Gaby Hoffmann is sort of a child star turned indie-spirit actress. You can see her IMDB here – I guarantee you’ve seen her in at least one movie (Uncle Buck!!) or TV show (The Good Wife!). She has a recurring role on Girls, and she attended the Season 4 premiere two nights ago – those are the photos I’m including in this post. Gaby also gave birth very recently. Her baby is only six weeks old, actually. And on the red carpet two nights ago, she was asked how she got so slim so fast. Her answer? Eating her placenta. How January Jones of her.

She gave birth six short weeks ago, but Gaby Hoffmann was ready for a Girls night. The actress showed off her slender post-baby body at the HBO show’s season four premiere in N.Y.C. on Monday — and shared her secret to bouncing back.

“Placenta, placenta, placenta. Just eat that s— up, and it does a girl good!” Hoffmann, who guest-stars as Adam’s out-there sister in the hit series, told PEOPLE, noting it boosted her energy and milk supply.

The actress, 32, and longtime boyfriend, cinematographer Chris Dapkins, welcomed daughter Rosemary on Nov. 19 at home and says getting those nutrients from the birth organ was easy. “You don’t taste [it],” she explains.

“I made smoothies out of it for three weeks. I had a home birth, so my midwife and my doula took it and cut it up into 20 pieces and froze it, and every day, I put it in a blender with strawberries and blueberries and guava juice and a banana, and I drank that s— up.”

With her healthy snack all gone, the actress was saying “bottoms up” with another beverage during her evening out.

“I’ve been home with my baby. It’s my first night out. Coming out to a party at the Museum of Natural History where you get to watch Girls and have a drink with your friends?” the Transparent star says. “What better night out [is there]?”

I don’t judge women for what they choose to do with their placentas. I actually thought Camila Alves and Matthew McConaughey’s placenta-tree thing was sort of cool. I wasn’t really bothered by the fact that January Jones freeze-dried her placenta and had it made into vitamin pills. So the idea of putting pieces of your placenta in your smoothies and drinking it over the course of several weeks? I mean, God bless. That’s your call. My only thought is that if you want to eat your placenta, maybe there are easier ways to do it rather than throwing it in a smoothie? I would take placenta pills over placenta smoothies, any day of the week.
