to want to stuff a big cream cake down all the "celeb yummy mummys"faces[grin]

[ppie]

if i pick up one more magazine to see some z list " celeb" gushing about how they lost their 20 stone of baby fat in just 20 mins after giving birth i will SCREAMMMMMMM. If i had personal trainers , diaticians, personal shoppers and make up artists fawning after me, i could probably scrub up ok. But, heres the clincher! I would rather be spending time kissing cuddlying me little snuggly baba, not spending 3 hours in a gym munching mung beans!!! Im going to go and have some hob nobs( chocky ones)

Mmmmm......cream cakes.......

Totally agree ppie - if there was one expression in the world I could somehow parcel up and set fire to it would be "yummy mummy"

And I speak as someone who put on a stone in the month after giving birth.......

Thats what I just read that got my nickers{ xlarge granny ones} in a twist
My dd1 is 4 and dd2 is 8 months. im still heavier that i was b4 dd1 and yes i would looove to be smaller but isnt having and enjoying your baba much more rewarding and a damm site more fun{grin]
HURRAH FOR WOBBLY JELLY BELLIES

So did I penny pops!, lost the weight put on with dd2 then it was xmas, you know the score!!!

I most certainly do. The whole YM thing is, in my opinion, just yet another media led non concept to make women feel like crap. And there just aren't enough of those are there?

Sorry, radical feminist rant over.

dont forget that a lot of them lost the weight by having a c-section and a tummy tuck while they're there...

also im sure most of them are hgolding it all in with giant support knickers or they are actually aliens - there's no way you can pop back into place within 24 hours

TBH i think most celebrities could do with a cream cake or two...

I shed it all in about 8 weeks but not obsessively, I just didn't have time to eat, plus being left with a newborn didn't make me want to eat either.
I hate how they all pretend it was natural though, Is it fuck!

It makes me but they all look so miserable! I agree, far too busy cuddling, kissing and feeding my new baby to bother with all that nonsense. Who wants to banish all evidence that you were ever pregnant in the first place. I personally love my stretch marks and wobble tum (well not that much but to get it all tucked in and cut off in surgery, no thankyou!!)

Don't buy the magazines.

It's when they then go on to win 'Mum Of the Year' that it really gets on my goat.

But it's their job isn't it? To be beautiful and slim under all circs. I guess I'd be in trouble if I forgot all the skills I needed to earn a living whilst having a baby. I suppose you could look at it like that. And of course you could earn extra money telling everyone how you did it too. Win win!

And, yes, as Callisto says, give up the mags!

My motherwas back into her mini skirts and pvc boots within 2 weeks of giving birth to me. I just assumed that was the norm, boy was I in for a shock

I shed it in about 10 weeks (not on purpose, similar to muggglewump) but because I'd lost it so quickly, my tummy went really saggy and stretchmarks looked awful! How come theirs doesn't? TBH it can't be healthy to lose it so quickly and you're not supposed to do intense excercise so soon after giving birth! Lisa Scott-Lee gets on my nerves, just generally though. She's one of those Z list celebs that goes to the opening of an envelope .

they bug me too - especially that Lisa B recently telling everyone how to run their lives - easy if you have 2 nannies, an au pair, a cleaner, a gardener, a chef, a rich husband etc etc. I suppose some consolation is to be found in the fact that most of them don't seem that happy with their lot and I wonder how strong their bonds with their children are given they don't seem to spend much time with them. And look at KK - she won mum of the year a few years back and seemd to have all those smug qualities but I'm guessing noone would trade places with her now! All that magazine crap should be taken with a pinch of salt I think ...

"Who wants to banish all evidence that you were ever pregnant in the first place."
I would if I'd had that. I have all the evidence I need that I was pregnant in DD. Why would I want stretchmarks or a wobbly tummy if I could get rid of them? Perhaps not with surgery and not days after the birth but in time with exercise then sure, I would have.
I'm well aware I got lucky, or have good genes or whatever but I have a body I love and I don't look like I've had a baby. I'm proud of it.

Well it took me 3 years to lose the weight - but then I do love my grub!!!

I long gave up these magazines, they really are full of mindless crap.

Wouldn't it be nice if they spent the time with their new babies instead of telling the world (via trashy mag) all about it.

It's not just the weight stuff - I wish many of them would just bog off altogether. I mean who are these people and what exactly have they done with their lives apart from sell their stories to cheap magazines. Grrr.

do you think any of them tried to BF?
