Kerry Washington's Body Is Amazing! 2015 Emmys Reveal Incredible Weight Loss Through Smart ...

Kerry Washington‘s body is amazing! The Scandal star showed off her incredible weight loss at the 2015 Emmy Awards. So what are her diet and exercise secrets?

Washington rocked the red carpet in a silver mesh Marc Jacobs gown. If it looks familiar, that’s because Jacobs just debuted the outfit at his fashion show last week. And the gown certainly came in handy on the sweltering red carpet.

“This was just on the runway two or three days ago — it has a lot of holes in it because it’s mesh,” Washington said after arriving at the 2015 Emmy Awards. “In this weather it’s working well. I feel the breeze in all kinds of places right now.”

Clearly, Kerry Washington’s body has come a long way since she gave birth to a daughter in April 2014. Just a few months later, she was on the cover of Allure magazine and looked incredibly thin. At the time, she credited an organic diet and Pilates workouts for helping her slim down. But she revealed another weight loss secret back in January.

“I’m mostly working 16-hour days and spending a lot of time running after my little girl,” the Scandal star said.

Still, as her daughter has grown, Kerry Washington has had less time to work gorgeous body. But she’s realized that she has to get several workouts in each week in order to feel like herself.

“I try to get [a workout] in so I can be back with my kid early. I have to take care of myself in order to live life the way I want to. It’s important to have rest days,” the actress told Self last month. “But in the long run, if I don’t work out for, like, three days, I feel worse, not better.”

Kerry Washington showed off her amazing body on the cover of Self last month.

But while Kerry Washington looked amazing at the 2015 Emmys, the actress is not obsessing over getting her pre-baby body back. Instead, she just wants to look as good as she can after giving birth.

“A few weeks ago, my manager asked: ‘Do you feel like you’re back? I feel like you’re back,’” Washington continued. “She meant it as a total compliment, but we had this great conversation where I was like, ‘You know what? I try really hard not to use that language, because it’s not about going backward in life.’ I’ve been really focused on not being ‘back’ to anything, but being the best version of myself right now. My body is the site of a miracle now. I don’t want to be pre-miracle.”

Kourtney And Khloe Kardashian's Weight Loss Is Amazing! Instagram Photos Reveal Thin Bodies ...

How safe is Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian’s weight-loss strategy? The stars continue to drop the pounds through waist training. And their latest Instagram photos do show that they have slimmed down. But doctors think this corset-wearing strategy is risky.

Kourtney showed off her latest waist cincher with an Instagram photo on Saturday. She captioned the photo above, “I am pretty much the queen of multitasking. Obsessed with anything where I am doing more than one thing at a time, especially since I skipped the gym today. A little Saturday morning waist cinching and working on my posture while cleaning out my closet.”

This is not the first time Kourtney Kardashian has praised waist training. Back in February, she credited the Waist Gang Society brand with helping her lose weight after giving birth to baby Reign.

And Kourtney is not the only member of her family to use waist training. Kim Kardashian first touted this weight-loss strategy last summer. And earlier this week, Khloe posted her own corset Instagram photo and urged her followers to check out Waist Gang Society’s website.

“Im obsessed with the gym but a little extra help never hurt nobody,” Khloe captioned the photo below.  “@waistgangsociety and@premadonna87 keep my waist snatched and posture perfect. Once you try it, you will become obsessed!!! Head over to whatsawaist.com the ONLY place to get your waist trainer.”

Khloe Kardashian encouraged her followers to try waist training, but doctors claim it may not be safe.

So what is waist training? This new weight-loss method, which is also endorsed by celebrities like Kim Zolciak-Biermann, involves wearing tight corsets to help slim down. Waist Gang Society, in particular, claims that wearing the corset for four hours a day while maintaining a healthy diet and exercise will give you, “a beautiful sexy silhouette while permanently getting rid of unwanted inches around your waist.”

But the concept is quite controversial. Several doctors have warned that waist training is at best useless and at worst dangerous.

“It’s not real,” Dr. Sajani Shah of  Tufts Medical Center told Boston Globe. “If there’s any reduction in inches in the waist, it’s probably temporary. … It compresses the stomach, the spleen, the heart. It impacts how well the lungs can inflate.”

Kim Kardashian used waist training to slim down last summer.

Plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Nassif agreed. He told E! News, “I’m worried about what effect it has on the lower intestines with pushing the contents into the pelvic region. That is a [concern], in addition to compressing the diaphragm, which causes pulmonary problems. Basically, there is potential for internal organ compression causing kidney, gastrointestinal and lung issues.”

Other doctors say the impact of waist training is more psychological than physical. But this weight-loss method does seem to work best on women like Kourtney Kardashian who have recently given birth.

“[Waist training] is not so much about medical results,” said Dr. Pouya Shafipour of Wellesley Medical in Los Angeles. “It makes you feel more confident. It makes you want to exercise more. For people that are heavier, these physically give them a lot more mobility. And psychologically it provides a feel-good effect, makes them stand straight. A lot of the benefits involve just feeling better, feeling slimmer and feeling taller. It gives them a lot of confidence to do things that they probably normally wouldn’t.”
