Carrie replaces that with soy based sausages and Kashi bars. Let's not forget that tofu is a huge staple in a vegetarian diet. You can almost cook it with anything and it's high in protein. She also is consistent about writing down everything she eats especially when on the road. This allows her to hold herself accountable. It's also a good resource to look back on at the end of the week to figure out why you are or are not hitting your weight loss goals. Like most celebrities, Carrie works out with a personal trainer and focuses a lot of course on her gams. She performs a ton of lunges, sideways lunges, squats, traveling lunges and reverse lunges. She performs cardio exercises everyday whether at a local gym or on her treadmill at home. Carrie feels like it makes her happier throughout the day if she gets in a good cardio session in the morning. A lot of women would feel surprised to hear that Carrie suffers from the same problem they do. She says "When I gain weight, it's in the spare-tire area, "I've told fitness 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." http://www.howcelebritiesloseweight.com/celebrity-diet-workout-and-weight-loss-tips-from-carrie-underwood/
