Aguilera praises breastfeeding for post-baby bodyNew mum Christina
Aguilera says her slimline post-baby figure is down to breastfeeding. The
Dirrty singer - who gave birth to son Max Liron, her first baby with husband Jordan
Bratman, two months ago - insists feeding hungry Max is "like a workout in itself".
She told US TV show Access Hollywood: "I think they say that when you're
breastfeeding, you know, your weight kind of slims down. It's a little easier.
It's like a workout within itself. "It's very tiring actually and
you find yourself snacking more often." Christina isn't the only celebrity
to have reclaimed their pre-pregnancy figure through nursing. King Kong star Naomi
Watts - who has an eight-month-old son Alexander with fiancé Liev Schreiber -
shaped up by working out, but breastfeeding also helped her shed the excess pounds.
She revealed: "Three weeks before we started filming my new movie 'The
International' I decided that I better get into changing my body back again. "They
gave me a trainer and it was very effective and also breastfeeding. That's how
you drop weight. Even though you're just eating all the time he is eating too."
