Jessica Alba’s Diet and Workout
In this recent shoot for GQ, Jessica Alba appears to be in top form as she gears up for the filming of Sin City 2 this summer. Her diet secret is “portion control” says her trainer in the latest issue of In Touch weekly, and “she knows how to keep her eating habits under control.” “She likes to have dinner out, but will only eat half of the food on the plate.”
In addition to a balanced diet, Jessica also watches her carbs, leaving bread and desserts off the menu. But she doesn’t deprive herself when she gets a particular craving “You need to indulge and have that chocolate cake whenever you feel the need.”
Jessica Alba’s Diet Plan
It’s a South Beach style diet, with lean meats, whole grains, low-fat cheeses, fruits and veggies.
- Breakfast
1 cup oatmeal with berries with 3-4 scrambled egg whites when working on the film set.
- Lunch
Salad with 170 gms (6 ounces) of chicken breast or fish (salmon, tuna)
- Dinner
Sashimi or or 170 gms (6 ounces) of petit filet of beef or other lean protein with unlimited veggies and 3 small red potatoes
- Snacks
handful of almonds or hot air popped popcorn
Jessica Alba’s Work Out
Jessica’s is big on exercise with lots of cardio on the elliptical, stationary bike or treadmill for 30 minutes four times a week. She adds resistant-training including weights and yoga to tone up for her action roles in films.

I just had my third child 9 weeks ago, and my husband is coming home from Iraq in 6 weeks.. I gained 45 lbs with each child, and so far this time I’ve lost 30. What can I do to guarantee that I’ll be back to my normal 5′6″ 125 lbs by the time he gets back (I have 15 lbs to go)? Help!
jessica alba is hot, but i think she is getting TOO skinny and is beginning to lose her shapeliness.
She looks great, love this plan,i’ve lost plenty thank-you
She looks cool, not too skinny, I have lost lots! Thanx!,

Totally Agree ‘ jasmine’ her legs are fine!! not fat at all.. I love this woman and think she looks great! she’s a perfect role model
who can help me tolking in english?
OK. I never come on this site, but I decided to sneak a peak and read some of the answers. “Me” I hate to sound harsh, but it’s comments like those that just make me sick. There is not one once of fat on that woman’s body. She DOES not need to “make more exercise”. She works out hard enough and she looks phenomonal, in my opinion. Please think before you make comments like those.

she is amazing looking. perfect. her body is sick!!! she’s thin, but she’s toned. She works very hard for her body, you can tell! And it pays off!
how can u say her legs r fat ?? If anything, they are too THIN … I think u need ur eyes tested ‘me’ .. youve got a serious problem.. or ur just jelous u dnt look that good haha
I agree sammi, there is no way on earth she is anywhere near fat, she is toned,skinny but nowhere near the word fat.. she has at least 3stone 2put on b4 she can b called that lol
I think the same way. She’s great and she’s everything but not fat! Never! I think she lost a lot of weight ….
HOT.. im soooooo jealous!
she’s so hot/pretty/gorgeous/cute/sexy
It seems like it’s easy to follow, but when it comes right down to it, you can’t eat carbs! I wish I had HER self control.
Eli- I agree with you that there is self-control involved. HOWEVER, I am going to have to disagree with NOT eating any carbs. Bottom line-it’s calories in, calories out. If you take in more than you burn off, you gain weight. Iif you burn off more than you take in, you lose weight. Period. Doesn’t matter if the energy comes from carbs or protein. Of course, the sources are important (whole wheat vs. white). You do have to watch your PORTIONS of carbs, since they are calorie dense (smaller portions contain greater calories). Also, GOOD carbs are needed-whole grains, wheat, fruit, veggies. Without those, you aren’t going to get very far energy wise and you will end up bingeing at some point and gaining back the weight. Plus, not enough carbs you get constipated…eeew. No fun. Sorry, totally not trying to sound like a know it all or a bitch, I just hate to see people get false information and then struggle with their food intake. But I do agree that this chic has a phenominal bod
Wow, I really feel like I learned something from the information you gave me. Sometimes I just need to be reminded! Thank you! =)
the reason why she has a good body is because its rare- she has very small hips, shes very straight down. she would probably have smaller hips than a skinny catwalk model, but her legs or arms arent skinny. thats why you see all those pictures of her when shes completely tiny, but her legs and arms look okay. when she puts on weight, it goes to her arms and legs, never to her hips. i would love to be like that, but me weight always goes to my hips, and i have skinny arms and legs! thats why she is so popular, because her body is so rare. i think she is very amazing though. why is everyone so critical of her though? shes probably three times better looking than you!
