Post from Babble.

Mothers everywhere were incredibly envious when Bethenny Frankel managed to squeeze back into her skinny jeans just weeks after giving birth to daughter, Bryn. Bethenny gained about 35 pounds while pregnant, but she’s already back to a svelte weight of 118 pounds! It seemed so effortless for her to get her post-baby body back, and we can’t help but wonder what her secrets are for bouncing back so quickly!

Bethenny, of course, mentions that breastfeeding her daughter has definitely helped. Breastfeeding burns about an extra 500 calories per day, so it can help melt extra pounds…if you don’t over indulge!

The Real Housewives of New York star also says that she is eating smaller meals to maintain her figure, but she still gives into cravings, such as chocolate and Mexican food from time to time.
Bethenny also has a great workout routine, practicing yoga and taking surfing lessons. Yoga is great for keeping the body long and lean, and also helps maintain core strength, which I’m sure came in handy considering that she had a C-section. And I’m sure that Frankel works all sorts of muscles while on her surfboard!

One thing is for sure, this celeb mom certainly doesn’t have to worry about losing her reputation as a Skinny Girl!
