COVER STORY: The Secret to Britney’s New Bikini Body

August 12th, 2009 5:00 pm / Author: Chris Morran

Britney Spears: I Love My New Body!As Britney Spears prepares to hit the road again next week for her second concert tour of North America in less than nine months, the pop superstar — and mother of two young sons— has managed to get her body looking the best it has since the days of “Ooops!… I Did It Again” and “I’m a Slave 4 U.” And Brit herself is thrilled with her own transformation.

A source tells OK! that Britney — who flaunted her toned physique in a barely-there white Eres bikini for an Aug. 6 photo shoot in L.A. — is thrilled with her new figure.
“Britney used to hate her body when she looked in the mirror after having the boys,” a longtime pal of the singer tells OK!. “But last week she sent pictures home to [her mom] Lynne and wrote, ‘Look how good I look!’ ”

Of course, he’s even more impressed by her current bikini body. “I think the whole thing just screams, ‘I’m back,’ ” Ethan tells OK!.

The sexy mom of Sean, 3, and Jayden, 2, can credit her slamming new body in part to the Sunfare diet, a gourmet meal delivery company. Sunfare, which counts stars such as Eva Longoria Parker, Marcia Cross and Khloe Kardashian among its fans, incorporates a balanced, low-carb approach of three big meals and two snacks per day, all documented through the delivery system.

“When Britney is on Sunfare, she consumes approximately 1,100 to 1,200 calories per day,” a source reveals to OK!.

The other major factor behind Brit’s renewed physique is good old-fashioned hard work in the dance studio and on stage.

“Her outlet is dance,” the longtime friend says. “She’s still dancing at least two hours a day and sometimes she’ll rehearse up to eight hours a day.”

Still, says another insider, “It didn’t come easy. It was a long, hard road. Britney dedicated herself in such a focused way. We are all so proud of her, not just for her physical achievements but also for her mental and emotional ones.”

The Discussion

    Lay off the Starbucks girl. We DONT want to see you busting a gut in your stripper clown costumes again.

      She may look great , but I have heard stories of her crashing diets. I would love to look that way, but I wonder if it she is really slimming down in a healthy matter. For someone her size, 20 lbs gone in such a short period doesn’t say healthy to me. She crash dieting instead of making small life changes one at a time. Starbuck’s is great, but you can’t live off of it ( Olsen Drama).

  2. huh ?? says:

    She might be back, but only physically, Mentally shes wasted and beyond help. Her FAS eyes and personal hygiene (or should I say lack of) tell the REAL story. And she is still THICK in the middle.

        Everyone’s entitled to their opinion. But your comments lose all credibility when you’re calling others “dumb”, yet you can’t spell or punctuate.

    • brasscupcakes says:

  3. still fat says:

    We KNOW the Secret, its called DRUGS. I wonder how much the Spears clan pays OK to print this crap ?? I mean they bought her ANOTHER Pity award the other night. The fans didn’t vote for her so daddy took care of it. Does Tony B get PAID to post here to ?????? She FAT !! Look at that gut and those thick legs. Are you kidding ?? She does need to lay off those starbucks people will get tired of paying to watch a fat cow slither around on stage eventually.

    • whatever says:

  4. gees people ! says:

    Really people come on ?’! I’m happy for her, she’s worked really hard to be where she is today. It’s been a long hard road for her. She looks beautiful in her bikini she is far far far from fat ! She’s HEALTHY I commend her for showing all the ladies what real women curves are all about ! Not like 3/4 of El A that needs to eat and live a little. For all you ignorant haters out there; for information your body (hips) change when you have kids, that’s just nature. So I say ” you go girl !!! You rock it in that bikini” :-)

  5. ds says:

    She works out & dances on tour idiot ;)
    Bet she has a better body than you fatasses sitting behind you computer..Jealous fuks

  6. r u serious says:

    ds…..ummmmmmmmmm…..Sorry HON, what she does on stage dosent even come close to dancing……..she dances about as good as she sings….and she dosent sing live for a reason ….. she needs to wear a one piece. Her stomach and thighs are too big for a 2 piece. She jiggles…nothing sexy about jiggling…

    • really? says:

      she sings some songs live, and the ones she does sounds nice. and if you call THAT fat and too big, you clearly haven’t seen REAL women.

