Skinny VS Curvy

Tweet

Petite and fit Kelly Ripa (41) is featured in Good Housekeeping this month, where she shares a few thoughts on being fit:

On Exercise: “I work out every day. It’s part of my life. That’s one of the benefits of having kids in school full-time. I’m usually done with work around 11 A.M., so I have time before I pick the kids up from school. I do it more for my insides than my outside, but the outside gets a nice benefit, too. I feel like my mind is a little quieter when I exercise. And I don’t have the best family history heart-wise, so I really try to keep my heart strong. I work out with a trainer three days a week. We do what I would call cardio ballet and power yoga. I take spinning classes, which I love, and I run.”

… says Kelly.

On her body image: “The first thing you learn when you put on borrowed clothes at a fashion shoot is that someone always has bigger boobs, a smaller waist and longer legs than you do. Actually, everyone has bigger boobs than I do!”

“I have small boobs,” she told Life & Style as she arrived at the Super Saturday shopping event in Water Mill, N.Y., on Aug. 1. “When I shop, I basically hold the clothes up, put the hanger over my head and go, ‘It kinda looks like it’ll fit.’” But “kinda” is the key word. “If the price is right,” Kelly continued, “I’ll take it and have it altered, because I normally have to have the bust taken out of everything.”

In fact, the Live With Regis and Kelly co-host has learned to accept having to take an extra step to make her clothes fall perfectly on her 5-foot-3 frame. While Kelly, 38, has said she doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with plastic surgery, going under the knife to up her A-cup isn’t something she’ll consider as she gets older. “I would never have a boob job,” Kelly told Life & Style’s reporter at the shopping event. “I am too wimpy. Are you kidding? I am such a wimp!”

“I like to say I’m a 32A long,” Kelly, who swears by Victoria’s Secret bras, tells Life & Style. “I’ve added the long because I’ve nursed three kids.” But Kelly, who has the constant encouragement of her hubby, actor Mark Consuelos, is completely comfortable with herself. “I feel really happy as I am now and with what I’ve got,” she said. Gesturing to Mark, she added, “He’s happy, so he doesn’t care about that.”

Oh Wow. This girl’s got muscles! Check out those arms! That stomach! And those legs!

Good for her for keeping in shape (although I don’t think that she NEEDS to be THIS muscular… plus, it doesn’t flatter her cleavage), but what do YOU say? Are you a fan of this kind of figure or do you prefer a softer look?

There’s more after the jump!
