How Jennifer Hudson Lost Weight
Jennifer Hudson topped 170 pounds in 2004. Now, after losing 30 pounds in nine months, she’s at 140 pounds. “There’s something wrong when you’re just skin and bones,” she says. Hmm, sounds like someone we know…
After a whirlwind awards season, Jennifer Hudson is back to her five-days-a-week workout regimen with trainer Lafonza Alston of Mainframe Fitness in Chicago.
“When she can, she will do a cardio workout in the morning (at 4 or 5 a.m.!), and resistance training in the evening,” says Alston. He also has Jennifer doing calorie-blasting football drills, running track and strength-training exercises like squats, push-ups and crunches.
“There’s no shortcut – you have to work for it. I’m a firm believer in that,” says Hudson. Jennifer’s also learned a new way of eating from Alston.
“He said every portion of food I eat should be no bigger than my hand,” says the singer, who eats protein, carbs and fiber (such as grilled chicken, potatoes and broccoli) with every meal, and snacks on trail mix to fight off sweet cravings. [via]
