Here at That's Fit, we're all about fitting in fitness during the holidays by finding ways to get the exercise we need -- even when time is short. It seems Kate Hudson is fanatical about fitness too -- she's spending her Christmas holidays hitting the slopes with her family.

According to Female First, Kate recently told reporters, "Every year we go to Colorado because we grew up there and we ski." Even her 4-year-old son is into the winter sport. Recalls Hudson, 29: "He [was] just zooming down the mountain and I started to cry. I grew up skiing, and then you see your kids ski and there's a freedom in it, it's beautiful." Good for Kate -- starting 'em young is a great way to get them fit for life.

Love skiing? Be glad you do -- five hours of skiing burns over 2,000 calories!

As if she's not already perfect enough, Kate Hudson is also uber-fit, at least according to what she told reporters at a recent interview. "Sports are big in my life," says the gorgeous blond star. "I swim, run, bike and dance, play volleyball and soccer, and I want to start training for a triathlon. I'm one of those people who love to be active." Dang. No wonder she looks so good.

And when it came to losing 50 pounds of baby weight after giving birth to son Ryder, Hudson stuck to the sports she loves instead of slaving away at the gym, because "life is too short to be concerned with anything but having a great time."

I couldn't agree more.

The Jonas Brothers are one of the hottest acts around, with a huge amount of influence on teens and tweens, which is why the fact that they're actively talking about diabetes is such a big deal. Nick Jonas was diagnosed a couple of years ago, and instead of letting him get down about it, the brothers have used it as a platform to help others. That rocks!

Kate Hudson tends to look fabulous in whatever she wears -- haute couture, jeans and a tee, or a bikini. She doesn't just rely on genetics to keep her looking hot, though -- she incorporates all kinds of workouts into her fitness routine to stay in shape.

Everyone needs a way to get rid of their stress, and Raven-Symone is no different. The actress relies on boxing to keep her self-proclaimed "anger issues" at bay.

Earlier this year Jacki wrote about Kate Hudson's exercise habits -- basically, to get that toned physique, the actress works out all the time. However, there's more to it than just that.

In order to stay in top shape, Kate cross-trains. And it's nothing fancy -- she goes for a jog, plays tennis, and does a lot of the same basic exercises you and I can step outside and do ourselves.

I'm sure she has other, more specific workouts in the gym when she's getting ready to film, but personally, I take heart in knowing that she does a lot of regular workouts. Not everyone has to have a fancy routine to look amazing, right?

What do Kate Hudson, Keri Russell, Tobey Maguire, and Gwyneth Paltrow have in common besides their star status? They're all concerned about their kids' safety. And they're all sharing some eco-friendly advice in the new book Healthy Child, Healthy World. Other stars chime in too.

Paltrow shares in the book her recipe for baby Moses's Brown Rice Baby Food. Hudson dishes about her own line of natural hair products and admits she hides veggies in son Ryder's food. Holly Robinson Peete tells how she gets her kids to help with household chores -- using only the greenest of products, of course.

Everything in this book is accessible, reasonable, and doable, says author Christoper Gavigan. It's a book about small changes. It's for everyone, he says. It's also a companion for this website: healthychild.org. Check it out when you can.

Adrian Grenier sprints and lets the paparazzi know that it's "a non-event." I wonder if the girls with him think it's a non-event ...

Julianne Moore told OK magazine that she's "hungry all the time. All actresses are hungry all the time." That seems like quite the generalization, especially considering Sarah Jessica Parker recently came out saying that she eats everything. Who do you believe? SJP might have a ridiculously high metabolism, but I think it's more likely (and really unfortunate) that Julianne probably speaks for more of Hollywood.

Actress Kate Hudson, who says she isn't worried about being totally perfect, has danced her whole life and she works out all the time too. That's why her body is so, well, perfect.

Hudson, starring with Matthew McConaughey in the movie Fool's Gold, primed her body and prepped for her role by getting certified for scuba on the Great Barrier Reef. It took her a couple of weeks to accomplish this feat. It took McConaughey five seconds, she says.

Yep, those Fool's Gold diving scenes are the real deal. So is Hudson's physique.

Cellulite is something that affects almost every woman out there -- even seemingly perfect celebrities. Jessica Simpson, Kate Hudson and Mischa Barton are among those who are plagued with cottage cheese flab, according to Life & Style Magazine. But cellulite doesn't always have the final word; Here are some tips for avoiding it or getting rid of it:

• Do like Jessica Simpson and choose only sugar-free drinks
• Do like Kate Hudson and get some exercise in -- though exercise alone won't make all the difference
• Do as Mischa Barton does and eat a diet low in fat and high in estrogen.
  

Good advice? What do you think?

This is pretty sad. I am just now getting to the point where I can post what I've written below. Between being a mommy, taking a road trip to see the families, taking the kiddo to the doctor twice about a face rash and trying to get my life in order (I recently got a new job) I've had precious little time to exercise, and even less time to write about it!

That said, and without further ado, I would like to point out that although it's been, er, steep, I have kept running....

The hills in Prospect Park are alive...with the sound of my grunting as I shimmy up them. I wouldn't exactly say I run up these hills, but I'm not walking either. It's tough getting back in shape after a baby, and these hills are a constant reminder of that.

Still, progress has been made. I am able to get up the hills, even the big one that is such a nemesis we've given her a name, Sheila. Sheila has three curves to her, the third of which is hidden until you make it to the top of the second curve, which is also the steepest. What's interesting to me is that Sheila is my enemy no more.

I've never had a baby but since I have enough trouble getting rid of that extra 10 pounds I gained on my trip to Greece (Oh, gyros, you are pure, tasty evil), I can only imagine how hard it would be to lose an extra 30 pounds. How do moms do it?

AOL Body has put together the slimming secrets of some top celebrity moms. Among them: Heidi Klum, who used a personal trainer and the 3-Hor Diet; Kate Winslet used some British weightloss plan called the Facial Analysis Diet (umm, have to look that one up!); Reese Witherspoon ate healthfully and did yoga; Denise Richards used the Zone; and Kate Hudson went high-protein, low-carb.

How did you lose the baby weight?
