It doesn’t look like she’s lost all of the baby weight yet! However, she only gave birth in January… she looks great nonetheless.

She’s still got a little baby weight to lose but I think she looks pretty good, considering…
She looks great
WHOAH, that first picture is unflattering. But in the side pictures her dress and figure look great. The only problem I have with her is that she signed on to do that awful movie!
She looks huge!!! She had her baby in Jan. That was almost 5 months ago! She def didn’t lose any of the baby weight yet. Her face looks great, but that is it.
she looks Ok. Honestly, she could have picked a more flattering dress.
Dear Mel: I hope that someday you become pregnant with 9 children, blow up to 800 pounds, and are not able to lose any of the baby weight no matter how hard you try. “She had her baby in Jan. That was almost 5 months ago!” What are you, some sort of postpregnancy nazi? Stupid little fool.
Wow I think she looks fantastic. Classic and understated outfit. Very pretty lady. Well done to her. She hasn’t lost all of the weight but I’m confident that she will.
plus it has been only 3 months
Her face and all still look a little full, though she still is a gorgeous lady.
I’m loving Jennifer and her curves and the fact she and Ben are looking after their kids the proper way and she’s obviously not abusing her body to make herself skinny in a stupidly quick ammount of time – BUT, have you seen how photoshopped the picture of her on the ‘Ghosts of girlfriends past’ poster? OMG. Not her fault obviously, but it’s sick how skinny they’ve made her. What’s wrong with her there?
Unless the film was made pre-pregnancy… oh well. Still, they’ve made her unnaturally thin in the poster.
Rubyx4….I second that. mels a biatch
I agree Ruby.
I think she looks good. That’s just a horribly unflattering dress.
She looks great and normal for just having a baby not long ago. She looks great in the 2nd and 3rd pics, and in the rest, you can tell that the dress isn’t just that flattering.
Ya I would think she would need some more time to loose the rest of the weight. She has an adorable face and lovely skin!
her face and hair look great!
she looks a looot more feminine like this
I think it is great she has not given in to this pressure in the media for women to become ridiculously thin 2-3 months after giving birth. It is just crazy to think a woman can and should be pre-pregnancy weight in such a short amount of time. Plus, she is 37 years old, not in her 20’s which makes it even harder. I think she looks great as she is, having kids or not, her figure is beautiful!
I agree “RubyRubyRubyRuby”, mel you idiot!
I think jennifer looks great, and is not huge! I hate how everyone expects celebs to lose their baby weight so quickly. I mean they have just had a baby I think looking after the baby is wayyy more important than losing a few pounds!
Jshe will lose the weight in her own time and she is naturally skinny anyway.
oh come on – she looks fantastic! perhaps slightly larger than she was before but that is to be expected. it takes a lot longer than that to lose baby weight healthily and I bet she has a perfectly heathly bmi already. a lot of girls look a hell of a lot heavier than that who are younger and pre-babies. some of you guys have been reading far too many gossip mags telling you to be thin (notice the skinny stars are always the ones single – go figure)
I had my baby in Dec. and still have 17 lbs to lose. I’m just having fun w/the baby and not spending 7 days a week in the gym anymore–so Jen makes me feel better. She looks great and is a very cool person.
I actually think her face looks better fuller. UK ELLE, I was at the scand found myself cringing every time her face appeared onscreen. Her cheekbones were very hollow; she looked old and gaunt. The only redeeming quality were her nice lips. Also, when she had this navy dress on (in scenes that took place at the mansion), you could see her bottom is heavier despite her being very fit and athletic.
If anyone’s planning on catching this movie, be forewarned it’s cheesy and awkward. I saw no chemistry between her and Matt’s characters. I jsut didn’t find it funny. Unless you’re a fan of either stars, save your cash and get a bootleg version
Interesting and useful info – thanks for informing everyone. Matt
LOL @ RubyRubyRubyRuby — right on! This woman looks gorgeous.
It’s only been about 3 months so she gets a pass on the extra baby weight she’s holding onto, but that dress is so bad. It actually makes it look like she is still pregnant.
she looks like a beautiful, new mother. weight-wise: all in good time; she’ll get there!
no one could put it better than gfy:
Listen, the dress? It’s boring. But J.Gar had a baby in, what, early January? And it’s now late April, and she’s losing the weight healthily and at her own pace. Most self-congratulatory head-cases in this town would have been one-woman gun shows, ripped to the gills, by March — and then done a magazine cover about how it took TWO WHOLE MONTHS to drop the weight by working out six times a day, starting a week after the birth, and eating really satisfying palm-sized pieces of fish with lemon juice and a piece of lettuce.
