Most Hollywood actresses try to get rid of the baby weight as soon as possible to get back down to their svelte bodies, but for her role in Terminator, Bryce Dallas Howard was encouraged to keep the baby weight on.
Shortly after giving birth to her son Theo, now 2, Bryce Dallas Howard got a call to star in the new Terminator Salvation movie. She let the director know that she was not in the best shape and that she just had a baby, but he let her know that it was actually an advantage and not to lose the weight. See, Bryce plays the wife of John Connor in the movie, who is 8 months pregnant in the movie.
While filming the movie though, Bryce, who is the daughter of Ron Howard, naturally started to lose weight, and the director just couldn’t have that. She said, “McG [the director] was throwing cookies at me the whole time, ‘You’re still eight months pregnant [in the film]! Be careful! Continuity!’ ”
Since then, Bryce has managed to lose all the baby weight due to “good old-fashioned diet and exercise, and homeopathy to help me get my hormones back in shape.”
She showed off her great body at the Terminator Salvation premiere with a tight-body hugging Mario Schwab dress. You could tell that she wasn’t eating cookies anymore!

The Supreme Court trial jury heard on the opening day how the Indian-born parents knew Gloria was suffering from eczema on her face, arms, legs and torso at four months. However they failed to follow the advice of doctors who referred her to a dermatologist.
The jurors heard that by the time Baby Gloria was six months old, the eczema had begun weeping and her clothing and nappies would stick to her skin and tear whenever her parents changed her.
Mark Tedeschi QC the Crown prosecutor said the baby girl’s skin began to peel off, allowing infections to enter her bloodstream.
Mr Tedeschi said that in the last five months of her life, Gloria was subjected to repeated infections which “placed a great deal of stress on her body,”
“She wasn’t able to get sufficient nutrition to fight off infections and to grow.”
Gloria died from septicemia in May of 2002, weighing just 5.3kg - well below the third percentile for her age.
The trial, before Justice Johnson, continues.
