Cookbook author, model and actress Padma Lakshmi (39) shares some thoughts on baby weight – People Magazine’s got the scoop:

It’s about time TV foodie Padma Lakshmi put on some weight – and it’s all thanks to her coming baby and her healthier attitude about life, she says.

“One of the reasons I think I’ve gained weight pretty quickly during my pregnancy is that I’m not exercising as much as I do normally … I can’t. I’m feeling tired, and I have this business to run,” Lakshmi, 39, tells Page Six Magazine in an interview to run Thursday.

“You hope that with age, what you pay for in gravity, you gain in gravitas. I’m sure my thighs looked better when I was 25, but I think my mind is better today.”
