Teen Mom 2 star Chelsea Houska Deboer has been active on her Instagram profile lately, showing off her weight loss and new figure.
A lot of my clients are fans of the show about teen moms, so I’ve been getting questions about how Chelsea lost weight.
I’ve spent countless hours studying her social media and going through the interviews she’s given, and I’ve got all the info on how she managed to look so good.
Quick Summary
- Chelsea Houska's healthy diet entails fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, oatmeal, vegetables, salmon, vegetables, lean beef, broccoli, and chicken breast.
- Houska also takes pre-workout supplements, prenatal vitamins, and carb blockers.
- Chelsea admits that eating healthy throughout and avoiding junk helped her lose 50 pounds.
- You can't lose weight, no matter how hard you train if you don't eat nutritious and healthy meals.
Stats
- Height: 5’3”
- Weight: 115 lbs
- Born: August 29, 1991
A South Dakota native, Chelsea Houska, got pregnant at age 16. She dropped out of school and starred in the MTV show 16 and Pregnant, followed by Teen Mom 2.
She got her first baby girl in 2009, but the relationship with the father of her child didn’t work out. She married Cole Deboer, with whom she has two kids.
I am sure some of her popularity comes from her looks, especially her 50-pound weight loss, which has got everyone wanting to know how she managed to lose so much weight.
I’ve got the answer.
Chelsea Houska Workout Routine
Teen Mom star admitted that even though it’s not easy with three kids, she sticks to a strict exercise routine, which looks like this:

Days 2 and 4 CrossFit
Chelsea is a huge CrossFit fan, and she has been going to CrossFit for years for about twice a week.

Another Chelsea’s workout habit is kickboxing, and she claims kickboxing helped her with weight loss and mental health.
She has been outspoken to her followers about mental health issues, and she says that a good kickboxing session always makes her feel better and ready to tackle any problem.
Houska’s Diet Plan
Teen mom admitted that after giving birth to daughter Aubree, she wasn’t feeling great about herself, and she wasn’t feeling good in general.
‘I wasn’t caring about what I ate or trying to eat healthy, and I ended up gaining weight, which resulted in me having a rough time toward the end of pregnancy.’

This was when she teamed up with a company called Profile, where she had one-on-one coaching. She also says this is where she learned to make healthier choices about her diet and stop eating junk food.
With this diet and lifestyle change, she lost 50 pounds.
Most importantly, once she reached her ideal weight, she didn’t go back to her old habits, but she stuck with the program through her third pregnancy, and after giving birth to her second baby, she looks great.

Both stars — Chelsea and husband Cole DeBoer — stick to a weight loss diet. They avoid eating processed foods and sugar, but they like to cook and do meal prep in advance.
Although every time Chelsea posts a photo or an Instagram story, she gets criticized by fans who critique her weight loss and diet, she says she has never looked nor felt better.
She often features her oldest daughter Aubree, and her younger daughter and son in photos in their family home, saying they are her biggest fans and supporters in having a healthy diet.
‘I was feeling great, had more energy than ever, and couldn’t have been happier. I felt amazing in my wedding dress and proud that I had done that for myself.’
