Ah Hollywood.
One minute you’re too fat, the other too thin.
Petite Australian actress Isla Fisher was “terrified” to step back in front of the camera three months after giving birth to her first daughter, Olive, because of her baby weight.
But the onetime Home & Away favourite also had to add about 7.5kg to her frame for her supporting role in The Great Gatsby.
“I gained about 65 pounds (about 30kgs) with my first baby and 70 (about 32kgs) with my second,” the 37-year-old wife of Sacha Baron Cohen tells Fitness magazine in the US.
“I had severe morning sickness both times, so I mostly ate supersize bowls of white pasta with loads of butter and cheese because that was the only thing that took away the nausea.
“I had to shoot Confessions Of A Shopaholic about three months after I gave birth to Olive (in 2007), so the producer, Jerry Bruckheimer, hired a trainer to work with me three times a week.
“That was both inspirational and terrifying because I didn’t want to let the trainer down.
“After I had my second daughter (Elula in 2010) I slowly lost the weight by breast-feeding, hiking (L.A.’s) Runyon Canyon and working with a trainer every couple of weeks.”
Fisher now does yoga five days a week.
Surprised to be cast in The Great Gatsby, Fisher said she was asked by director to curvy up to play the voluptuous Myrtle Wilson.
“(It) mainly manifested itself in my boobs, which was very exciting,” she told the mag.
“Sadly that’s gone now.”
Fisher does not keep scales in the house because she feels it sends the wrong message to her daughters about weight obsession.
