We love to gawk at fit celebs weekly roundup: Cheers or jeers?

In the world of celebrity fitness, there's a few gems and a whole lot of stuff that's just plain funny. Let's take a gander at the lifestyles of the rich and famous and see what we love, and what just makes us fall down on the floor in hysterical laughter. My dreamboat Gabrielle Reece is on the cover of Pregnancy magazine, because of course she still exercises and stays healthy while she's with child. Known for her straight-shooting fitness advice and Amazonian awesomeness, she's proof you can be hot and pregnant at the same time. Actually, if you check out the pics of her exercises on FitSugar, you'll realize Gabby would probably look hot taking out the garbage with her hair in curlers. Just sayin'. Solid cheers for her, and I won't hear anything otherwise.
Speaking of pregnancy, Trish Sutter, formerly of the Bachelor, wants to lose the last 10 pounds of her pregnancy weight--she's 5'2" and now weighs 116. Ah, body image in La-la land. Us magazine reports on her hatred of her belly, three months postpartum. (Cough.) We'd like to remind her that it's okay to take your time, that many ladies (hi!) hold the baby weight for a while. Jeers, not so much for the weight thing, but because Trish reports, "My friend said that when I came home from the hospital, I'd be back in my old jeans." Honey, anyone who feeds you that lie is NOT your friend.
Of course Us also has the diet and exercise plans for your weight loss, straight from the trainers to the stars. I'm sure you'll be able to follow their exact regimen and program without the benefit of a trainer and personal chef. Yeah. Anyhow, the very best bit comes from Valerie Waters, trainer to Jennifer Garner. Her exercises use a tool she created called, "The Valslide ®." Don't have one handy? Well, "You can duplicate the motion at home using a paper plate on carpet or a towel on hardwood floor." Hold on, I'll get the paper plate out as soon as I stop laughing. Jeers.
Hey, your workouts could result in a happy marriage. At least it worked for Seal and Heidi Klum. Heidi told Oprah she first spotted Seal coming out of the gym wearing bike shorts. So, did his rock-hard physique win her over? Um, I think it was more that the shorts reveal so much about a man. Ahem. I think this is cheers, just because at least he was working out, and at least she was honest about what drew her to him.
The last one comes from the In Style celebrity gallery. Celebs were asked, "What is sexy?" and boy, are there some really hilariously stupid answers. Although it's not a great question either. It'd be all jeers, except Joy Bryant listed her chocolate cake as sexy, and since most famous folks don't even remember what dessert tastes like, we'll give her big cheers for that.
