“What really helped her is she didn’t wait. Ashlee had a healthy, active lifestyle before she got pregnant,” registered dietitian Dawn Jackson Blatner said.  “Post baby, she stepped up her efforts “the gold old-fashioned way: by eating healthy meals with high-nutrition foods.”

What also helped her get back into shape was her husband Evan, who has joined her on many gym expeditions since she gave birth but helped in other ways as well. “She didn’t do this alone. Her husband watched the kids so she’d have time to go to the gym or he’d help by packing healthy snacks. I love that!” said Dawn.
