When it comes to celebrity mothers, it is quite natural to assume that they have it easy. A glam team at every beck and call accompanied with dazzling good looks, all they need is a quick touch-up to get through the day.
But, what about the stubborn pregnancy weight that refuses to leave a new mom?
Since, we all look up to them, celebrities are an inspiration when it comes to becoming a fitter version of ourselves. It stands true in the case of celebrity mums as well. They believe that no matter how one looks, it is certainly healthier if you are in a good shape. Contrary to popular belief, it is indeed possible to lose weight after having your baby, and maintaining the same as well.
Bollywood divas are changing the age-old idea that motherhood meant the end of an actress’s career. With stunning post-pregnancy physiques, they are giving most young models a run for their money.
So, let us talk about some celebrity mothers who are giving us the new #MomGoals.
1. Kareena Kapoor

Kareena has always made headlines, whether it’s for her revolutionary zero-size figure or proudly flaunting her baby-bump. She has always been an advocate for health and it just goes to show the undying love she has for her body. Post pregnancy as well, she embraced a brand new workout regime to get back in shape. A blend of intense yoga, pilates, as well as aerial twists was her weapon in this battle (1). She devoted at least one to two hours everyday to reach her desired weight goal.
2. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

If there is one fitness mantra that the former Miss World follows, is never to skip breakfast. In order to revive her metabolism, she begins her daily routine with a glass of warm water including a dash of lemon and honey in it. As far as exercises are concerned, Aishwarya prefers power yoga over spending hours in the gym. Though she embraced her post pregnancy look, but once she resorted to transforming, she did a remarkable job, which shows, in her Cannes red carpet look. Her diet included some super clean stuff like vegetables, fruits, grilled fish, brown rice and greens.
3. Malaika Arora Khan

Malaika Arora Khan has always been at the prime of her fitness. The mother of two has forever been gorgeous, and her secret is being a pilates junkie (2). Along with that, she follows a blend of cardio, weight training, yoga in addition to a controlled diet. She promotes working out as a part of life, and implements the same in her family too. We can get the idea from her regular fitness posts on Instagram.
4. Shilpa Shetty Kundra

Shilpa has always been an avid yoga practitioner. She even started “Shilpa’s Yoga” DVDs to share the correct ways to do the asanas along with the benefits they entail. Shilpa urges mothers to make themselves a priority instead of getting consumed with the entire process of bringing up the baby. She performs pranayama, meditation, and yoga for two days; weight training for two and keeps one day for cardiovascular exercises. Shilpa favours healthy nourishments in order to keep herself physically and mentally fit and finishes her supper by 8pm.
Celebrity mums are impeccable inspirations for having confidence in their body-image and embracing the world of motherhood. We hope these secrets will inspire all mums out there to love their bodies and make health a priority.
