PALTROW STRUGGLED TO LOSE POST-BABY WEIGHT

Actress GWYNETH PALTROW hated her post-pregnancy figure following the birth of her son MOSES, and struggled for months to rid her body of the extra baby weight.
The Iron Man beauty gave birth to her second child with Coldplay rocker Chris Martin in April 2006, but she admits she faced a hard battle to regain her slender figure after her son was born.
In a candid interview with V magazine, Paltrow reveals, "I didn't mind the big boobs. But I hated the stomach roll, the back fat and the post-pregnant butt. And it was so hard to get rid of. Especially the final 20 pounds (nine kilograms)."
She insists she felt far from the Hollywood beauty she is often pictured as: "I had milk dripping out of my boobs - it (being an actress) seemed like a fairy tale."
And Paltrow confesses her pregnancy cravings for junk food prompted her to ditch her strict macrobiotic diet.
She adds, "I wanted French fries, grilled cheese and yoghurt, so it kind of went out the window. I couldn't look at brown rice - it made me throw up."
