Laila Ali: Son C.J. Has Been a 'Good Big Brother'

When Laila Ali pictured the sibling bond between 2�-year-old son C.J. Muhammad and daughter Sydney J., 11 weeks, the mother-of-two is the first to admit she had her doubts.

Luckily, all of those worries have been put to rest.

?Right now he?s being a little brat because he wants to keep going on the slide, but he loves her,? the former boxer tells PEOPLE at the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation?s A Time for Heroes Picnic on Sunday.

?I was concerned that he was going to be jealous, but he?s not. He loves her to death, and he?s been nothing but a good big brother.?

With both of her children thriving, Ali has turned her attention to other important issues: shedding the pregnancy pounds and regaining her body after baby.

?I have 20 more pounds to go. People always say it?s easy for me because I?m an athlete, but I have to work. I have to eat right, I have to work out, and now I?m working out at home,? she says. ?I have a spin bike, I have a treadmill. I?m running, I?m doing hills, I?m doing sprints ? and 45 to 70 minutes of cardio.?

But while she?s seen some success, Ali ? who is currently breastfeeding ? is being forced to take her time.

?The hardest part for me is taking it slow. You can?t hit it too hard when you?re nursing, and I?m nursing,? she explains.�?I could get it off much faster, but I have to take it slow while I?m nursing. The most I can lose is a pound a half to two pounds a week. I?d probably be doing double that if I weren?t nursing.?
