JAIME KING Doesn’t Believe In Dieting

Last week we were all admiring Jamie King’s toned tummy only six months after welcoming baby James. RELATED: Jaime King enjoys pool time with baby James. She posted this pic of a family hike. ANYONE would be envious of those abs, even women who haven’t given birth! Jaime shared her get fit secrets recently. Are you ready to hear it?

Jaime told People:

I don’t diet anymore. I don’t believe in the word. I have had so many negative connotations, especially growing up in the industry where you feel you have to look a particular way.
“About four years ago my thyroid had an imbalance. I was getting very upset because I gained weight and I couldn’t lose it. I realized I had a negative connotation with it like, ‘I’m doing all this exercise and eating healthy and nothing is changing.’
“I took supplements and it helped the thyroid. But for me it’s about honoring our bodies and respecting them rather than judging them. I didn’t have the body I wanted until I let go of the idea that I have to be a certain way. When I stopped dieting my body really changed. I started eating for nutrition and I started exercising because it made me feel good.
“I go hiking with my husband and my son. I just like the bonding time that we have when we do that.
“I apply all the tricks I learn from Mary Helen Bower‘s Ballet Beautiful DVDs, which I also do. When I am pushing the stroller and going on walks it’s like doing Pilates at the same time because you are really using your core and your arms. I just try and be focused when I am doing it.”

No dieting, just taking care of herself and honoring her body. I’d say Jaime’s strategy works, judging from how amazing she looks!
