Garner's disastrous body

(BANG) - Jennifer Garner says her figure is a "disaster" since becoming a mother.

The actress, who wore a skin-tight catsuit for action movie 'Elektra', says her body is in terrible shape since giving birth to daughter Violet a year ago.

Jennifer, who is married to Ben Affleck, told Elle magazine: "I'm in the worst shape ever.

"My trainer just shakes her head and says, 'This is a disaster.'"

"I am as physically unfit as I've probably been in my whole life. It's such a horror in front of the mirror with no clothes on."

The 'Alias' star says her pregnancy weight gain is sparking rumours that she is having another baby.

She said: "No, everyone calm down. Nobody's pregnant.

"You still have that little bit of extra skin. But still, it's enough for people to think that you're knocked up."

The 34-year-old - whose daughter turned one on Friday (01.12.06) - said that having a baby has not made married life at all difficult.

Jennifer said: "Maybe it's because we were newlyweds.

"I think it's just that Ben is also a very understanding individual. A compassionate, generous guy. He's great with Violet and she loves him, which makes it a lot easier on me."

"My husband is super-involved and very present."

Jennifer's latest film, 'Catch and Release', is due out in January.
