Gwyneth Paltrow struggled to lose baby weight

Gwyneth Paltrow admits it “wasn’t easy” losing her post-pregnancy pounds. The actress — who’s married to Coldplay rocker Chris Martin and gave birth to the couple’s second child in 2006 — says she found it hard to regain her fabulous figure.

“After my first pregnancy, the weight had come off a little bit better but after the second one it was really stubborn. It was really hanging on,” she said.

“It was not easy and, when I started it, it was by far the hardest thing I have ever done — but I really was seeing results so it motivated me to just work through it.

“Every woman can make time — every woman — and you can do it with your baby in the room.

“There’ve been countless times where I’ve worked out with my kids crawling around all over the place. You just make it work, and if it’s important to you, it’ll be important to them.”
