Liv was looking very summery in her fashionable floral dress as she stepped out of her West Village town house this week. She headed over to the Free Arts Benefit which raises money to bring art to abused and neglected children. Liv has opened up in the past regarding a healthy weight and now she's saying that hibernating isn't the best thing for a new mom, especially one who wants to lose weight. She tells Britain's You magazine all about her personal battle with the baby bulge. Here's more:
"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.' "
Once focused on taking action, "I did a million different things," she says. "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."
Colonics and fasting?! Those are some pretty drastic measures. She's looking good now but hopefully she's on a more healthy diet and exercise regimen! To check out more pics just read more

she looks good.. and ya I know all about wanting more and more sweets after you have your kids.. ONe thing I liked about breastfeeding was.. IT MADE YOUR BOOBS HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY FOR BIG TITTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1she looks perfect already and doesnt need to lose weight
2She looks lovely, as usual. It's insane the things we do to try and remain slim. After my daughter, I went on a grape juice and jello diet. For almost a year that was all I ate. I was thin, but friggin miserable!
3She looks great, but I hate her legs. They look about 20 years older than she is.
4She looks Fabulous.
5She always looks so lovely and healthy. Poor thing, I feel for these celebrities that get their pics taken and get ripped apart by the tabloids and people in general. I'm glad I'm not under the microscope like these people.
6@ohilovemybabies your avatar scares me LOL
7Breastfeeding never helps me lose weight either. It just makes me more hungry.
8oh she's pretty!! i love her hair. she was beautiful before the baby and even more now.
9She looks wonderful and she should keep doing what she's doing.
10LOL MATHIE!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!and yes canthelp breastfeeding made me so hungry!!!!
11dang
12i guess i'd also freak out if some random photographer took my picture....ANYTIME!
lol
I think the colonics and fasting (fancy name for anorexia) are a bit extreme. She looks gorgeous at any weight!
"Party like a rock star, pound like a porn star, play like an all star!"
13She Looks great as She is! I don't think She needs to lose weight. Liv is Beautiful.
14she is absolutely gorgeous
15she looks good 2 me
16Wow she looks really skinny. I'm kinda surprised (and a little disappointed) that she would go to those measures. She looks great, though!
17Liv can do no wrong in my eyes, gorgeous!
18She looks great
19Didn't she just tell a magazine that all she did was run around and stopped obsessing over her food, and the baby weight just fell off?
20Liv looks gorgeous.
21Her legs look a little odd, but maybe its the pose + heels .? I like her ..she does not need to loose more weight
22HAHA ohilovemybabies, that's so true! I can't wait to have kids for the boobies. (oh, and the kids, too)
I think Liv looks gorgeuous, and even when she was heavier I really appreciated that she didn't jump on the get thin fast bandwagon after having babies. I don't understand how the stars get so thin so fast after having kids. It just seems like a bad example.
And anyway, he hair is so adorable here.
23Liv is A Pretty Lady!
24the bad thing about having the boobies after the babies, the babies are not the only one wanting those boobies..
25i like her so much better now that she is a mom
26Sometimes the pressure is a good motivation, and sometimes - vice versa.
27The hair does not suit her face shape. It makes it very long. As for the dress, miss prim, not very exciting. She's a beautiful girl but this just shows you a pretty girl can still go wrong. She could look much nicer.
28She looks great! But colonics and fasting...?
29Colonics are great tisane. It doesn't help with weight lost though (cause you'll only lose water not fat) but I'm also a fan. It helps you to focus better. Fasting..I don't know. I think you might as well exercise and eat right.
30How about she work on a nice tan.
..If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
31if you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night..
yeah , she needs a tan ! but still pretty ...
32Kinda sad that so much focus is put on new moms about losing weight.
33She's so beautiful. She doesn't have to be a size "0" either. There is hope yet!
34shes so elegant i lv liv
35She looks good! Although the colonics and fasting sounds horrible!
36She looks amazing! I hope I look that good after I have a child.
