Jessica Simpson on Post-Pregnancy Weight Loss: “I’m a Lot More Confident This Time Around”
Jessica Simpson who recently gave birth to baby son, Ace, insists she is more confident about losing the baby weight from her second pregnancy.
“I’m a lot more confident this time around,” she told MomFeeds.“With Maxwell I didn’t think about the weight I was gaining, and the first time I stepped on a scale and looked at the number…I mean, that wasn’t a number I had ever even considered…and I was faced with a pretty serious truth. But since I had already done Weight Watchers, I didn’t put on as much weight with Ace and I just know a lot more now.”
Resuming her duties as a spokesperson for Weight Watchers, the mom-of-two has crafted a plan that fits her schedule while doing the weight loss program.
“With a toddler on the run and an infant to look after,” she continued, “I knew I needed a plan that’s simple and fits into my life, along with the support that’s so important to my success. I know Weight Watchers works, so I got on the plan again.”

My first pregnancy, I was a little on the chunky side to begin with. So I didn’t do much after I had my son and a few months later I was left with about 5-10lbs extra. I wasn’t happy about it but I always just did the bare minimum not to gain more. But I didn’t lose any either.
Weight loss motivation is a state of mind. You get it when you’re ready.
Just before my son turned 4, I saw pictures of myself in Jamaica (bathing suit) and I just decided that I’d had enough. I cut out all unnecessary junk food and alcohol. I still ate desert (small portions) and I still had my wine on the weekend. But overall, I made healthier choices and cut a lot of food out. Once I started seeing results simply from just doing that, I started to run on my treadmill. I lost almost 30lbs in 5 months. I was thin, for the first time ever!
I’ve recently had a second baby. It was depressing to realize that I was back in my fat clothes. But I gave myself time and didn’t put pressure on myself. I waited until my new baby was on a routine and sleeping consistently in the afternoon. (About 4 months old.) Then I started running again. I’m down 10lbs and I have 10 more to go.
Just like Jessica is saying, It’s easier if you’ve done it before and if you know there’s a way that works for you. Having a great partner to support you really helps too. My husband is on board with whatever new foods I want us to eat!
