Mom Star Jaime Pressly Shares Swimsuit Photo “This Is 46”

1. Parks and Recreation

Pressly enjoys outdoorsy pursuits. “Balboa Park needs to be spoken of,” she says. “Aside from the fact it has great golf courses, one of the playground areas cost like $3 million, there’s the little lake, you can do the paddle boats, and you can fish, there’s tons of birds. That’s my favorite park, for sure… I grew up on a boat in North Carolina, the real Dawson’s Creek. So I grew up fishing. I do it when I go home.”

2. Postpartum Fitness

Pressly struggled with her postpartum physique. “I am someone who’s always enjoyed working out and being athletic,” she says. “Not everyone enjoys the same type of physical activities. The important thing to remember is simply to make sure you are being physically active in whatever way makes you feel good and makes you sweat and breathe. Not even, I, Miss Workoutaholic, wanted to step foot in a gym, after giving birth. I felt lazy, exhausted, depressed, fat, totally unsexy, and all together a mess. So know that you are normal if that’s what you’re feeling.”

3. Sanity Not Vanity

Pressly motivates herself to exercise by focusing on how it makes her feel. “The saying or motto that I came up with to try and help motivate me while losing the 42 pounds I gained during pregnancy is: I workout for my sanity NOT my vanity,” she says. “Think about it for a second and let those words resonate. Exercising and sweating out all those toxins is the best way to conquer all the issues you go through after giving birth and will continue to keep you healthy, happy, and strong throughout motherhood. Exercise gives you energy, stamina, focus, and time to breathe. Taking even 20 minutes for yourself a day will give you the time to yourself that you need to help keep you going strong.”

Pressly loves the Los Angeles nightlife, but isn’t interested in clubs. “I think our restaurants are so much better than they used to be, and I think there’s a better nightlife now than there used to be,” she says. “Of course I’m older now, and I couldn’t care less to go to a club. The Hollywood Bowl is one of the most amazing experiences anybody could have—going to see Adele, being able to bring your own wine and cheese and sit with friends. And the Ford Amphitheatre, that’s cool.”

5. Self-Care For Mom

Pressly reiterates how important it is to make time for self-care after having kids. “Balance or actually finding balance is one of the most difficult parts of all the change that happens when you become a mom,” she says. “Just know that you’re still allowed to take time for yourself, you are only human, you can do it (whatever IT is) and your fears are just Fake Evidence Appearing Real. So whether it’s getting back in the gym, doing yoga, or simply locking yourself in your room and dancing to loud music all by yourself, JUST DO IT! Get out there and sweat, ladies! I promise, if you focus more on how you feel inside, your body will react quicker on the outside.”

Demi Moore, at 58, is as body confident as ever, posing in a swimsuit with her daughters in a new campaign for Andie swimwear. “LDW ready, with @andieswim,” she captioned the photo on Instagram, referring to the long weekend. How does the mom stay so fit while being so busy?

1. She’s Happy to Be Where She Is

Demi's approach to life? "It's about embracing and no longer looking for what's wrong and really being in acceptance of everything. Gravity is going in directions that I'm not so fond of. I can look in the mirror occasionally and say 'you're lying, I don't look like that.' but the reality is the comfort I feel in my skin is the greatest gift. I wouldn't trade it. I'm just happy to be where I am," she told InStyle.

2. She Knows Things Change

“Things do change,” Demi told W Magazine not too long ago. “The biggest difference, I think, is that I’m not in nearly as good shape physically as I have been before, and I have skin going in a direction that I would prefer it not go. There are things that just come with getting older. But I think my big mantra for this year is about acceptance. I was reading this book that was written around 1919, if I am remembering correctly, and it was very of its day. It was discussing all the ‘female’ concerns. There were some horrific suggestions on how to take care of yourself, including putting some kind of acid on your skin. But there was one thing I took away, because I think it’s true—the author said not to frown because at a certain point it will stick. And what speaks to me here is that I do believe that when we hold upset, anger, hurt, pain or bitterness, it ages us and we wear it. That isn’t to say we are always going to feel happy. But it’s important not to hold on to things.”

3. She Was Once a Workout Obsessive

When getting ready for certain revealing scenes in movies, “I cut out carbs, I ran, and I biked, and I worked out on every machine imaginable. I didn’t feel like I could stop exercising,” she wrote in her book. “It was my job to fit into that unforgiving military uniform I’d be wearing in two months in A Few Good Men. Getting in shape for that movie launched the obsession with working out that would consume me over the next five years. I never dared let up.”

4. She’s Used the Mirror

Now Demi is more likely to use the Mirror, the workout device that is an actual mirror on your wall, with built-in videos that play on it. "15 min at level 1 that’s doable … right? I am stalling!" Demi wrote once in a post. "This is going to be my next jam. Okay, here I go, wish me luck."

5. She Loves Andie Swimwear

"Demi was an early investor," Andie's founder and CEO, Melanie Travis, told InStyle. "We've always talked about what would make sense to do together, and then back in December of 2020 — in anticipation of a successful vaccine rollout and then what would hopefully be a great summer of friends and family, being able to travel, and get together again, across the United States — we felt like this could be the perfect summer to do a campaign together."

Jaime Pressly is celebrating her birthday – in her bathing suit. In a new social media post the My Name Is Earl star shows off her ageless body in a swimsuit while ringing in her 47th year. “This is 47! Best birthday ever in my favorite place back home on the water. All I wanted was to get salty and that’s exactly what we did. #homesweethome #getsalty #love #happybirthday #peace,” she captioned the post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. She Lost Her Baby Weight

Pressly didn’t stress after she gave birth to her son. “I gained 42 pounds when I was pregnant,” she told Viva. “However, I’ve always been somebody who has been athletic and driven in that way. I went back to the gym when Dezi was 10 days old, so I lost 35 pounds in the first three months and the rest came off about a month later.”

2. Strength Training

Jaime strength trains with a personal trainer.. “I was in the gym six days a week for two hours for those three months – now I don’t push as hard.” She does about 300 reps of various squat positions, resistance exercises to work the lower back and butt, and abdominal exercises using gravity boots and weights. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills

3. Boxing and Kickboxing

She also loves kickboxing and boxing. Harvard Health maintains that boxing is a great way to build strength, improve balance, posture, hand-eye coordination, boost mood and endurance, and helps increase alertness.

4. Healthy Diet

Pressly eats four-to-five small meals a day. “It’s much easier when I’m working because we have craft services there with food. I supplement with a multivitamin, B-12, acidophilus, omega-3 and biotin which is really good for nails, skin and hair,” she says. “I love cheese. Mozzarella is a very low-fat cheese and I eat a lot of that which is a good protein as well,” she added. “Cayenne pepper is one of my favourite spices – it’s good for digestion and helps you burn fat. I also love rosemary which I grow in my backyard garden.”

5. Meditation

Pressly is so into meditation that she has an Om symbol tattoo. “It’s what Buddhists chant and how they meditate,” she explains. “Instead of thinking of tomorrow, I think about right now and encourage positive actions,” she says. “And I think that’s more evident when you have a child. I like to take one day at a time. I don’t have fears of running out of time. Fear makes people do stupid things and act in stupid ways. Working hard for what you have, appreciating it and knowing it’s not going to fall in your lap – those are values I hope to instill in Dezi as he grows up.”
