Bethenny Defends her Speedy Post-Baby Slimdown

"I didn't go on a crash diet," the Skinnygirl says.

By Shallon Lester


No one should be surprised that self-proclaimed Skinnygirl Bethenny Frankel was back to her svelte self less than a month after giving birth to baby Bryn. But was dropping 30 pounds of baby weight in just three weeks healthy or another crash diet in action?

"I didn't go on a crash diet, which is what most people do when they have a baby," the Bethenny Ever After tells RadarOnline. "It doesn't work... they beat themselves up... they start the process all over again... they start eating more, and now they're six months in and they're in a bad place.

"I was just like healthy before, during, and after and I think it's a great message to say to people you don't have to get all wound up about it," Bethenny continues. "You don't have to binge while you're pregnant and you don't have to crash diet when you're not."

Bethenny and her post-baby bod return next week when Bethenny Ever After premieres on Monday.

What do you think? Did Bethenny take a healthy route to her post-baby weight, or is 30 lbs too much for anyone to safely shed in three weeks? Start a Tweet Battle and make your case.
