Kourtney Kardashian Hasn't Lost Her Baby Weight, And Isn't In Any Rush To

Many Hollywood moms start their post-baby diets the minute they leave the delivery room. In a town where most new mommies debut hot bods mere weeks after giving birth, you'd think Kourtney Kardashian would be feeling the pressure to drop the 40 pounds she gained during her pregnancy -- fast. Instead, the eldest Kardashian sister is focusing on her 7-week old son, Mason. In the latest issue of "Life & Style," Kourtney admits, "it's been hard to find to find time to workout."

After another magazine photoshopped a post-baby picture of Kourtney to make her appear as though she'd shed all those pregnancy pounds, the reality star set the record straight and revealed she still had a way to go before she has her old body back. "Since having him, I don't care as much what I look like," Kourtney told Life & Style. "I gained weight in my booty, my stomach, my thighs and my arms. Everything got a little bigger for sure. I do want to get back to the way my body was before, but it's definitely not my biggest concern. I feel fine."

In the meantime, Kourtney shared that she's been wearing the Belly Bandit (in the photo, right), a post-pregnancy compression binder, to help her clothes fit better and flatten her stomach.

Tell us what you think: Is it refreshing to hear celebrity get real about losing weight after having a baby? How did you shed post-pregnancy pounds?

It's great that Kourtney doesn't obsess over her weight, but take it from a mother of three, it's now or never. Get your body back before your new body becomes nearly permanent. It's easier now while your skin is still stretched out and waiting to be molded into some kind of shape.

Putting pressure on a mom of a 7 week old baby to loss weight is ridiculous, a new mom should be focusing on being a mom. Who has the time or energy between feeding and diaper changes, not to mention those sleepless nights, to be worrying about working out. I'm not saying to neglect yourself and let yourself go just because your a mom but its ok to wait until life settles into some sort of normality before heading to the gym.

i couldn't find the time to exercise either!! i thought lifting up my 9 lb baby was enough. I did have a belly bandit (even before kourtney made hers) i got one called bamboo and it was really soft and comfortable. it helped support my back & legs and really did help me lose some weight without working out the way i normally would have.

I had a hard time finding time to workout also. Even harder was being away from my baby to go to the gym after working all day! I lost all my baby weight within my maternitiy leave and got my body looking amazing while spending time bonding and playing with my baby. So many of my friends wanted me to tell them how I did it so I developed my own workout program and website! Take a peek! www.HotMommyHappyBaby.com
