1. She Doesn’t Love Working Out But Puts the “Hard Work” In

"Gonna be honest... I hate working out. I dread it," she wrote on her Instagram once. "I'm one of those girls that watches the clock and counts down to the last second when I can be done," she shared. "I wish I enjoyed it. I wish I was a big workout junkie but the truth is I just don't!" What she does know: "I do know that in order to achieve The strong body that I want to have and maintain I MUST put the hard work into it."

2. This is Her Breakfast Routine

"When I wake up, I start with some coffee and a little cream and stevia. I drink it all morning long," the cookbook author told Women's Health. "I don't like to eat until I'm actually hungry, which is usually later, around 11 a.m." Then she’ll have: "I'll have some bread from a local bread company. I get fresh honey wheat bread every week," she says. "That's honestly what we all eat for breakfast: Toast and butter. We have salted butter that we leave out, so it's really nice and mushy when we're spread it on on our bread. We love our toast in the morning."

3. This is Her Dinner Ethos

"When you're cooking at home and you know what you're putting in your food, I don't think you have to be that strict," she told Women’s Health. "I don't always think it needs to be grilled chicken over greens. A lot of times I make my homemade pasta so I know what's going in the pasta. It's not that challenging and it's worth it."

4. She Tried the South Beach Diet

Jesse promoted the South Beach Diet meal plan. "I’m running around with my kids, and there were times I used to forget to feed myself and would it be a problem because I would get exhausted and just crash," she told Self. "If I’m in a hurry, I will have the South Beach Ricotta Muffins," she says. "Some mornings I’ll just have turkey bacon and scrambled eggs."

5. She Admitted She Had Some Body Confidence Issues

"I'll be honest I still get insecure when I put a swimsuit on sometimes because of how much loose skin I have from my pregnancies," she captioned a selfie. "I worked really hard to lose all of my baby weight. Even gaining 55 pounds with my first. It's no wonder I have so much loose skin two out of the three babies were 9 pounds," she wrote on Instagram once. "I am a human being and sometimes the loose skin does make me a little insecure and make me wonder if I'm still sexy to Eric or if people are looking at my stomach when I'm in a bikini which I'm sure sounds silly but it's just me being in my head sometimes."

6. She Has Chronic Migraines and Neck Pain

"It's all connected," she told People. "I grind my teeth at night…. which means I'm straining so much on my neck muscles, which has been grinding up against vocal chords, which is why I was losing my voice. So the migraines, the TMJ, all of this is super connected in my head, and my neck, and causes me a lot of neck pain." Why the migraines? "They say stress," she says. "But there are times where I'm just like, 'I don't feel stressed.' I don't feel like anything's bugging me…. It can be certain things like sleeping wrong."

7. Here’s Her Advice to Those in Chronic Pain

"I know it can be so hard," she told People. "A lot of times people that don't have migraines really don't understand how horrible they are." "It gets better," she says. "Listen to your body, listen to what it's telling you, and just take it easy."

Jessie James Decker is bumping along in her bathing suit. In one of her latest social media posts the pregnant country singer flaunts her growing bump in a white swimsuit. “Beach baby,” she captioned the Instagram clip of herself walking in the ocean. While many of her commenters weighed in on the baby’s gender, predicting a girl, others took note of the song she chose “Here comes the sun,” claiming it was a hint in the other direction. How does the mother-of-three – soon to be four — keep herself fit and healthy? Here are her top health habits.

1. 45-Minute Max Workouts

Jessie works out regularly but likes to keep it short but sweet. “I went to the gym for 30 minutes, and I ran a mile,” she told CMT. “I lifted some weights, and that’s it.” Her biggest tip? “Carve out 30 to 45 minutes of time. At the end of the day, 45-minutes is really not that much of your time,” she continued. “ I don’t love the excuses people provide, ‘I don’t have time to work out,’ or ‘I don’t need it.’ You have time to get a good workout in. Just do it. There are YouTube videos that I will watch. There’s such a variety.”

