Seven weeks after the birth of her adorable son Mason Dash, new mom Kourtney Kardashian says has more important things on her mind than shedding the remaining baby weight.

“It’s been hard to find time to work out,” the reality star tells Life & Style magazine. “All I want to do is spend time with Mason.”

Last month Kourtney called out OK! magazine for doctoring their cover photo to make it look as though she was already back to her pre-baby form. She's not, she says, revealing that “losing the weight has been a lot harder than I thought.”

Though she's already lost 25 of the 40lbs she gained during her pregnancy, Kourtney insists she's been in no rush to slim down.

“Since having him, I don’t care as much what I look like. I gained weight in my booty, my stomach, my thighs and my arms. Everything got a little bigger for sure. I do want to get back to the way my body was before, but it’s definitely not my biggest concern. I feel fine.”

So what's her secret to looking so great in the meantime? A Belly Bandit, which she shows off in the picture above. “Nobody even knows I'm wearing it!” she says.
