Two months after giving birth, Minnie Driver says she’s “never eaten more food in my life.”
So what’s her secret to getting her post-baby bod?
“I think the breastfeeding is what burns it off,” she told Usmagazine.com Friday at the annual Oxfam party held at Esquire House in Hollywood. “I go for one big long walk with my boy every day. I live in the hills, so it’s kind of up and down. I do some yoga, but I’m not doing a whole bunch yet. I still have a marshmallow tummy.”
She said she doesn’t need to gym.
“I’m just walking very heavy stroller with my baby. My baby weighs 15 pounds so he’s like a weight session.” she said. “Yeah, he’s going to be tall.”
The cutest thing her son has done?
“The smiling and the laughing,” she said. “When I sing, he smiles and he laughs and he sings along.”

Minnie Driver’s son Henry was just born in September, but she’s eager for baby No. 2!
“I’d have another one,” Driver, 38, said on an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show to air Friday (check local listings).
Look back on Us’ baby bump hall of fame!
Driver says the urge recently began to grow.
“I think it only kicks in after you have really forgotten…I’ve only just managed to look at the pictures of the birth…they do make you kind of go…owww…,” Driver explained.
“And then I look at [Henry],” she added. “I want another one of him!”
Plus, Driver says he’s “very easy…he sleeps and smiles as far as I can make out.”
Henry Story Driver, born on Sept. 8 in L.A., weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs., 12 oz. (Driver never released the name of his father.)
“He was a pumpkin for Halloween,” Driver said. “Except it didn’t fit him because he was too big. We had to cut the feet off - he wore orange and black spider socks - but his diaper…I would hold him facing out because on the back there, there was just this huge triangle where his diaper showed because we couldn’t close it.”
DeGeneres replied: “That’s a big baby…that’s too big to be a pumpkin! That’s really the biggest costume you can buy for a baby.”
“He’s filling it,” Driver joked.
DeGeneres handed Driver a onesie in two different sizes that said: “I may be BIG but my Mom is Minnie.”
“We decided to give you a gift because we had heard he was a big baby,” DeGeneres said.

Sorry for not updating.. due to personal reasons and really bad luck I haven’t been able to update around here. It will take me a couple of weeks to get settled again so until then there will be no updates.
When I get back I promise massive updates!
The Riches actress Minnie Driver has clearly wasted no time getting back into shape after welcoming her son Henry in September. Stepping out in Los Angeles for a special exhibition of photographs on Tuesday night, the new mum looked radiant in a short black dress that showed off her enviable post-pregnancy figure.
The London-born star wasn’t the only famous face to have picked out a pretty number for the Vanity Fair Portraits event. London-born actress Mischa Barton arrived for the bash in an eye-catching layered, white-feathered affair, teamed with a silver clutch and heels.
Also opting for white was Joan Collins. The screen veteran, who was accompanied by her husband Percy Gibson, had picked a simple shift topped by a sequinned jacket for the event at the Los Angeles Museum of Art.
The exhibition, which includes 130 vintage prints and photographs dating from 1913 to 2008, features images of contemporary Hollywood stars such as Scarlett Johansson, Helen Mirren and Julia Roberts, alongside classic screen sirens from the past like Greta Garbo.
New mum MINNIE DRIVER’s TV turn as a gypsy con artist is over - THE RICHES has been cancelled.
Driver played wife to Eddie Izzard on two seasons of the acclaimed U.S. drama.
A network spokesperson at FX has confirmed to Entertainment Weekly the show will not be returning for a third season. Flagging ratings are behind the decision.
Driver earned Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for her portrayal of Dahlia Malloy on the show.