2. Exercising to Eat and Drink Wine

It’s all about the right motivation, Jessie claims. “Let’s Go, Baby!!! Sweat it out! Put in the work! I work out hard so I can eat good and enjoy my wine 😜 all about balance sweet cheeks!” she wrote alongside one of her workout videos.

3. Cooking

Jessie loves to cook so much, she has her own cookbook called Just Eat!. "I am such a lover of food," she told Women's Health. "Everyone around me—my friends, my family—knows it; I am a foodie. I think about food when I wake up and I go to bed thinking about if I could have another snack. I just love to eat."

4. Stairmaster Cardio

Decker is a fan of an old school cardio machine. “I love the StairMaster,” she revealing on Instagram. Another butt-shaping move she likes? “Lunges are key, I do 100 at a time,” she said

5. Walking

Jessie has another way she stays in shape without having to spend any money. “I love nice long walks,” she said in the clip. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

1. She Starts Her Day With Coffee

Jessie starts her day with coffee with a bit of cream and Stevia, often made by her husband, former NFL player Eric Decker. Not a bad idea. "Coffee is associated with many different health benefits: Type 2 diabetes; reduced risk of heart disease; reduced risk of certain cancers; improved mood; reduced risk of depression, Parkinson's disease; the list goes on and on," Dr. Donald Hensrud, director of the Mayo Clinic Healthy Living Program, tells the Mayo Clinic. "It's the highest source of antioxidants, and, so, even decaffeinated coffee has been associated with a reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes, similar to caffeinated coffee.” She says she drinks it all day; try to avoid coffee after 2pm or else it may affect your sleep.

2. She Says Everything in Moderation

"There are some weeks when I'm following more of a strict diet because I have something coming up," she says. "But, you know, for the most part, I'm always enjoying food and I always say 'everything in moderation' on a day-to-day basis." By the way, consuming the right types of saturated fat in moderation can actually help you torch body fat. Some of the best examples are lean beef and coconut.

3. She and Her Husband Eat Turkey Bacon

While their kids eat fruit and yogurt, Jessie often starts her day with turkey bacon. To boost your metabolism, when you wake up, have a tall glass of water (16 ounces) and for breakfast, two eggs fried in olive oil with a side of turkey bacon. Then for a snack later on, take a cue from her kids and try Greek yogurt with fruit.

4. Olive Oil is Her Go-To

The right fats slow the sugar into your bloodstream so your blood sugar levels are more stable and your metabolism can keep humming along as need be. Those include monosaturated fats, such as olives and olive oil; nuts and nut butters; even dark chocolate. They also include polyunsaturated fats, including oily fish, plant-based saturated fats like coconut oil, and omega-3 fatty acids, found in items such as salmon, tuna, sardines, grass-fed beef; flaxseed, chia seeds, and more.

5. She Loves Food

"I am such a lover of food," she tells Women's Health. "Everyone around me—my friends, my family—knows it; I am a foodie. I think about food when I wake up and I go to bed thinking about if I could have another snack. I just love to eat."

6. Here's Her Take on Working Out With Her Husband

"An exercise that I dread would probably be donkey kicks because it makes my head shake and I get really dizzy, but they're so good for you. My husband and I do not typically work out together. We tried, but he annoys me when we work out. Because he think he knows everything. I don't know why, like what does he do? Right," she joked. "But he tries to like over tell me what to do and I'm doing something wrong and I'm just like shooing him away and just leave me alone because I feel like whatever I'm doing, it works for me. And even though the technique may be wrong, doesn't matter," she told Taste of Country.

7. Working Out is a Priority

"Working out is such a priority to me," she told GMA last month. "It helps me build my stamina, my strength. I'll be honest, I don't love running. It's never been one of my favorite things." She said she preferred an indoor exercise bike. "I love the incline. It really gets me going, gets my heart rate up. My number one request is to always have dumbbells. If you work out every single muscle group" and pay attention to your "form," you'll see results.
