It took about a year for Tamera Mowry-Housley to get back in shape after having her baby, and she’s happy with her results! How Tamera Mowry-Housley Dropped 48 Pounds It’s pretty simple, really. Tamera eliminated 500 calories a day from her diet, eating mostly healthy foods, and exercised 5 days a week. “I don’t believe in cutting everything out…you’ll go crazy! I did 80% healthy and clean, and 20% whatever I wanted” -Tamera Mowry-Housley The celeb currently weighs 127 pounds, which is 3 pounds less than her pre-pregnancy weight.

Tamera just focused on a healthy lifestyle of eating the right foods and exercising – but nothing extreme. Love it! It’s realistic for most (or all!) new moms, and shows...

I kept thinking two things the entire time: 1) Thank goodness I am happily married and not on The Bachelor (yes, Juan Pablo is easy on the eyes, but the dating format is just not my style). 2) I HAVE to create a Bachelor Workout Game for all of you. So that’s exactly what I did! ;) The Bachelor Workout Game Juan Pablo has fun kissing lots of girls throughout the show. That’s going to cost you 25 jumping jacks for each kiss session!
