Rebecca Romijn recently gave birth to twins! She already has a post baby body many of us spend months at the gym while living on egg whites for. It almost seems unfair.

Truth of the matter is that with the celebrity baby movement, comes new approaches to work outs, diets and of course…plastic surgery. Don’t be fooled by moms sporting flat as board and just is hard stomachs just weeks after giving birth. Mommy makeovers are becoming a high demand procedure. Liposuction and the removal of excess skin are just a few of the post-pregnancy plastic surgery procedures that many are opting for.

For those of us who prefer not to go under the knife, there is old fashioned diet and exercise. For weight loss and fat burning, cardio is key. At least 20 minutes 3 times a week is a minimum goal. Running, biking, swimming, aerobics even walking is start to good cardio. In addition to some ab focused work, you be on your way to your post baby body. Or back to that size 6 you have been dying to get into. So don’t expect miracles. Give yourself time and above all…don’t give up.

Hip Lift:
Lay on your back with your legs straight up in the air. Keep your back pressing into the floor and think about tightening a belt around your waist. Slowly pull your belly button to the floor and as you do so, feel your hips lifting gently off the floor as your legs are lifted. Do not lift with the legs, but instead with the abdominals. Repeat 10-15 times.

The Plank:
Facing the floor, get on your hands and knees, keeping your shoulders over your hands. Straighten out your body and keep your toes on the floor. You should be straight like a board with your abs pulling in tight. Breathe in and out naturally. Hold for up to one minute. Repeat 4-5 times.

The Bicycle:
Lye on your back with you knees bent. Slowly pull your upper body off the floor and support your head with your hands. Activate your abs by pulling your belly button to the floor and release any pelvic tilt. Take one shoulder and turn your torso to face your opposite knee. Go to the other side. Think of riding a bicycle as you turn slowly from side to side. Repeat for 20 repetitions.
