As much as I hate to admit it, Eva Longoria Parker definitely has it going on. There is just something about her I don’t like, but that’s neither here nor there. Her body looks amazing for her age (32), and you’d be surprised what keeps it that way. According to Shape Magazine, Eva eats a hearty, protein-packed breakfast and indulges in treats like chocolate chip cookies and pizza once or twice a week.

Read what she had to say about her cravings:

“I know my body craves what it needs, and sometimes it needs pizza!”

So wait a minute, she eats all of that and still looks like a FitCeleb? I knew there was something about her I didn’t like! Just kidding!

I want to start this post off by saying - I absolutely LOVE Jessica Simpson’s body; she is curvy and toned in all the right places. Jessica and her beau Tony Romo recently enjoyed yet another romantic dinner together. (Oh, how I miss the excitement of the “courting stage”, now my husband and I usually eat dinner on the snack trays and pass out while watching TV.) *Anyway….. sad sigh noise* I’m sure that Jessica ate a healthy low-fat, low-carb, protein rich dinner, filled with “good fats”, which she probably washed down with a sugar free beverage.

How do I “know” this? Since Jessica follows Harley Pasternak’s 5-Factor Diet, all of her meals must have those five core components. To see a sample of a typical diet day for Jessica……

Cameron Diaz is another FitCeleb who looks smokin for 35. Hollywood must have a lot of pressue to be thin, because I don’t know how they all do it. Cameron works out five days a week AND at the gym, doing 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes of light weights and mat Pilates. Whew! That seems like a workout just by typing it!

Cameron talks about what’s really important:

“We’re all struggling. You have to love what you’ve got and make the best of it. This is the only vessel that’s ever going to carry you.”

That’s a good way to put it!

Mom-to-be, Nicole Kidman, was recently seen leaving her gym, Montana Avenue’s Revolution Fitness, in Santa Monica. This 40 year old actress follows a pretty strict workout regiment, even with her growing bump. Nicole works out an impressive five times a week. Her exercise program includes yoga, cycling, and a training session at the gym. Here is a interesting description of Nicole’s spinning workout:

“Nicole took a class from teacher Bobby Neely on Sunday, sporting a white T-shirt, black leggings and, of course, her baby bump. Kidman sat on a bike next to her personal trainer and rode to a soundtrack including songs by Mary J. Blige, Bon Jovi and everybody’s favorite ’80s icons, Culture Club. But Kidman seemed especially tickled by a Keith Urban song” - a fellow gym-goer, People.com

Take a look at the picture of Nicole leaving her gym - she looks exhausted. Do you think Nicole’s 2 hour/5 day per week workout schedule is a bit much, or am I just a bitter lazy “prego”? Click here to read more or post a comment.
