As well as looking after her new arrival, Jessica Simpson is also focusing on another time-consuming task – losing her baby weight.

Jessica Simpson, who posted a picture of her post-baby curves last week, hopes shrink to 130 lbs before the end of the year.

The proud mother is adamant she will shed 50 pounds in five months.

Jessica Simpson has signed a $4 million with Weight Watchers to reach her target of 130 lbs.

And she’s enlisted celebrity fitness trainer Harley Pasternak’s and was spotted at his gym in West Hollywood last week.

In addition to her exercise regime, Jessica Simpson is following a strict diet.

Jessica Simpson recently told People magazine that she is eating protein-packed meals and drinking home-mixed juices to help shed pounds.

But in another interview with In Touch magazine, friends say that the star, who is also trying to care for her newborn little girl, is feeling “stressed and overwhelmed”.

Sources told the publication that Jessica Simpson, who weighed a reported 210 lbs at the height of her pregnancy, is also physically exhausted.
