Move over Jennifer Hudson! Jessica Simpson is the new celebrity spokeswoman for Weight Watchers.

Why Jessica Simpson? Because God forbid a new mothers first order of business be to bond with her baby. She has weight to lose and fast!

Its terrible the amount of pressure placed on celebrity mothers and, by extension, non-celebrity mothers to lose baby weight as quickly as possible as soon as they leave the hospital.

Worse, are the celebrities that face the pressure themselves and then turn around and cover magazines promoting their weight loss as an even prouder moment than birthing a healthy baby.

Even Queen Bey has completely fed into this nonsense. She made headlines after telling her fans at a concert that she lost 60 pounds in five months by running on a treadmill and eating lettuce. I hope she was only kidding because that is ridiculous, especially since she is (or was?) breastfeeding.

New mom, actress and author Tia Mowry says that she was encouraged to seek surgery to help her lose her baby weight. At a book signing in DC, she told BellyItchBlog.

Money was being thrown at me to do surgeries and I said no, I want to do it the right way because I know there are moms out there who can relate.

I lost 5 lbs a month which is what your OB/GYN suggest you to do, I would work out 3 times out of the week because moms, who are working moms, who want to spend time with their baby, dont have time to be in the gym 2 hours a day.

And why should they? Its one thing if a person had a baby a decade ago and is still calling the extra poundage post-baby weight, but we really need to give these brand new moms a break.

Studies have shown that most mothers return to their pre-pregnancy weight just a year after giving birth.So why glorify someone who has dropped the weight in five weeks as though that is something to be proud of and aspire toward? Its unrealistic at best and dangerous at worst.
