Mila Kunis says weight loss secrets are 'breastfeeding workouts,' healthy diet - Examiner.com

Mila Kunis credited 'breastfeeding workouts' and a healthy diet for her dramatic weight loss just two months after giving birth to daughter Wyatt. Kunis said breastfeeding is the best workout for dropping those pregnancy pounds fast.

'Breastfeeding's a great workout!' Mila told Craig Ferguson on the Dec. 10 episode of 'The Late Late Show' (see video).

Kunis, 31, looked super-slim in a form-fitting sleeveless black mini-dress that accentuated her tiny waist. Mila isn't the only celebrity who credits breastfeeding for her rapid post-baby weight loss.

Scarlett Johansson, a former vegan, recently said breastfeeding helped her slim down quickly after she gave birth in September 2014. Breastfeeding can burn 300 to 500 calories a day.

Similarly, Kristin Cavallari lost 20 pounds less than two months after giving birth to her second son by breastfeeding and following a low carb Paleo-style diet, Celebrity Health reported.

Low carb diets such as the ketogenic, Paleo and Atkins diets fuel rapid weight loss by forcing the body to burn fat in a metabolic state called ketosis, said obesity expert Dr. Eric Westman, co-author of Keto Clarity.

Kunis said she's enjoying motherhood and hasn't gotten too tired so far. Mila has been following a healthy diet, and fortunately, she prefers eating healthy foods over junk. Before getting pregnant, Mila stayed fit by doing Pilates workouts and following a portion-controlled diet.

'I seem to eat a lot, so that kind of keeps me going through the day,' said Kunis, who's engaged to Ashton Kutcher. 'I do love to eat healthy.'

Kutcher has praised Kunis for being a great mom. 'The most amazing thing about having a baby is my partner, Mila,' Kutcher said on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. 'She's the greatest mom.

Ashton added: 'I go to work every day and I come home and she's like perfect. It just seems like everything went amazing. And I know that something probably didn't go amazing, but she never tells. She's incredible.'

Mila previously said she'll cut back on acting after she has children, saying she doesn't want to be a harried working mom who's constantly traveling, but wants to be around for her kids. Kunis said her parents both worked full-time when she was a child, and she doesn't want that experience for her own children.
