Jennifer Lopez Is Not a Fitness “Monster” Anymore

Jennifer Lopez is the cover girl in Allure Magazine and she’s got a thing or two to say about staying in shape:

Has Jennifer Lopez let herself go? Has she sworn off the gym and calorie counting? Of course not — but she has chilled out, now that she’s a 40 year-old mother of twins Emme and Max, 21 months (their dad is her husband Marc Anthony).

“I’m not the monster I used to be in the exercise department,” Lopez says in the January issue of Allure. “You get past your 20s, you’ve got kids…you’re kind of unmotivated.”

The famously curvy singer-actress admits, “You want to be healthy and look good, but you want to do the least amount to maintain that.”

When she does need to hit the red carpet or a performance stage (as she did at November’s AMAs, where she slipped off a male dancer’s sweaty back), the star practices a more vigorous and frequent gym routine. Food-wise, Lopez says she’s a “big portion control person.”

Her attitude sounds pretty realistic – and I’m with her on the “pro portion control” thing.
