Nine months after giving birth to octuplets, single mom Nadya Suleman is back into her pre-baby jeans after losing a staggering 145 pounds -- without the help of a trainer or plastic surgery.
"I topped 270 pounds while pregnant," the controversial 34-year-old mother of 14 kids -- Elijah, 8; Amerah, 7; Joshua, 6; Aidan, 4; twins Calyssa and Caleb, 3; and 9-month-old octuplets Josiah, Makai, Jeremiah, Nariyah, Jonah, Noah, Maliyah and Isaiah, tells the new issue of Us Weekly.

And though she easily snapped back into a size two after her other pregnancies, getting back into shape after welcoming eight babies wasn't easy. "I was eating everything in sight," she explains.
Instantly erasing 40 pounds after delivering her octuplets, Suleman says she felt compelled to join a local gym after their birth. There, she fits in thrice-weekly midnight workouts (while a nanny watches over her sleeping children) with strength training but no cardio. "I get enough of that with the kids," Suleman, who gets by on three hours of sleep, tells Us.
But don't think workouts alone got the 5-foot-7 mom down to 125 lbs. -- Suleman maintains a strict diet, too.

Five protein-packed meals or snacks a day normally consist of "anything the kids are eating." Food staples in the Suleman household? Oatmeal, sushi, turkey, and even homemade baby food. "As long as it's nutritious, it's good to eat," the busy mom explains.
"Even my Ob-Gyn is astounded at how I've snapped back," says Suleman, who did not seek any surgical help for her weight. "And she knows I haven't had anything done!"

Strength training? With her bad back? No surgery? With Octuplets?

**mrs.v** · October 24th, 2009, 05:22 PM

Yes,and we all know the frapp she's sucking on is part of every strict diet

Die.

**mtlebay** · October 24th, 2009, 05:33 PM

Whatever, nice try--shouldn't she have too much flabby skin?

Nadya, you had P.S. to get your body back, what can you do about that freak face?

**msdeb** · October 24th, 2009, 05:35 PM

ugh i hate this broad. and the only reason she's able to 'be a mom' is because she has HELP. she should have thought about all this shit, when she was knocked up with the first kid.

Thanks for draining CA dry bitch. (well, she's not the only one, thats another thread)

She never had plastic surgery, ever. Not even on her face. Of course
we all know that is true.

Bullshit lady, bullshit.

She fits back into her pre-baby jeans (which the article says is size two), at 5'7 and 125lbs....

Well, that's interesting since I am 5'7 and 126 pounds and I'm definitely not a size 2

**angelais** · October 24th, 2009, 07:07 PM

She's full of SHIT! I thought we would not have to hear from the biatch again, you know with the whole Jon and Kate and Balloon boy hogging up the media.

Go to hell and drop of the face of the earth you stupid nasty dirty vagina.

Her face is terrifying.

She looks like a wax doll. Why does a woman who is so weird that she can't cope with having a relationship think she is upto the task of bringing up 8 kids? What a fame whore , i'd never buy a magazine she was in or watch a programme about her. Poor kids.
