Chrissy Teigen reveals how celebrities lose weight so quickly after pregnancy but admits it's not normal

Chrissy Teigen got "super dark" after giving birth.

The 'Lip Sync Battle' star thinks she was "slightly cursed" by having a "great pregnancy" when expecting her and husband John Legend's daughter Luna, seven months, because she experienced a sudden dip in mood as her hormones began to change.

And Chrissy thinks it is important for people to speak openly about postpartum depression.

She said: "I think a lot of the mood stuff that happens afterwards isn't really talked about, whether it's postpartum depression or really just, for me, some days, I wouldn't know how to cope with work and juggle things and still have time for a husband and a life.

"And that was really tough for me, and I think just the mere act of losing those endorphins, I think I was slightly cursed by having such a great pregnancy and being so happy and having so much energy, that just the decline of all those endorphins, and all the prenatals and everything I was on and how healthy I was, naturally made my mood change. There were periods where you get super dark."

Chrissy thinks mothers have unrealistic expectations about getting back into shape after giving birth because of women in the public eye, but the brunette beauty insists it is easier for famous people as they have so much help and support on hand.

She told Today: "Anyone in the public eye, we have all the help we could ever need to be able to shed everything.

"So I think people get this jaded sensation that everybody's losing it so quickly, but we just happen to be the ones who are out there.
