Tom tells Katie to lose the baby weight

According to Life & Style, Tom Cruise has reportedly told fiance and baby mama, actress Katie Holmes, that she needs to get a move on shedding her post-pregnancy fat.

With an impending wedding, an insider says, Tom wants Katie to look her absolute best on their big wedding day.  The movie star reportedly put Katie on a strict weight loss plan, including a low-fat food diet, a multivitamin regime, and a cardio and ab-based workout.

The insider says that Tom has  also forbidden Katie from indulging in sweets, including her favorite: fruit smoothies.  As for Katie’s reaction, whose friends say is growing tired of Tom’s weight obsession, she is taking it in stride.

"She laughs it off, but I know it’s hard for her," her friend said.

Seriously what a jackass…I just can’t STAND him. I actually have nightmares about him and scientology.

I’m not sure if I should believe this but I wouldn’t be surprised if it were true.

- NicoleMarie on June 30th, 2006

I am not sure if this is true or not but I just had a thought. Maybe just maybe they will do a photoshoot for their wedding and show Suri then.

- Posh_Fan on June 30th, 2006

Do you think that is true? Why havent we seen a pic(either far away or up close) of the baby? Does it even exist?

- Carrie on June 30th, 2006

Tom Cruise really needs to get it together! That man is a total nightmare and I’m honestly shocked that Katie hasn’t left him yet..I wouldn’t want my kid to be growing up around him!

- Kelsey on June 30th, 2006

Hmm, makes ya wonder. Maybe if she doesn’t lose the weight she won’t have to get stuck marrying him. hahahaa. If this is true, which I can believe …. he’s such a jerk. I have even refused to see his latest movie, I know hubby really wanted to go see it too.

- Eliza on June 30th, 2006

I’m not buying this story. “Insiders” can’t even tell us if Suri is real or not. How the heck do they know that Tom put Katie on a strict diet?

- funkyfeet on June 30th, 2006

I don’t believe Tom would be intentionally cruel. Maybe this story is being taken out of context. We shouldn’t jump to conclusions based on what a “friend” says. Just my feelings on the matter.

- Lisa on June 30th, 2006

I doubt it’s true (being from Life & Style and all) but that would be really sick.

- Summerside on June 30th, 2006

In the more recent picks of Katie she seems to shedding baby weight just fine. I don’t find this any more believeable than the rest of the gossip out there lately.

The only public I’ve heard Tom make was that Katie isn’t on any program to loose weight she’s just nursing and taking care of Suri. That was from a video clip, which I’ll take over un-named ‘insiders’.

Though I suppose if this is to be believed then it contradicts the whole ‘there’s really no baby’ rumors that appear to be just as fun. It seems the rumors are starting to contradict themselves.

Either there is no baby, and thus no baby weight or there is a baby and Tom’s in a fit cause Katie hasn’t lost it yet. Or neither. Could be they had a baby and pretty much all that’s left are some fairly run of the mill stretch marks, and Tom hasn’t jumped on enough furniture to provide anything other than more rumors to support the magazine trade?

- Lauren on June 30th, 2006

Keep in mind that this is from Life & Style. They make US Weekly seem credible.

That said, I still hope Katie comes to her senses soon.

- dave on June 30th, 2006

I’m hesitant to believe this because only a complete A-hole could put the mother of his newborn baby on a “strict diet”.

Run, Katie, Run!

- yogadaisy on June 30th, 2006

BAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA. Omg, what a psycho.

- Mommyx1 on June 30th, 2006

when was the last time we EVER saw Katie drinking a fruit smoothie??

where do they come up with this stuff? Tom already said she eats cupcakes like crazy!

somebody PLEASE sue the pants off of Life and Style! this is getting ridiculous!!

- MuffThumb on June 30th, 2006

oh, and tom already said Katie’s not doing anything to lose baby weight except feeding Suri. and the Buff Brides company already said Katie’s NOT working with them!

- MuffThumb on June 30th, 2006

I can only hope this is just some made up story. The last thing a new mother needs is some man telling her to lose the baby weight!

He is kind of strange, but I just can’t believe he would be that mean.

- Lisa on June 30th, 2006

I’m not sure if this is true…I hope it’s not! I will never understand that man.

- Cherish on June 30th, 2006

He is a crazy man…but I kind of doubt this is true.

- crazylibra on June 30th, 2006

are we going to believe.. sorry kate lost too much baby weight; now the baby is missing.

- d. c. on June 30th, 2006

Please. I just don’t believe this. Life and Style is tends to be very, very inaccurate with their news. If I remember correctly, they also predicted that Suri was a boy.

- Sid on June 30th, 2006

Gosh I hope this isn’t true! If she is nursing she will lose weight in due time.

- DancingMom on July 1st, 2006

i heard a rummor a few years back that the reason tom and nicole adoted was he didnt want nicole to “ruin” her body. dont know if its true or not, but if it is, it might play into that “suri was actually adoted” rummor flying around.

