Holly Hagan In Workout Gear Shows Off Amazing 30-Pound Weight Loss

Holly Hagan’s postpartum fitness regimen has been anything but easy—but the Geordie Shore star was determined to shift the baby weight and gain strength. Hagan lost 30 pounds in six months, and showed the difference in side by side pictures of herself wearing the same blue leggings and a black crop top. “I knew exactly what I was capable of and would get to where I wanted to be I just needed some patience and consistency 🙏🏼 I’d love to say I didn’t let the comments about my postpartum body get to me, but after a video went viral with thousands of people telling me how awful and abnormal I looked, it was really hard to show up and do my job. People seriously questioned why on earth I wouldn’t just go and get more surgery to fix the way I looked… but I knew I didn’t need to, and could do it the safe and sustainable way,” she captioned the post. Here’s how Hagan is thriving nine months after having a baby.

1. Weight Training Workouts

Hagan lifts weights as part of her fitness routine—here’s a dumbbell workout she shared on her social media:

“Here’s a killer dumbbell EMOM [every minute on the minute] for you!

1 minute heavy sumo squats

1 minute dumbbell snatches

1 minute reverse lunge

1 minute burpee devil press

1 minute rest x 5 🥵.”

2. Ground Beef Recipe

Hagan shares recipes on her social media, including this one for cheesy ground beef:

“Cheesy BBQ mince 405 calories with 36g of protein 💪🏼

500g 5% beef mince [ground beef]

Rice 250g (cooked weight)

1 and a half peppers

Tin of kidney beans

40g reduced fat cheese

1 beef stock pod with 250ml water

1 onion

1 tablespoon of tomato purée

1 packet of seasoning or you can use alternative seasonings from your cupboard.”

3. Skincare Routine

Hagan’s skincare routine is tailored to her sensitive skin. “I’ve got a silicone ball-type-thing with little prongs which doesn’t harbor bacteria, so I use one of them, and then I use an Avène cleanser which was recommended by a doctor because I do have quite sensitive skin,” she told VICE. “But I use a baby wipe first – which isn’t the best I know – and then I use the cleanser, and then I tone with Pixi Glow Tonic, and then I will just use an Avène rich moisturizer. That’s pretty much it.

4. Postpartum Recovery

Hagan was careful about her postpartum workouts, making sure she didn’t cause herself any injuries. “Postpartum recovery is so important! Make sure you’re rehabilitating your deep core before jumping into your regular ab routines. They may cause more damage if you’re not careful! It’s unfortunate that the hospitals don’t provide some form of recovery plan for rehabilitation. Any other injury you’d be given exercises to do to regain the function but for some reason childbirth we leave with nothing. Oh and don’t forget your scar massage if you’ve had a section,” she captioned an Instagram post.

5. Evening Beauty Routine

Hagan’s nighttime beauty routine is focused on gentle cleansing to not aggravate her skin. “At night time, I will remove my make-up with Simple baby wipes, and then the same routine again, but maybe I’ll use a mask if my skin feels dry or it needs hydration because I have combination skin,” she told VICE. “It’s oily and dry, so I need to get the right balance which is really difficult. I have to be really careful because I come out in spots a lot and it can be a bit of a nightmare. So yes, a mask and then probably the same routine with the cleanser.”

Heather Rae El Moussa is opening up about her post-pregnancy workout. In a new social media post the Selling Sunset star shows off her amazing body-after-baby and reveals the program she followed to get back into shape the healthy way. “Let’s talk about my postpartum body….” she started the Instagram caption. Here is everything you need to know about how the reality star got her body back without going to extremes and training with Paulina Hefferan.

1. Her Postpartum Workout Journey “Wasn’t Easy”

Heather starts by explaining that her postpartum workout journey “definitely wasn’t ‘easy’ and didn’t go as expected,” she writes. “I thought I was going to bounce back within 9 weeks!! HUGE LOL but the reality of being a mom to a newborn, breastfeeding, 2 kids, balancing my hormones, my work, my marriage and my life set in.”

2. She Found a New Way to Workout at Home with Paulina Hefferan

She reveals that she “didn’t want to leave the house and leave Tristan to workout,” so she knew she needed to change the way she worked out and what fit for her “new” life. “It was hard guys, I felt weak, old & not super motivated. I had never been someone who lifted weights or did at-home workouts until I met @paulinastein. It was a complete change for me but I lost 25 pounds, leaned out & got my strength back while working out with Paulina.” She adds that the workouts are “accessible and affordable.”