I lov jessica alba and Iwant fuk his
OOh “Sina” thats a very…strange comment. Anywho; I WANT THIS BODY. Although I know I may never have it because of genetics, doesn’t mean I can’t want it. Anybody help me with this situation. I’m tall, curvy. No not fat…I just have an hourglass shape;which I dont really like.Anyways…All of my fat seems to go to my stomach,I’m fine with my legs other than they’re not toned. Anybody help me with getting a more toned body & a flatter stomach?

Do you honour your mother with sex and filth
She used to be hot, but now she gotten to skinny/anorectic. She looked the best in into the blue.
in my opinion sexiest woman alive but i think she needs to put on a few more pounds, she’s becomin too thin
the only reason her legs may look sort of strange to you in this picture ‘Me’ is because of the way she is standing. If she was striking any other pose you’d see how toned and thin her legs and thighs are. Any girl who stands that way it gives an illusion that she has bigger thighs than she does
why are you saying that zac is young ?…… he might be young but he is cute…. and u too
I think Jessica Alba is a perfectly rounded girl!! She’s smart, beautiful, classy, and she sets a good role model for everyone. Ever since the movie “Honey” came out, I started really looking up to JA. She has been my fav. model/actress for a long time..and I hope to one day be able to meet her!!
Jessica Alba is the picture of what ever girl wants to be like. Unfortunatly, some of us are not built that way. It is very sad to not see enough “regular” looking females on the cover of magazines. It is brainwashing both men and women that Jessica Alba is what a woman is supposed to look like. DO NOT GET ME WRONG, She is incredibly fortunate and has a beautiful body (all though, I would say it would be advisable for the health of her new child that she not get any thinner). I just really hate that in looking at pictures of her, I hate myself more insted of praise my self for working out just as much as she does, and having a socially acceptable diet (when taking income, and casuality, as well as lack of a personal dietitian/cook in to account) and I look absolutly nothing like that. I probably never will, Id love to…but it is what it is….we are all just bodies that rot when we die anyway and somewhere…she is bound to have some sort of ugly, annoying flaw and we just never see it.
Seriously…why so much criticism over her body? I mean, I found this site to try to eat like she does, to try to have a body more like hers…why else would you come to this site?
Can’t wait to see how she loses all the pregnancy weight… hahaha. This bitch is in denial of having an eating disorder. Once anorexic, always anorexic. Besides, she looks just as thin as she did in her Dark Angel anorexic days! She says she has curves… where? This bitch needs help.
i have this body! not nearly as nice per se, but the same no hips, straight up and down, if i gain weight its my arms and legs and shoulders! it takes ALOT of work to make it look even remotely as good a Jessica Alba’s so i think she must have a bit of an eating disorder…or never drink beer!
I think her hips are a little F A T. That’s just in my very own opinion.
Hey but she is still very very beautiful! keep being beautiful Jessi! #1 fan
Jessica has plenty of natural beauty, AND she works out on top of it. You have to work to “stay” looking your best. Another point.. She’s probably one of the most photographed women in the Country! There’s bound to be some pictures more “flattering” than others. That’s true with anyone.
