Beyonce Lost 57 Pounds Of Baby Weight By Dancing, And By Removing Her Fake Belly

Isn’t it amazing how celebrities always manage to lose weight by having fun? Whereas us normals have to go to the gym and sweat in public and pay absurd amounts of money for juice cleanses, they can just go about their days and shed pounds. Take Beyonce Knowles for example. Do you know her? She’s not Michelle Williams and she’s not Kelly Rowland. Yep, she’s that third one who faded into away into obscurity. Why, you’d probably pass her on the street and not even recognize her.

She apparently lost 57 pounds of her Blue Ivy baby weight by dancing. Or so she tells Shape for the April issue, which came to us via The Sun. Ugh The Sun I know. They’re like the Facebook friend you just can’t defriend because every 100 statuses, she says something entertaining.

She revealed: “I gained 57 pounds when I was pregnant. I didn’t have a lot of time to lose the weight, because I scheduled a show three months after I gave birth, which I would never do again. ”I’m not a person that is naturally very thin. I am a person that has to work at keeping my body in shape.” Beyonce also admitted that the secret to her incredible body and shedding the excess weight quickly was dancing.

My only question is how much of that baby weight got danced off, and how much just got taken off by unvelcroing the fake pregnancy belly she wore. ZING.

I know, I know, we thought we put these surrogacy allegations to rest a few months ago. But then we saw her documentary and completely changed our minds. For a woman who recorded every moment of her life, it’s pretty suspicious that there’s no clear footage of her walking around pregnant. Pretty, pretty suspicious indeed. I didn’t spend multiple weekends watching Law & Order: SVU marathons to not be able to spot an (alleged) lie when it’s staring me in the face.

Sure, sure, sure, maybe she really did give birth to Blue Ivy and maybe she really did lose all that weight from dancing. But that’s just not fair to the rest of us. You know, the people who can’t lose weight by dancing or bungee jumping or watching sports on TV or the 10,000 other insane ways celebrities claim to lose weight.

    I pay $15 a month for unlimited Zumba classes. It’s been three months and I lost 15 pounds. It’s been the best thing I’ve ever done for myself, just ignoring everyone else and having fun with music I would never listen to in a million years. I can see Beyonce losing the weight that way, my mortal puny chubby self did it.

      So what you’re saying is I need to go a class, and stop doing my own routines in the mirror at home? Because I do a lot of dance-improv!

    Jenni, I’m glad I can laugh about this =D. Truth be told, for her especially, because she does work so hard, I’m not surprised that she lost the weight dancing. And not dancing like we do with our friends at a club. I’m talking about hard choreographed dancing, that you do over and over again. I’ve seen how these dancers work, and they work hard. I miss dancing until I couldn’t take it anymore. I wish that I had that discipline, I certainly miss it. As it stands though, I still need to lose 10 pounds to fit into my size 6 (maybe even 4). On top of that, you know that she’s got a trainer, a personal chef and people riding her about what needs to get done, not to mention the stress that comes with that. Makes me wish I had a personal chef and trainer. I think that they should be covered by insurance for the first year after pregnancy for us every day girls.
