The Secret to Melissa Gorga's Smoking Bod? Chasing Kids

Love her or hate her, you have to admit that Melissa Gorga has a hot bod (just ask hubby Joey). But diet is a four-letter word that's not in this Real Housewives of New Jersey star's vocabulary. "There is no dieting going on in the Gorga household!" the 32-year-old "On Display" singer tells Life & Style. "I can't diet! I stay active so I can eat what I want."

The Gorgas three children -- Antonia, Gino and Joey -- act as Melissa's trainers most of the time. "I'm up and down the stairs and running around the house, so I feel I get cardio that way," she adds. The rest of the time the petite brunette focuses on toning by hooking up with trainer Kelly Giordano three times a week for hour-long weight workouts.

And cover your ears, old-school Italians. Melissa says she's not into the ginormous family meals that include no less than three pasta dishes. "I'm not a huge meat-and-potatoes girl. I tend to go for lighter meals, because that's what I enjoy." We bet Teresa has a few recipes for that.
