Though health experts constantly warn on the dangers of losing a lot of weight very quickly, especially in the case of new moms, celebrities still manage to get away with it. They claim to do so in a very healthy way, by eating right and working out more and, truth be told, they do make a solid case. Sarah Michelle Gellar is the latest female star to bounce back to shape after giving birth.

In her case, though, it seems she’s lost more weight than she gained while pregnant, unveiling an apparently slimmer body over the weekend, the Daily Mail points out. Sarah has never been on the flimsy, frail side, being known both on and off screen for her toned yet curvy body. Photos taken of her throughout her pregnancy showed that she gained some weight – and it’s all now vanished. And then some.

“There was little evidence of the kick-boxing character the program’s followers adored as the 33-year-old left a beauty salon in Los Angeles at the end of last week. Just nine months after the birth of her first child Charlotte Grace, the actress appeared to be thinner than she was pre-pregnancy. Gellar – who is married to 24 actor Freddie Prinze Jr. – wore a strapless printed silk dress which revealed her bony chest and deflated bust,” the Mail says, hinting that Gellar was almost unrecognizable on her recent outing.

“With her eyes hid behind oversized sunglasses, the star was impeccably groomed, teaming the black, pink and white number with an oatmeal-colored cardigan and tan peep-toe heels. However, perhaps the stresses of being a first-time mother have taken their toll. As well as tending to baby Charlotte, the actress has continued to work since giving birth,” the same publication goes on to say.

As also noted above, Sarah Michelle Gellar must be one of the very few actresses never to leave room for speculation on her weight or health. She’s always taken good care of herself and got plenty of exercises to ensure she stayed healthy – so it could very well be that whatever weight she lost now, she lost because of her hectic schedule, as the Mail suggests.