3. She Lost 25 Pounds

“Believe it or not, you guys, I lost 25 pounds postpartum and I did it straight from my living room using two 10 pound dumbbells, a mat, sometimes some ankle weights, sometimes some bands,” she continues in the video.

4. Paulina Helped Her Feel “Really Comfortable”

“Transforming your body after a baby or any time in your life is not easy. It takes a lot of discipline. It takes a lot of structure. It takes someone pushing you Sometimes, especially if you're like me. After I had Tristan, I thought, okay, I'll be back at the gym. I'll be back in hot yoga. I'm going to get my body back in nine weeks. Reality set in, and that did not happen. I don't think I really started working out until I met Paulina. She made me just feel really comfortable. She made me feel like this is a slow journey. This is my journey. I don't need to compare myself to anyone else,” she says.

5. She Worked Out While Tristan Was Napping and Even with Him

She adds that she was able to get the exercises in, even with her baby, because Paulina is “also a mom,” and the fact that I can do it from my home, I can incorporate Tristan, I can do it while he's napping, made me say yes and made me feel like, you know what? I can do this. Working out with her changed my life. I am so proud of myself.”

6. Her Body Was “Back” After Four Months

“I started really noticing that, wow, my body is back around eight and a half months postpartum, and I had started working out with Paulina when I was about four and a half months postpartum. Now that she has this app on days, I can't work out with her when I'm traveling, I can use her app, could work alongside with her, so it really makes you want to do it because she's doing it with you,” she concludes.

7. Walking and Weight Lifting

On Paulina’s Instagram page, she reveals that “lifting weights” and “walking 8,000 to 10,000 steps per day” along with a healthy diet is the perfect equation for weight loss.

Carnie Wilson is showing off her weight loss. In a new social media post the former Wilson Phillips singer looks incredibly svelte. “Another before and ‘during’ ... my health journey! This is 40 pounds down. I feel really different,” she captioned the set of photos. How is she getting in shape? Here is everything you need to know about her weight loss journey.

1. She Is Dieting: No Gluten, Sugar, or Butter

“Knowing that I did this PURELY through diet - no gluten or sugar, no butter and keeping fats down too,” Wilson continues. “Lately I have indulged in cheese and nuts which have more fat. If I chose not to eat corn tortillas, nuts and cheese - there's no way I could keep this up.”

2. She Plans on “Exercising More”

Carnie revealed that up until now she hasn’t been working out very much. “I need to start exercising more to make the scale start to move again, but I'm so proud and pumped,” she writes in the caption.

3. It’s a “Miracle

“I have totally adjusted my eating habits to satisfy my cravings but in a realistic way. And it's a miracle,” she continues. “Hope this inspires someone.”

4. Subhead Goes Right Here

In February, Carnie elaborated on why she decided to embark on a weight loss journey. “My body started rejecting gluten and sugar ... and with my blood sugars at a six ... cholesterol at 225 I was not heading in a good direction,”she wrote on Instagram. “I had a pain in my tummy and had an ultrasound to be sure I had no gallstones. Luckily, I did not. I was too scared to give up the food that I thought was bringing me comfort.”

5. Her Weight Loss Journey Is “An Act of Self Love”

“I know there are many ways to lose weight quicker, but it comes down to calories in versus calories expended,” she continued. “For me, this was an act of self love ... knowing which food made me feel like shit and also knowing I can't eat it. The result has been weight loss, more energy, feeling more positive, hopeful, in control and confident. I'm not counting calories or going too cray cray with the scale.”

6. Her Goal Is 155 Pounds

She added that she planned to “reach a physical goal of 155 pounds.” “It's hard sometimes because Lord knows I wanna cram it in my mouth!!! I know how I will feel if I do though — and that's what stops me,” she said. “Thank you for such loving and encouraging words the last five months! It means so much to me!!!!”

Meghan revealed to Entertainment Tonight Canada that when she gave birth to her first son Riley, she was at her “heaviest” and it impacted her emotionally and physically. “I was my heaviest I've ever been, I was like over 200 pounds when I C-sectioned him out. I just wasn't feeling great”’ she said. “I've never had stitches, so to have this C-section scar, I was in a really dark place and I wanted to be in a great place for my son,” she added. To lose the weight, “I worked every day and challenged myself,” she continued. “I was like, ‘If I can survive a C-section, I can do anything!’ I was very dedicated, and I started seeing the pounds come off like one week at a time, one pound… I learned that I do like healthy food and I learned what portions mean. And I learned my brain is so happy when I exercise, so I’m just [feeling] better than ever.”

