Adrienne Bailon has focused on losing weight and fitness this past year. She has been really interested in working out and eating healthier. She shares that the reason she has been so motivated to get into shape is because she wants to have a baby. She revealed that her and her husband really want to start a family soon. Some people have been wondering why she all of a sudden had an interest in losing weight. She was interviewed by Hola! US about her weight loss and she said, “I knew that wanting to have a baby I want to be in the best shape of my life,” she explained to Hola! US. “I really buckled down this summer and just made it happen. I got into a routine of working out, so that the day I’m pregnant, I can continue to be consistent with working out.”
She also said that it was really nice to lose weight because she has had an increased confidence. Now that she is more in shape and she has lost weight she is more confident to wear clothes and she isn't as self-conscious about her body. She has been able to wear a lot more different types of clothes and she loves the way she looks and feels. “I went seasons without showing my arms because that was something I was really self-conscious about,” she revealed to Hola! US. “It’s something that I am working on. I would always wear long sleeves. Now, we’re finding really cute things that just cover that one little area of arm-cleavage, and it’s been groundbreaking for my wardrobe.”
Adrienne is so excited to be able to start a family soon that she has even started to plan out her maternity style when that time comes. She said that she was inspired to wear clothes like Chissy Teigen, Kourtney Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez and Shay Mitchell. She said that they had adorable maternity looks that she hopes she can master. “For my body type I definitely know that I’ll have to wear more bodycon or form fitting things that like will show that I’m pregnant so that you don’t just think I’m just out here, you know, eating burritos and stuff,” she told Hola! US.
It turns out that she has been trying to start a family for awhile now and it has not be as easy as she thought it was going to be. She is hoping that losing weight and getting into shape will provide her with a better chance to get pregnant. “I think for myself I thought it would happen so easily for me and it just hasn’t happened that way,” she continued. “I’ve had to come to peace with that it’ll happen when it’s God’s timing and I believe in that and I have faith in all of that. But it can be really discouraging and it can be really frustrating.”
