(Cover) - EN Star Style - Jennifer Lopez says she tries hard to resist her kids sweets in order to maintain her svelte figure.

The singer-and-actress is famed for her enviable curves and stunning good looks. The star has three-year-old twins Max and Emme with her husband Marc Anthony, and says that since giving birth, her naturally slim body takes more work to maintain.

The 41-year-old has to try hard to not give into sharing her kids sweets and chocolates which are always lying around.

"After giving birth, the body changes. You recover less easily, the excess weight is immediately visible, so you have to be careful. And at home, there are all the candies for the kids, so you have to resist, she said in an interview with the French edition of Elle magazine.

Jennifer also avoids overly salty treats. However, she considers herself lucky to be able to eat carbohydrates with ease.

Maybe its because I grew up eating lots of rice and bread so carbohydrates dont make me gain weight. But I am very careful with the sugar, and salt, she added. (C) Cover Media