2. Her Son Motivates Her

Her biggest motivation to get into shape was her son. “I want to run and keep up with my kid. I want to be able to put on a bathing suit and run out there and not be in my head about it. And I want to climb up a treehouse with him,” she told PEOPLE. “I've lost all the baby weight and 10 extra lbs., so I'm just going to keep going and do this for my younger self.”

3. She Lost One Pound Per Week

Megan told PEOPLE that she had a slow and steady approach to weight loss. “I did it the healthy way, the long way, the one pound a week way. And it's a proud accomplishment that I never thought I could ever do,” she said.

4. She Works Out with a Person Trainer

Meghan has been working with Rebecca Stanton (@rebeccabroxfit) for years. The two do everything from simple strength and weight training to HIIT style workouts.

5. Her Husband Is Her Workout Buddy and Fitspiration

In 2018, Meghan told Entertainment Tonight that her husband, Daryl Sabara, is her workout buddy. “He really changed my life. He showed me how working out can be fun. I didn't believe it, but now it's true and it feels so good when you're sore -- I love that feeling now, I'm addicted to it,” she said. “He cooks for me and taught me to cook. I never knew how to cook. He taught me, like, secrets how to make your food taste great but also be healthy for you.”

6. She Eats Smaller Portions

Meghan maintains that it isn’t just what she eats – but how much of it – that is crucial to weight loss. “I learned what portions mean. I was very dedicated and I started seeing the pounds come off like one week at a time,” she said.

Model and former Playboy star Holly Madison is embracing a balanced approach to health and fitness. Recently, she posted a playful selfie from the gym on Instagram, captioned, “Proof I worked out.” Madison’s journey to wellness has been shaped by self-compassion and a focus on long-term goals rather than quick fixes. After her second child, she prioritized her mental health over immediate weight loss, sharing on Instagram, “Losing weight just wasn’t my first priority after having a baby.” With the guidance of a nutritionist and a love for healthy foods like salmon, Madison has gradually built a sustainable routine. She hopes to inspire other moms by showing that achieving goals takes time—and that’s okay.

1. She Didn’t Focus On Losing Weight

After having her second child, Madison opened up about her weight loss process in this Instagram post. Madison revealed that she took some time to just focus on herself, and not worry about her weight. “Yeah, I’m excited that I finally reached my goal weight, but I also wanted to point out that it took me four years to get here. Losing weight just wasn’t my first priority after having a baby, sorry ‘bout it. I had an easy time losing the weight after my first pregnancy, but after the second one, the extra pounds were just hanging on. I was working on a novel and I was terrified that if I went on a diet I would be hungry, cranky, lightheaded and unable to concentrate.”

2. She Worked With A Nutritionist

In the previous Instagram post’s caption, Madison revealed that she decided to work with a nutritionist to help her lose weight. “I tried to lose weight just by working out and moderately watching what I eat at first, but even though I was doing really challenging workouts almost every day, nothing was budging. It wasn’t until I finally went to a nutritionist a year ago that I started making any progress. I had to know what foods worked with my metabolism before a diet became effective. Only recently was I able to incorporate both a diet and exercise into my day. For a while, it was a struggle because it seemed I only had time for one: workout OR make sure I had all the foods I need to stick to my diet.”

3. She Wants To Inspire Others

Madison also revealed in the previous post’s caption that she decided to share her journey to inspire other moms who might be in the same situation. “I just wanted to share that as kind of a disclaimer to this picture because I know there are so many moms out there who feel bad because they don’t always lose the weight quickly. The same methods don’t necessarily work for everyone. Just remember, if you haven’t made it to your physical goal yet, it’s because you’re a boss with a million things going on and you are probably killing it more than you think you are. ❤️”

4. She Loves Salmon

In this video on her YouTube channel, Madison shared what she typically eats in a day. For dinner, she ordered a salmon dish from a local restaurant. The Mayo Clinic says that salmon has a lot of benefits. “Salmon is probably best known for its omega-3 fatty acids. Called EPA and DHA, these fats may support heart health, brain function and healthy joints. Most Americans could add more seafood to their diets, and salmon is a good choice. Salmon can be used fresh or canned. If you buy canned salmon, get it packed in spring water instead of oil.”

5. She Has A Better Body Image

Madison opened up about overcoming unhealthy eating habits and body image in her book, The Vegas Diaries. "I felt like I had let myself down. After finally regaining control of my own life and achieving all my goals, how was it that I couldn't even control my own body? It wasn't until I got pregnant with my first baby a little over three years ago that I really started to get into nutrition and eating healthier."
