.Heidi Klum says you need to be realistic when losing baby weight

“I always think, 'Look at how people were before they were pregnant,'" Klum, 34, says in June's Marie Claire. “If you were a toned, healthy, energetic person, most likely you will be like that again."

"A lot of people come to me, and they’re like, ‘Will I look like you after I have the baby?’" she added. "And I say, ‘Well, how were you before?’" she says. "You can’t kid yourself.”

"I always wanted to be a mom," says Klum. "At Thanksgiving, I have my parents there, I have screaming kids, I have a big fat turkey - 18 pounds - sitting in the middle; legs are being ripped off that thing, you know what I mean? There’s life in the house.

"I don’t want to be wondering about how skinny I am, wondering what I’m going to eat because I don’t want to gain and I want to look hot and young, always and forever," she adds.
