Blake Lively shows off 61-pound weight loss

Blake Lively has shed a staggering 61 pounds since giving birth to daughter Ines in September 2016.

The actress, 30, revealed her impressive toned stomach on Instagram as she worked out with her personal trainer, Don Saladino.

Looking stunning in a black sports bra and skintight leggings, Lively rested her arm on Saladino’s shoulder and gazed at him with admiration.

She captioned the shot: “Turns out you can’t lose the 61 lbs you gained during pregnancy by just scrolling through Instagram and wondering why you don’t look like all the bikini models. Thanks @donsaladino for kickin my A double S into shape. 10 months to gain, 14 months to lose. Feeling very proud 💪😁💪.”

Saladino also spoke of his pride in Lively, after her dedication to his grueling workouts transformed her body.

In another snap, Lively flexed her arms and smiled at the camera.

Saladino wrote: “Couldn’t be more proud @blakelively! 61 pounds in 14 months after baby number 2!”

In September 2016, Lively gave birth to second daughter Ines with actor husband Ryan Reynolds, but the couple didn’t reveal her name for two months.

Reynolds paid tribute to Lively during his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony that year.

In his speech, proud dad Reynolds gushed about his family and said: “I want to thank my wife, Blake, who is sitting right there, who is everything to me. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me.You make everything better. You make everything in my life better. You’ve given me two of the most incredible children I’ve ever hoped to have.

“You’ve made me the father of my dreams when I thought I only had fun uncle potential.”

Lively and Reynolds met and fell in love while on the set of “Green Lantern” back in 2011, and tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in 2012.

Their first daughter, James, was born in December 2014.