  7. andy says:

    SO HAPPY YOU PUT HER ON THE COVER GONNA GO AND BUY IT WHEN I LEave WORK
    LOVE HER SO MUCH AND BAD COMMENTS WHATEVER SHE THE QUEEN SO JA JA

  8. oh happy day says:

    Shes NO dancer. Just look at those legs. They are way to big. If she was a REAL dancer she wouldn’t have those big A thighs. And they wiggle !! And that gut??? Don’t get me started. Why she dosent get LIPO is beyond me. All that clown cash she has ,she can afford it. Its obvious the girl dosent know how to do sit ups or crunches. You cant drink those 1500 calorie coffees all day when your as lazy as she is. We have all seen the pics of her Fat Starbucks gut falling out of her stripper clothes.

  9. lymn2 says:

    Beautiful Brit still makes losers jealous.
    Everyone loves her fantastic figure except those brain-dead guys
    with ugly anorexic,spindly-legged girlfriends and wives.

  10. Brenda says:

    Wow… Britney looks amazing! Good for her! She looked gorgeous on the teen choice awards! She definitely is the Queen of Pop… Madonna is now a corpse! GO BRITNEY!

  11. tatiane says:

    I love brit LOVE LOVE LOVE. she’s beautiful.

  12. i love you …you are back !!!!!

  13. Quintas Collier says:

    The comments I read here are one of the reasons so many people have eating disorders. Under weight women aren’t attractive and what it takes to get them there is very unhealthy. Envy is not attractive either. I’m glad Britney is so much better, my daughter grew up with her and is her same age and she has also struggled with her weight (yet she has no children) and is is VERY hard. I wish I could loose weight too but this doesn’t make me hate everyone who has been able to reach their goals.
    Britney, I wish you the very best. Please take care of yourself and only listen to those that you admire. You have two lovely children to keep you going and to take care of yourself for, nobody else matters. They will need you for a long time so be sure and not miss any of it! You’ve had to overcome so much, we’re proud of how well you are doing. Keep it up, you look fabulous! I wish you much happiness, sweet girl…. there are sooo many of us that love you, I’m sure you can feel it….. YAY! Stay strong because you ARE!

  15. kelly says:

    you can not judge someone you do not know, or do not have any idea of his work, as some are doing it here … love your work … dancing since the age of 2 years if it was okay where it is because she fought and she deserves much more than that, eh no it does not bitch that is only in starbucks, it is those who spent the day writing, rehearsing and working, to give your best, then do not speak what vocên not know! ¬ ¬ I agree with the woman from above, you can not criticize a person who arrived at your goal because you have not, this is ridiculous! I do not believe someone before looking at itself, it is a sweet, sweet person! brit we love you, admire you very much.

  16. kelly says:

    my honey does not need to pay for it appears, the person who will back it! hate envious!

  17. lies says:

    1,100 to 1,200 calories PER Starbucks drink is more like it. We see the pics of the cow with her whip cream drinks 5 times a day and McDonald’s on the way out . EVERY DAY. Get your facts straight before you print a story. What about all those red bull’s you see in her hand. I guess they have no calories.This is nonsense. She is FAT . Her belly jiggles and her thunder thighs ?? WOW !! You call them dancer legs ??? Funny. We have all saw the pics of her gut spilling out of her Stripper Clown Costumes. She will NEVER be skinny. And if she cant even wash or comb her hair you think she can follow a strict diet ??? BWAAA AHA AHAHAHA AHAHAHHA AA

  18. Morgan says:

    I’m sorry, but how do you have any earthly idea how many calories are in her starbucks drink? Yes, i know a lot of drinks there are really bad for you, but they also have things called skinny drinks that use fat free milk and sugar free flavoring. Know how many calories are in one of these? 90! So how about YOU get your facts straight before you post an ignorant comment. She looks toned and muscley and looks great for after 2 kids. And to all of you people saying her legs jiggle, its amazing you can tell that from a still shot. Her legs look very athletic, not like a ballerina dancers legs, but like someone who works out and lift weights. People are absolutely crazy

  19. Beautiful♥ says:

    too all you dumb ass people out there calling her fat have you stopped too look at your self in the mirror lately!apparently NOT! if your calling her FAT then i guess your calling everybody else that weighs bout the same weight as her FAT and that is the bigest fucking lie ive ever heard…and for calling her insane have you ever stopped too think bout the bullshit she goes through with her career til you go through the shit she does you have no fucking room too talk!!!and for the mcdonalds comment i bet you that you that you eat mcdonalds everyday everybody eats mcdonalds doessnt mean you cant be skinny just cause wat you eat…so get the fuck over your selves before you talk bout someone else!!!Britney is doing the best she can for her kids and shes amazing!!!

  20. britney is fabulous says:

    she’s absolutly beautiful. screw any of you that can’t tell the difference between a REAL women and a spray-painted-to-look-as-skinny-as-possible fake women. she’s fabulous, and those of you talking about her “thunder things” just wish you looked like her.
