With acting roles and concert appearances on the line, famous moms are required to get back into shape much faster than their non-famous counterparts. This list is dedicated to 10 celebrity mommies who did what they had to do and "snapped back" into shape, in the first few weeks or months after birth.

10 Heidi Klum

Supermodel Heidi Klum was back on the runway a mere five weeks after going into labor with her fourth child back in 2009. Most mothers aren't even fully healed yet until the six-week point, but Klum had already been pumping the iron for weeks.

The show that demanded such a swift body transformation was the 2009 Victoria Secret's Fashion show. Heidi mostly relied on a personal trainer, who had her running on the treadmill and walking up and down the driveway, to drop her baby weight.

9 Kenya Moore

Kenya Moore, a reality star and former Miss USA winner, had her first child when she was in her mid-forties. It's harder to conceive naturally at that age, so she went the IVF route. Her first child, Brooklyn Daly, was born in November 2018. Just a few weeks later, Kenya was flaunting her slimmer figure on Instagram. She posted herself in workout gear and included the hashtag, #TheSnapBackIsReal. Kenya also mentioned that she had not yet worked out, so she might just have good genes to thank for her weight loss.

8 Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow is an Academy Award-winning actress and health enthusiast. When she's not gracing the big screen, she's sharing her health and fitness advice on Goop. If anyone knows how to drop baby weight fast, it's her.

This meant dance rehearsals all day and Soul Cycle at night to shed her extra weight. On top of that, Beyoncé also went vegan and cut out carbs and alcohol. Her extreme diet paid off because she turned many heads with her post-baby body.
