Eureka! Ulrika is size 8 again!

IT must be hell being a new mum these days.

As if it wasn't all traumatic enough, they are now almost forced to lose weight in a short space of time, thanks to all the celebrity mothers who are back to a size 8 in three weeks, or so it seems.

Ulrika Jonsson is the latest in a long line which has recently included Victoria Beckham and Davina McCall to diet to the size of a stick insect in record time post-baby.

Forget it. A sensible diet and a spot of deliberate exercising is all that's needed because looking after a new baby is the single biggest fitness routine women have. Stars have personal trainers and are under terrific pressure to shape up quickly and dramatically.

For normal people, moderation and getting there slowly is far more sensible.