Garner, conversely, looks great here — but she also looks regular. She’s clearly letting it come off the normal way and at the normal rate, and isn’t too concerned about remaining housebound in a caftan until she’s 90 lbs of muscle. It’s just nice to see that kind of an approach to celebrity pregnancy at a time when everyone else decides the inspirational stories involve the likes of Dancing With The Stars’ Samantha Harris, who bragged in Us about how she only gained 20 lbs and lost it with, like, one giant sneeze about two weeks after she popped out the baby.
She is still breastfeeding that is obvious. She is doing what is best for her baby and with some women its hard to lose that last 5-10 pounds while breastfeeding, your body holds on to the weight for the baby. I think she looks great and yes hasn’t lost all her weight but she will so is just enjoying taking care of her baby!
because when you become a mother, the most important thing in the world is to lose your baby fat.
come off it mel.
she looks beautiful and give her a break, people! she’s 37 and this is her 2nd baby. she’s just losing it the baby weight slowly and sensibly.
love her, but the dress is unflattering.
Her face looks better with a little more weight on. When she starts losing weight her face becomes to look a little bit gaunt.
She looks beautiful and happy.
What the heck mel, you expect all mothers to be like Tori Spelling? Who within months lost ALL the baby weight plus an extra 20-30 pounds??
This is the real world, and I think Jennifer looks like a happy, healthy, glowing new mother should. I think the only big part of her is her boobs, which is completely normal. I am happy Jennifer didn’t do what most celebrities try to do… try to loose all the baby weight at an alarming speed, as if its a race or competition. Its not healthy. I know Jennifer’s body will get back to how it used to be… not that I see anything wrong with it now!
Wow for Hollywood standards she is heavy! Notice I said Hollywood standards not everyday normal people who don’t have personal trainers and chefs.
At the people defending her post baby weight.. come on! It’s been months, she’s rich, can afford trainers/cooks/nutritionist and all that jazz but is still big. It’s laziness and lots of junk food! I myself have a child and lost the weight in about a month and a half and that was without even trying.
elle i agree 100%!!! BOGUS expectations!!!shouldnt they be focused on their KIDS not their bodies?!
she is gorgeous all the time! she looks so curvy and gorgeous!
i think that she looks feminine and womanly and i love when a new mother looks this way… glowing and full of life! almost makes me jealous and miss that time after having my girls.
actually, i think she has lost more weight than we are able to tell.. that dress isn’t flattering at all from the front, but from the sides you can tell how very apparently tiny she is. i know she prebaby she was itty bitty, and in comparison to her old self- she is carrying a tad more weight.
she is soo cute, i love her
I like that colour on her
I just love Jennifer Garner. The dress, eh whatever, I’m not going to hate. I don’t want to see this movie, but who am I kidding, I will.
admit it people.. she looks awful………………..
She is nursing her baby on the right time…
Get back in shape…any time..later!!
tad harsh
LoLa a lot of women retain post-pregnancy weight for a start hormones are completely out of wack. Second of all for someone nearing on 40 she looks fantastic. So congrats you’re lucky you dropped the weight. But if i were her i would not be preoccupied with my size post-birth rather i would want to concentrate on the well being of my baby and my family.
she kinda resembles rachel mcadams(the notebook) here
Maybe getting super thin is not her number one priority, and why should it be?! I think she looks very beautiful. Plus it’s really not that easy to lose weight fast when you’re almost 40. People can be so damn stupid sometimes!
She does resemble Elle Macpherson. imho
She looks ok in these pictures and she can take whatever time she wants to land at whatever weight she wants—but I saw other pictures of her in shorts from a day earlier—I shudder to think what comments those pictures would have inspired.
Gorgeous and healthy
The dress is really not good. However she looks very womanly and curvy and sexy – I like that. Her face is just so pretty.
Its Jennifer Garner – if she wanted to she would have lost all the baby weight by now. Maybe thats not her priority. Not all new mums have Campari photo shoots to do within a couple of months of having a child!!
