Carrie Underwood only gave birth seven months ago, but she has already regained her incredible postbaby body. And her best tip for getting her tummy back to being as flat as before is as simple as cutting out bread.
“I'm vegan, and I love bread, but recently, I started making dinner a breadless meal," she shared in the November issue of Shape Magazine. "I'll have a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, and I'll make a sandwich on Ezekiel bread for lunch, but in the evening I'll have protein and vegetables and no bread. When I wake up, my belly is flat!"

The 32-year-old also gave some insight into her workouts. "After I had Isaiah, my goal was to take control of mybody again," she said. "I was lucky: I gained only 30 pounds, which is the recommendedamount, and I exercised throughout my pregnancy.”
The new mom doesn't like to do the same thing over and over when it comes to her fitness routines. “I like to continually mix up my routines to stay motivated,” she added. “But my favorite workout is Tabata, which I can do at home in about a halfhour. I’m in love with it! It’s hard, but it really works. I choose sevendifferent exercises, like squats, lunges, or push- ups, and do eight rounds ofeach — 20 seconds on, 20 seconds off for eight rounds. It really revs up mymetabolism. When I’m done, I can handle anything."

Juggling so many things as well as a new baby can be difficult butCarrie revealed she stays in control by taking a small time-out for herself eachday. "I think it's so important to sit quietly everyday for 10 minutes,” she said. “In the morning, I enjoy my cup of coffee andplan the day in my head to be ready for it. And sometimes at night, I sip aglass of red wine and just relax. I'velearned to give myself a break."
