Julia Roberts is eager for her Valentine's Day co-star Jennifer Garner to regain a few Alias-era curves.
"You are quite slim," Roberts, 42, joked to Garner at the Beverly Hills press conference for their romantic comedy, in theaters Feb. 12.
"I just finished nursing," replied Garner, 37 -- who welcomed daughter Seraphina in January 2009. "I'll soon plump up again."

Quipped Roberts, "We'll stay tuned for that."
Garner also poked fun about falling in love with her husband of four years, Ben Affleck. 37.
"Somewhere around the second kid I thought, 'This is really turning into something!'" she said.

The busy parents (who are also raising Violet, 4) squeeze in romantic moments whenever they can, Garner said.

"You change the definition of romance," she said. "Romance is romance, but in addition, romance can just be breakfast over the tops of heads and just getting through the day. You've got to find a way make that romantic."
Tell Us What You Think
29Hey anon, I agree how sad that a guy would stay home and take care of his kids, what is he thinking?? If he only remembered to be shallow and all about himself and his looks, his kids could grow up to be messed up brats too.
She looks beautiful! Julia's just jealous. She's really starting to look more and more like a horse a s she ages.
BEAUTIFUL- FAKE KHATE GOSSELIN SHOULD KISS HER FEET!
I used to like Julia but not sure what's gotten into her lately...cursing, running her mouth like some unruly teenager...maybe she thinks she's being funny but it's not coming across like that at all...sounds more like old and bitter.
Jennifer looks stunning. Period.
I know breast feeding is good for your baby, but why would you feed until your child turns 1 by then teeth appear, ouch!!!.
A GIRL DIED IN 1993, A MAN BURIED HER IN HER OWN home when she was still alive. The murderer chanted, "Toma sota balcu" as he buried her. Now that you have read the chant, you will meet this little girl. In the middle of the night she will stand at the side of your bed starring straight int your eyes. She will suffocate you like she was suffocated. This story is sadly true. If you post this 5 differnt times she will not bother you
I weigh 10lbs less than I did when I got pregnant. Nursing definitely has attributed to my weight loss, everyone is different people!
It's her body whether thin or fuller figured. People need to mind their own business and stop asking rude questions.
I nursed my son for 11 months and lost a TON of weight. I gained 17lbs during pregnancy but lost 34lbs within 3 months- some people just burn weight quickly. Now a year after I stopped nursing my son I've gained some lbs back a gotten to a healthy weight. All of our bodies function differently.
Julia's "quips" (which I understand to mean she was trying to be "funny") come off sounding pretty passive-aggressive. Didn't Julia herself used to be quite "slim?" (By most standards, she still is!) She sounds kind of jealous of Jen's post-baby bod!
BREASTFEEDING KEPT ME FROM LOSING ALL THE BABY WEIGHT...I KNOW THIS BECAUSE AS SOON AS I STOPPED I WENT BACK TO NORMAL...I DONT GET HOW YOU GET RAIL THIN FROM BREASTFEEDING?
I totally agree with anonymous8. My sentiments exactly.
I'm glad she thinks she's too thin - she is looking pretty ragged. Too thin is just as bad as too fat. And not everyone CAN breastfeed - so don't get on your high horse about it.
Seems like Jennifer and Ben are realists. Eventhough they are movie stars they have the same pressures as the rest of us as raising kids and trying to have a minute or 2 of romance in a hectic life. Hope they last forever and they raise happy children. All the best to Jen Ben their 2 daughters.
Its great that she breast fed all the way up to one! It makes me sad when mothers don't breastfeed for very long or not at all. .And i am sure she is not 'just breastfeeding' to stay skinny she probably eats very healthy and works out hard. Plus, if your in great shape before the baby its way easier for your body to bounce back after. Looking great Jen!
To Anon @February 03, 2010 - 2:01pm, how do u know that it is the truth.? Have u proven it?
You don't have to eat an extra 500 calories to MAKE breastmilk... breastfeeding just gives you an extra 500 calories to take in. That's how so many women lose weight. It's difficult to eat an extra 500 calories a day when you're eating a normal diet. So just because it didn't work for you Jonathan, doesn't mean it doesn't work. I lost all my baby weight with both of my children within a matter of weeks due to breast feeding and being active. So nice try... quit lying to yourself and everyone else.
Go to HELL Stella! Children don't deserve those comments!
Give your girls alpho, they are dogs anyway!
