Jessica Simpson is struggling to lose her baby weight.

The 32-year-old singer gave birth to her daughter Maxwell Drew Johnson on May 1 and admitted she gorged on calorific treats during the pregnancy, which lead to her piling on the pounds.

She told USA Today: "I let myself indulge in everything I wanted because it was the first time I was ever pregnant, and I wanted to enjoy it.

"I didn't know [the weight] didn't all come off with the baby.”

Simpson has embarked on an exercise regime but the curvy star revealed her “boobs are way too big to run at this point”.

However, Simpson insisted she wants to show people that it’s not easy to bounce back after having a baby and is determined to lose weight in a healthy way.

The star – who is engaged to former NFL player Eric Johnson – explained: “My body is not bouncing back like a supermodel. I'm just your everyday woman who is trying to feel good and be healthy for her daughter, her fiancé and herself."
