Padma Lakshmi’s pregnancy rituals
When it comes to her pregnancy, there are some… let’s just say interesting… rituals that Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi has been indulging in.
“I have to keep my belly really lubricated,” she said Monday during a brunch in New York City to champion Reebok’s line of Pink Ribbon products.“Every morning, there’s a buttering ceremony after I get out of the shower. It’s really like basting a turkey with body butter.”
She also spoke of her pregnancy diet, saying, “Many people could say I ate for two before I was pregnant. It’s just that my body is catching up with my appetite now.”
“I am as omnivorous as it’s possible to be. I always say there’s nothing I won’t eat and nothing I won’t wear,” she continued.
We’re glad to hear she’s not concerned about her weight during pregnancy!
