Busy Philipps discusses pregnancy weight gain
Due with her baby girl in July, Busy Philipps joked with People magazine about her rapid weight gain in the earlier stages of the pregnancy — the 28-year-old actress shared that she owes it all to milk shakes!
The whole thing’s shot. I wanted strawberry milk shakes like nobody’s business. I gained 15 pounds in three weeks. [To lose the weight,] I’m gonna work hard. I’m not just gonna say it fell off from breastfeeding!

She looks great and I think it’s nice to hear her being honest about pregnancy weight. My sis gained 80 pounds with her first child, my niece was a big healthy baby close to 10 lbs. Afterwards it took my sister about a year to lose it and she still has extra 10 pounds to go. She looks amazing now and she totally enjoyed her pregnancy, indulging in everything she wanted. She lost the weight by exercising and watching her diet. Breastfeeding does help, but not totally especially after you gain a lot of weight. I think it works for women that don’t gain that much weight during their pregnancy IMO. Anyways, I’m very happy for Busy and I love that dress she’s wearing.
