Olivia Wilde Shared an Exercise Selfie, and It’s So Relatable
Leave it to Olivia Wilde to make her quest to get back into pre-baby shape totally relatable and equally hilarious. The actress shared a postgym selfie on Instagram, showcasing her crimson color and badass mommy muscles.
“Nothing cooler than a conspicuous locker room selfie but I needed to document the exact shade of holy-f***-magenta my face turns after getting my ass kicked at @tracyandersonmethod,” Wilde captioned a snap of herself flexing her bicep. Her face was free of makeup (that rouge is real), and her workout tank of choice was white — unlike her face, which was a nice shade of maroon. “I’m like a tomato with a human torso that is slowly but surely recovering from popping out a ten pound kiwi.”
The 10-pound kiwi she’s referencing is her and fiancé Jason Sudeikis’s daughter, Daisy Josephine, who was born almost three months ago.
Red or not, Wilde recently got real in an interview with Yahoo Beauty about remaining fit and healthy while pregnant and parenting. “It’s superhard, and certainly for the second child, I think it’s a little harder to stay healthy,” she admitted. “You’re feeding your first kid chicken nuggets and mac and cheese, and it all looks so irresistible.” We totally feel her pain, except those of us who don’t have children but still want the mac ‘n cheese and chicken nuggets … what’s our excuse?
Gym sessions like these were put on hold while she was pregnant with her second child. “Honestly, I’ve been pretty lazy this time around,” she said before giving birth. “You have to be forgiving of yourself and realize you are doing something and working hard building a little human.”
Wilde has always had a really good sense of humor about her changing body. At the peak of her second pregnancy, the Vinyl star took to Instagram to share the name she came up with for her pregnancy style: “old timey circus tent.”
