The Biggest Loser‘s Suzy Preston, who welcomed son Rex Timothy on June 23 with husband and fellow contestant Matt Hoover, has admitted it was difficult to watch her pregnancy weight gain. Now a size 14, Suzy hopes to get back into her pre-pregnancy size of 8 by doing weight training twice a week and walking two miles every day. She and Matt, who’s also working out, are also on a healthy diet and the couple hopes to pass that onto their son.

Healthy stuff will be his only option. I can’t wait to pack his little lunch!

Proud new parents Matt Hoover and Suzy Preston from Biggest Loser famepose with their 4-week-old baby boy and "laid-back dude," Rex Timothy,in the latest In Touch. The two are loving parenthood so far, with Mattcalling it "the coolest thing I’ve ever done."

When you hold your son in your arms for the first time,everything up to that point becomes meaningless…I grew up in a placewhere you’d hear, ‘Once you become a father, your life is over. But forme, it’s just getting started. It’s awesome!

As for Suzy, who admitted it was difficult to watch her weight gain, the numbers on the scale are insignificant now.

I’mmore confident in my body than I’ve been in a long time. I don’t evenremember all the anguish about the weight because Rex is so worth it.

Rex, who eats every three hours, got his name from a wallhanging in a catalog his parents saw. The tyke completely takes afterhis father, the two claim.

He looks exactly like I did as a baby. But he’s changing every day and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

One thing Matt doesn’t want to see is a dirty diaper. Rex goesthrough one practically every hour and Matt is doing his best totolerate it.

Changing poopy diapers still makes me gag. But I’mtrying to get over that because being a dad is the most important thingto me and I love it.
