Liv Tyler talks about losing those post-pregnancy pounds

Sounds like it wasn't easy. Frankly, though we don't have kids, we think most new moms are lying when they say it is easy. Good for Liv for being honest! "I was not one of those women who just dropped pounds instantly when I was breastfeeding. Actually, I got so homely I was ravenous for things like doughnuts and cakes. I can remember walking down the street one day – I was going to the nail salon – when ... a photographer took my picture," she recalls. "I was wearing a very unflattering shirt that I had worn when I was pregnant and a pair of sweat pants, and when the picture appeared in a magazine they ran a caption asking if I was pregnant again. When I saw it I said, 'I think the holiday is over.' I did a million different things. I would be on a strict protein diet and then a raw diet, and then I would do colonics and fasting. And I did Pilates, yoga and working out with my trainer."
