Remember when I told you about Ugly Betty producer Salma Hayek trying to use breastfeeding as a weight loss method? To refresh your memory, a friend of the actress said: “Salma has been pumping and freezing endless amounts of breast milk. When she’s not feeding Valentina, she’s hooked up to an industrial-size breast pump.”

I remember talking to some friends of mine in the medical profession, and they said she was absolutely making a mistake. Breastfeeding is for a specific purpose, and it isn’t weight loss.

Well, Hayek recently appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show, and admits she now believes that breastfeeding does not help with weightloss. She said about breastfeeding, pregnancy and weight loss:

“Yes, and I’m still working on it. I gained a lot of weight, I had gestational diabetes. The pregnancy was really difficult for me. I thought, as soon as this baby is out, I’m just going to lose the weight super fast, because I’m going to breast feed, and everybody tells you that if you breastfeed it’s going to come out like this, it’s a lie! It’s not true.

“Except for a couple of exceptions, the only reason people lose weight like that when they’re breastfeeding, it’s because they’re not eating and they’re breastfeeding, and this is not good for the baby. You know how they tell you it takes nine months to get it, nine months to lose it? There are shortcuts, but it’s not good for the baby. So I’m taking my time. I’ve lost a lot, most of the weight, and I’m very proud of it because it’s been really hard work studying what kind of food to eat that’s healthy for me, healthy for the baby. But I’m still losing even if it’s slow, and I’ve been working out… and the rest is going to go when it’s time to go.”

What she needs to do is hang out with Vanessa Williams.