- sandy on July 1st, 2006

This story can not be true. Life & Style doesn’t exactly have the best track record when it comes to celebrity gossip! And they just jump on the “TRASH TOM CRUISE” bandwagon to sell their pathetic rag mags!!! Katie is a grown woman who is making her own decisions and she seems very happy with the life she has chosen! I don’t understand why that is so hard for people to believe. She was really pregnant, she really did have a baby. They just choose not to exploit her like certain other celebrities. Good for them both!

- DJ on July 1st, 2006

I think this is false. First of all, Tom was interviewed on TV saying that Katie is not dieting and that she is just losing the weight by breastfeeding. Secondly, every one wants to think that Tom is this MONSTER, but in all reality, he just cares about his wife. If my husband wanted me to lose weight, he would TELL me as well. Tom Cruise gets such a bad rap on every magazine and show going…I just wish that people would realize not EVERYTHING the media says is true….not for Tom, not for Britney not for anything..they are in the SELLING MAGAZINES business and of course they are going to SPIN every story. Sheesh…give the guy a break.

- Trace on July 1st, 2006

I don’t know whether or not to believe it. “Insider info” is not always reliable. But if it’s true, not even fruit smoothies?? Geez!!

- Aleah on July 1st, 2006

No one knows if it’s true or not (wouldn’t surprise me really). But if it is true and I were Katie… I’d be telling him to go find himself a new fiance (among a few other things I can’t say here).

- Rachel K. on July 1st, 2006

If this one is true, shame on Tom!!! I doubt it is true though. I really don’t think he would be that way. He is a crazy kook with his Scientology stuff and his couch jumping, but the man doesn’t seem to be a cruel person. Especially to the mother of his child. And as for not seeing Suri, isn’t that part of the whole Scientology thing?? Not having the baby out and about for awhile?? Maybe that is all it is. I am sure we will see her soon enough. However, with negative press and paparazzi around constantly he may be wary.

- tink1217 on July 1st, 2006

Oh and well said TRace!!

- tink1217 on July 1st, 2006

If this is true she is a MORON!! YOu have to lose the weight for YOU not because your “man” says you need to! Ugh ! I am not sure it is true but it honestly wouldn’t shock me.

- Michelle on July 1st, 2006

Whether this is true or not, he’s still a very controlling person and Katie is too naive to even see it and deal with it.

- Doreen on July 1st, 2006

I have seen her out in LA with fruit smoothies by the way.
Who knows if it’s true or not but I wouldn’t put it past him to pull this. Time to bust out the “free Katie” shirts… oy.

- Tina on July 1st, 2006

Just because it’s written here doesn’t make it so.

- Carol on July 1st, 2006

Life and Style is not any better than National Enquirer, so anything they print is doubtful. The problem is that Tom has been acting kind of crazy so people tend to believe any negative story that comes out.

- j on July 1st, 2006

Well in Heat magazine this week, it said that Katie’s friends were worried over how fast she was losing weight and how determined she was to get back to her pre-pregnancy weight; it also said that Tom was worried about her and hired a dietician to discuss it with Katie. So who knows what the truth is!

- Hannah on July 1st, 2006

forget the post-pregnancy weight, where is the post pregnancy baby?!?

- Lienne on July 1st, 2006

While I do indeed think Tom is absolutely insane, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes when I so much as read the first sentence. I highly doubt the truth in this one.

- Jessi on July 1st, 2006

Oh please, just another reason to jump on the ‘lets bash TC bandwagon’. We have seen pictures of KH since Suri and she doesnt seem to be losing any weight drastically, gradually as a matter of fact. Kh has always been an active person, who loves working out. She’s said that in many of her interviews. The woman is an actress who has everybody to her disposal, including trainers, nutritionists, the works. Its not that hard to believe that she would want to lose the weight for her wedding, Life and Style just wanted to add the TC bit because they know people will jump down his throat as usual.

Life and Style has no reputation and they’re even worst then the National Enquirer.

- mystique on July 1st, 2006

^ 100% agreed. Well said mystique.

- gargoylegurl on July 1st, 2006

Has it occured to anyone that like the “rules” of silent birth and such there may be rules on how long the infant need to be kept inside and away from ppl??
O don’t know but if she does exist (and really why walk around looking like a kangaroo for nothing) this could explain why she hasnt been seen…
Or another thought look at Britney spears Maybe if the earlier rumours about Katie having some postpartum depression are tru then she is scared the public will pick apart her every move..

- Crystal on July 1st, 2006

One More thing “Hello” Katie was a bean pole before getting Pregnant and probably has quite a metabolism
so i think even if she still has a bit of a baby pouch she will be JUST FINE
Everyone is so eager to bash the celebrities…

- Crystal on July 1st, 2006

you’re a bunch of moronic sheeps!

some women here deserve to be locked up for being so glib.

- Alice on July 2nd, 2006

Does ANYONE really believe that a “friend” said this??! OY! I’ve got a bridge to sell…..