It seems kind of mean that people on these comment pages call each other names. Remember when you call people names, it takes one to know one. These comments are just superficial opinions that, in the bigger picture of life, mean nothing. Kind of takes the fun out of it when you have to wonder if you make a comment if someone is going to call you a nasty name!
Losing baby weight is HARD WORK! The second time around it is harder. I gained 65 pounds with both of my pregnancies and was able to lose it both times but the first time took 6 months and the second took an entire year. I think if you have never been in the situation it is harder to relate to how difficult it really is. I have no idea how some of these Hollywood people do it so fast…my guess is they don’t gain all that much to begin with maybe…which is smart! I should have done that!
But LoLa… most women DO have to try to lose the weight. If you didnt even try, then am I safe to assume you didnt eat healthily or exercise? Because that would be ‘not trying’.
I think she’s so pretty and nice! there aren’t many celebrities like that!
she’s pretty and good looking!! (but she could have done with a more flattering dress!)
Jennifer garner has a very pretty face and that’s it, i don’t think she is big, the dress doesn’t suit her, i was never a fan of the body before the baby, or a fan of her acting, but she doesn’t look that bad.
She shouldn’t hide her curves under that horrendious thing, it’s not like she’s obese…. Show uss some proud Jennifer!
Way to go Ruby! Some people are so fixated on looks and appearances that they lose sight of what constitutes real life and what makes for real people. In their defence: I’m guessing that they are still very young and as we all know with age (usually) comes wisdom.
She looks a lot bigger in these pictures compared to normal pap shots I see all the time-where she looks great! Just an unflattering look I think. Not that she looks bad!
Why cant people come on this blog and express themselves without being gang up on? what if someone thinks Jennifer garner is a whale, so what? unless you are Jennifer, honestly, we will reach a stage where nobody will say what they think because of bullies.
I think she looks great, baby weight or not. I’m glad she’s not a stick figure like most celebritards are these days. When it comes to “real life”, she looks a hell of a lot better than the majority of mother’s I see on a daily basis, so she must be doing something right.
I’ve never been a fan of Jen, looks or acting, but she has the cute ‘new mum glow’ in these pics.. sweet
great face. she will always look sweet an soft in the face….she will also loose the weight! she is very talented and got one hot husband…she is not fat like some people say here, she is just not in shape and it’s excusable! can’t just people take a break from obsessing over their weight?
She had a baby not even four months ago. I think it’s great that she takes out time for her body to get back to shape in a normal time and not do some crazy one raisin a day diet like other people.
Although she is heavy, this is the first time that I have thought she looks attractive facially.
She can do no wrong in my eyes. She is just so beautiful and I’ve got to imagine that she would be the very best girlfriend. She looks good for having a baby a couple of months ago, she’ll get back I have faith. She’s busy being a great mom her figure probably is on the back burner.
the problem here isn’t her weight, it’s this hiedous dress. she could have done much better in the wardrobe department. i think JG is fabulous besides and looks amazing to have given birth so recently.
It’s funny how you guys argue about this. It’s cool, though. We are all different. Made different. Act different. Transition happens whenever we want to. It’s just a matter of choice. And for Jen, it’s her life. She will lose those weight whenever she wants to.
dayyyum girlfriends lookin thick as hell!! pretty face tho and a classy lady
Bad bad bad choice in dress.
What a bonehead choice.
While some women lose the baby weight very quickly, without even trying, for most women the following expression applies: “9 months on, 9 months off”.
the side view, makes her look thinner, but she always looks beautiful
mel..i had my son in january and he’s not even 4 months old yet every pregnancy is different..with my daughter i gained 30 lbs and lost it within two months..this time around i gained 60 even tho i was more active and ate healthier (i have no clue what happened lol) anyway i haven’t lost all my baby weight yet it’s harder the second time around and honestly..i probably look better than you. and anyway jennifer garner isn’t really all about being sexy or a model-type she’s like the all-american sweetheart type and she’s cute so who cares if she’s not super skinny!
