1. She Stays Healthy During The Week, And Indulges On Weekends

Childs revealed some of her favorite healthy meals she makes each day to Closer. “In the morning, I’ll have two poached eggs with avocado. Lunch is a goat’s cheese salad or jacket potato with cheese. Tim, my boyfriend [who Amy started dating this year], is the better cook, but I’m getting better. In the evening, I make family dishes – spaghetti Bolognese, lasagne, or chicken with veg. I’ll freeze leftovers. I snack on apples, but if I’m hungry, I love Wotsits.”

3. She Works With A Trainer

Childs is open about her weight loss journey with her followers. In 2018, she revealed on her Instagram stories that she had started a new weight loss journey. Child revealed that she had started to work with a personal trainer to help get herself back in shape. “Hi guys, so today is the day 1 of getting back into shape,” she said. “I've got to be honest the second time round I found it very hard, obviously having two kids to get fit. But I have been introduced to one of the best trainers out there Rob, so basically I need to get really fit.”

4. She Does Full-Body Workouts

In those same Instagram stories, Childs and her trainer, Rob, talked about the exercise routine the reality star is doing. He says that they do full-body workouts, and a mix of cardio and strength training. “So the plan is, we are going to be doing three full body workouts a week with weights and cardio workouts too,” he explained.

5. She’s Happy With Her Body

In 2019, Childs told The Sun that she is a lot more comfortable with her body, and that she doesn’t need to get alterations anymore. “I have not had cosmetic surgery for a long time now, and, for me, being a mum you totally change the way you look at things. Back in the day on Towie you ended up getting obsessed with your looks, but now I am 32 this year and in a completely different mindset. I am really happy in me now. I haven’t got the size 8 body that I used to have, however, I have two lovely children, and that’s all I care about, so I am very happy in myself.”
