The grey’s anatomy actress, Katherine Heigl, welcomed her third child, son,  Joshua Bishop Kelley with husband Josh Kelley on December 20, 2016.

The photos were posted in the form of collage in Instagram and Heigl captioned it:

It's been almost 14 months since Joshua Jr was born and it has taken me about that long to really get back in shape. The first pic was taken one month after he was born. The second pic was taken almost a full year later and the last pic was taken this weekend. I wish I had a few from in between the first and second so you could really see how slow my progress was but alas...I was busy covering it all up those months, not posing in my unders!

Heigl revealed that many things motivated her to get a toned body and one of them was her role in suits. 

I have a beach vacation coming up, a new job I start filming in April and my deep desire to feel fit, strong and sexy propelling me forward the last two months to finally lose the last of my baby weight and do a deep dive search for the ab muscles I knew were buried under that belly somewhere!

She further explained:

I was wholly and totally inspired by Miss @rachparcell [blogger Rachel Parcell] and the before and after pics, she shared after taking the #bbg challenge. I had never heard of it but she looked so damn great (she had her baby just a few months before me) that I had to check it out.

The actress from the 2009 hit movie, the ugly truth, took on Instagram and revealed that she lost 61 pounds since September 2016.