I hate to say it, but I think she looks rather big here. I myself have two kids, and I lost the weight in 6 weeks. It just sort of came off – I still needed to tone a bit, but by three months I was back to running/working out per usual(and I had 2 c-sections and was BF as well). I think for a celebrity, when it’s their job to look good, she could have worked a little more and picked a more flattering dress. She’s a beautiful woman, though – love her hair and skin.
shes beautiful
She’s heavier than her old “exercise at 5am everyday” body, but she doesn’t look bad. The problem is this awful dress makes her look big, bold and wide. She looks better walking around in torn underwear and jeans…
I think she has a gorgeous face and beautiful skin. This dress is just obviously unflattering.
I dont think she needs to lose any more weight she looks happy and lovely- this weight suits her she looks more womanly.
I don’t think the dress is the most flattering for camouflaging the baby weight, but I think she looks fantastic none the less.
Well, her stylist is Rachel Zoe who can’t work on non skinny women and outside long and flowy dresses…
Seriously, why show those arms and chest? Precisely her weaker points! Anyway, Mrs Affleck could benefit from more structured designs. Probably her legs don’t look that nice but, again, she’s just had a baby.
Yes, it is a matter of wrong choice of dress
Considering how big she was when she was pregnant, I thought she looked huge, she’s lost a lot of weight. She looks really good, something about her mouth when she talks bugs me, but thats beside the point.
She’s not fat! Yes she stll has baby weight… so what? I don’t care if it took you 1-2 months to lose your baby weight. For the average healthy woman who gained the appropriate amount of weight, it usually takes 4-6 months. Many women even retain 10 pounds until they wean, then when their hormones go back to normal they shed the weight pretty fast. For each add’ll child it takes a bit longer. Every woman is different, some women gain very little and lose it within 6 weeks, while others eat right and exercise but put on weight very easily due to hormones. Generally after the lactation hormones clear their system they lose the weight. Please don’t call her lazy… and we all know she is a health food nut, so I do not believe she’s been eating junk. You should be happy she is losing her weight in a healthy manner. When you lose more than 3 lbs a week you are most likely losing muscle, which is not wise. I would hope with a newborn she isn’t spending all her waking hours in the gym. 3-4 days a week is all she needs. Her face and hair look the best I’ve ever seen, her face looks good with the extra weight.
she had a baby jan 6, its been four mnts she looks about 20 pounds over weight Jen has a long way to go,she is really big!
I think it’s the saggy dress that makes her look bigger than she is. In my opinion she looks to be at quite a good weight weight-wise. She is pretty.
She’ll lose it. I gained about 70 pounds with both my kids. Rode horses, exercised through both pregnancies, took about a year to take if off fully. I got pregnant for the second time the week I got to my goal weight from the first. Anyway, it’s hard to lose weight as you get older, for most people. I have to work out 5 times a week to maintain or lose now.
Blame Zoe on the dress. She hates fat girls so she probably thought to cover her up with a friggin caftan.
Plus, Jen is in the middle of having two kids near each other in age, nursing, etc. Give her a break. Still gorgeous.
I’m glad that some of you lost your baby weight quickly, but everyone is different.
She looks great! After having two babies, she still managed to slim down at her age.
she has made me like ben affleck so well done…also amazing how an angke can make someone look horrible
I love the fact that she’s ignoring all the other skinny bitches
and is sticking to her curves.
I’m a fan of the thin-thin look, but I do assume that in the first
few months after giving birth to your child you have better things
to do than working your arse off 24/7 and not eating.
you do want to get to know your child probably.
She looks uncomfortable, but looks good. I am just shocked because I watched electra recently and she does not resemble the character on this pictures.. Ok she had a baby I think that all moms here can understand the nightmare of losing the extra weight…
In all the trailers and publicity for her new film she looks thin and has a great figure but clearly in real life she is a bit bigger. Do they edit her in post production to make her appear thinner or was it filmed way before she gave birth?
she has not lost the baby weight!!!
the baby weight excuse seems kinda lame i mean.. its been like 4 months. … i would say 3 months should be the max to keep the extra weight on.
she will look great within another six months I bet
She might not be back to actress skinny yet, but she look slim and healthy. If only she looked like she felt confident!
Not directed at any particular comment here – but judging some comments here, its not men who drive women to try to look perfect… I think its other women.
she needs to lose a bit more…but she has lost a lot already, because she was very big when was pregnant.
i am not particularly a fan of hers but she looks good here
why do u sugarcoat it..shes NOT looking good,okay?
you insult all the other celebs who are stick thin but one that ISNt doesnt get criticism?
holy moly. the baby weight has gone to her arms!!