Hey “Vioshia”- I understand you have EVERY right to make that statement about Jessica Alba, but I have every right to say-I think your insane! I really just don’t understand how someone as svlete and in-shape as Jessica can have “FAT” hips. She’s a size 3/4! What goes through your mind when you see other girls with more meat on their bones? In your opinion, does a girl have to be a size zero, if not smaller, to be acceptable? When a girl hits puberty, she develops a body-which includes hips! Like it or not, it happens! And I hate to break to ya, but Jessica Alba’s hips are not fat–that’s what a woman looks like! She is probably the slimmest girl in Hollywood-and she is beautiful. And I’m sorry but it is people like you who make girls, like me, feel insecure about their body. If J.A’s body isn’t good enough for ppl. then there sure as hell isn’t hope for the rest of us. I assume you are insecure or jealous and saying her hips are fat makes you feel better about your own body.
Jessica Alba cannot be a size 3 or 4… she has to be a 1 or 2. She’s so skinny!
hey all…….Dont you know that her family is FAT.
She has GOT to have some sort of E.D…she is not supossed to be that skinny. She doesn’t have the body type for it. She can’t lose the weight in her legs, which is why it’s very rare you see her in a mini skirt or dress. And she usually wears tights.
She works HARD to get that body. VERY hard. and she has the motivation and self discipline to have that body. she is extremely will-powered.
look…. Elizabeth… you obviously need some help, because Jessica Alba is gorgeous…. and skinny… and im sure shes got more curves than u… so watch yourself.
SHES NOT FAT…AND SHES NOT ANEREXIC….OK… SO SHUT UP ALL YOU FREAKS WHO THINK THAT…AND SHE DOES HAVE CURVES AND HER HIPS/LEGS ARE NOT FAT =] so… yea…. all you people who think that.. u probably wanna look in the mirror =]… love ya… byeee
“Liza”, Jessica Alba actually is a size 3/4. Jasmine’s right. Its in a couple of her interviews. That’s pretty skinny plus shes 5′6″ so it makes her seem slimmer because shes got a longer torso. you know?
I like how she’s able to maintain a great body when she comes from an overweight family.
yoo “me” or whoever u r she aint fat at all. its called being in shape i guess your taste is bony?
pplz jessica alba is hot she works hard for her body nd yh
if ur jealous den start working hard for ur body nd ull acheive like her hehehehehehe nyways ciao
I think jessica is just above the point of being to think. She is as skinng as she could be without losing all he shape
ther girl looks great im not denying that but clearly she diest a bit much and i dnt believe for a second that she ever eats chocolate cake!!
She used to be anorexic and i think she may still have some of those anaorexic type thoughts of calories restricting.
If she had a few more pounds on her she would look AMAZING!
she does look good now though but remember the camera actully ADDS pounds, about 10 to be exact so think how small this chick is in real life!!
I DON’T GIVE A DAMN WAT THEY SAY
JESSICA IS NOT GETTING TO SKINNY SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL SUCCESSFUL WOMAN
i think jess looks perfect and beautiful. shes a great role model. her body isnt too fat or too skinny. she has such a rock hard body!! hopefully if i keep working on it, maybe one day i will be too.
umm actually jessica was anorexic but even though she was she still looks after her body, nd yh there are ppl hu eat junk but keep it in small amounts, then that way they keep there body in shape with exercising.pplz u can do the same !!!
she is acutually skinny, but she looks great,
i eat about 5-800 calories a day and am having a hard time loosing my “small-pooch”, i don’t really understand it, i workout like 1 hour with cardio, and one on weights, sure my bod is much better, i just haven’t gotten rid of the last stubborn pounds
HELP!
Well sam, I have to say eating 5-800 calories a day is insane! That’s not healthy. Jess doesent starve herself to look like that and almost everyone in her family is overweight (genes play no role), so if you wanted to look like her you need to eat more, girl! If you’re not eating enough calories, your body doesent get enough nutrients or proteins it needs to build lean, sexy muscle. I recommend 1200-1250 at the LEAST. It’s not about dieting, start living a healthy lifestyle, with whole grains, lean meats, loads of fruits and veggies and lots of water! (Drink lots of water per day! It’s helps with fat loss and flushes your body of toxins) With a healthy diet and cardio/weight training program, your abs will look hot in no time! =)) Hope I helped!
