Trista Sutter: post baby weight loss
Trista Sutter, the former Bachelor and Bachelorette reality TV star, is on a mission to lose her post-baby weight. She recently gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Max, one month early by C-section due to pregnancy complications. Her pregnancy was a rough one, with Trista not only developing gestational diabetes, but also HELLP syndrome, a serious complication of preeclampsia (hypertension associated with protein in the urine) marked by elevated liver enzymes, low red blood cells and platelets. Both Trista and baby are doing fine now. The 5 foot 2 mom, lost 22 lbs so far and currently wears a size 4 and weighs 116 lbs. Her goal is to drop another 10 and get back in her skinny jeans!
Trista’s Workout Plan
Since she had a C-section, Trista had to wait 6 weeks before she could start working out. Her workouts now consist of Power lifting exercises and Pilates.
Warm up. A 5 minutes on the treadmill at 3 mph and an incline of 5
Circuit Training. 3 sets, 12 reps of the following 3 exercises.
1. Squats on a stability ball with overhead arm extensions
2. Walking dumbbell lunges and hamstring curls on an exercise ball
3. Fast walks on treadmill for 1 minute
Abs. 3 sets of 12-15 reps of midsection moves (crunches on a stability disc or lower-ab pelvis rolls) with one minute on a treadmill.
Trista’s Diet
It’s a 2100 calorie-a-day diet, spread over 6 meals per day
Breakfast- whole grain and flax toast, with jam and 1/2 cup mixed berries
Snack – French Vanilla Crisp Pria Bar
Lunch – Turkey sandwich with cheese on whole grain bread with an apple and 1/2 tablespoon peanut butter
Snack – Berry Shake
Dinner – Veggie lasagna made with skim milk ricotta and mozzarella cheese, and a salad with 1 tbsp balsamic vinaigrette
Snack – Rice Krispies Treat
Trista is doing great. Since she’s breast feeding the higher calorie intake makes sense. Looking over her diet, she could stand to cut out the refined sugar. Case in point, the Rice Krispie treats are a no-no in my book. The high sugar content will fuel cravings by causing her blood sugar to spike and plummet. It will also lead to a pro-inflammatory state which is something she is just recovering from, given that she had gestational diabetes and preeclampsia.
Her fitness routine has got a good mix of stability work which will help recruit new muscle fibers helping prevent what I call muscle toning fade. This is where you don’t mix up your routines causing your body to “adapt” so you don’t get the same benefit with subsequent sessions. Mixing up your routines with stability work will help prevent this. She’s also got a variant of interval training which is going to help rev up her fat burning metabolism.
Trista will be back in her skinny jeans for sure!

in a normal world she is a skinny person at 116 lbs, but we arent talking normal here. she should be able to drop those 10 lbs fast. especially with the breast feeding.

“Weight Loss”, “Diet”….?!…What year is this?!
These terms may still be chique in celeb circles and used in the general public but me thinks they be a bit obsolete in this day and age and somewhat misleading.
I have for years now re-directed my clients to use the terms such as “Fat Loss”, “Body Shaping”, “Proper Nutrition”, (i.e., the New Food Pyramid), “Regular Exercise/Fitness”.
It is a difference between “figthing a battle” and changing lifestyle habits, or as I say, learning to “Live Fit, Trim, Healthy…Live It For Real…Live It For Life!”
All the Best,

No that’s not a typo… she is a nursing mom
Your body burns about 600 – 800 extra calories a day when you are nursing so this is equivalent to eating 1300 – 1500 calories a day not nursingLike or Dislike:

I have the US weekly article where she gives her exact diet and workout routine and THIS is NOT it, there was no stability ball – no PILLS mentioned AT ALL. She did eat 6 times a day, but the workout was all about squats, plank position, ab curls with a yoga ball, chair lifts . . . if you’re going to post information, why not just reference the original article and make it accurate??
