Mariah Carey gets back her figure post pregnancy

Actress-cum-Singer Mariah Carey, who had gained lot of weight during her pregnancy, has now shed some pounds and has got back her figure after giving birth to twins. The 42-year-old star admits that it was a difficult feat to reduce weight. Now, she is in fantastic shape.

In an interview to the Daily Mail, Mariah Carey says that she put on 70 lbs, but if one looks at her in pictures he/she would think it is more like 9,000 lbs. She has a lot of empathy with people, who have to lose a lot of weight. She has been there and she knows what they are going through. She remembers thinking at the time: She will never look or feel the same again.

However, the singer is wrong and she now looks and feels better than ever. In the May issue of Shape magazine, Mariah Carey flaunts her incredible abs in just a blue and white striped crop top and white knickers. She admits that being pregnant with Monroe and Moroccan was a tricky time for her.
