Britney Spears getting back to "fighting weight"

Since leaving rehab in March, Britney Spears seems to have dropped her hard-partying ways – and a few extra pounds.

"After all the negative stuff, she's getting back to her 'fighting weight,' " one Spears business associate tells PEOPLE.

That much was evident April 12, when the singer, 25, stopped by Bel Air boutique Sydney Michelle to stock up on supershort dresses. "She looked totally healthy and beautiful," says an onlooker. "And her legs are awesome."

What?s the secret to her seemingly sudden slim-down? "She's working out, eating right and enjoying life," says the singer's rep. (Some published reports also claim Spears underwent a nonsurgical liposuction procedure called LipoDissolve during a recent trip to Las Vegas.)

The mother of two – sons Sean Preston, 19 months, and Jayden James, 7 months – has also been sweating off the pounds with frequent trips to North Hollywood's Millennium Dance Complex.

"She's got an amazing metabolism," owner Robert Baker tells PEOPLE. "When she puts her mind to it, she can transform pretty easily."

Now that rehab and divorce talks with Kevin Federline are behind her, Spears's next priority is getting her career back on track. "We're working on the album," says producer (and former flame) J.R. Rotem.

So will this healthy new outlook finally get Britney back in the zone? "I hear she's taking care of herself," says longtime pal Lance Bass. "She's definitely getting her life back in order."

I bet my fighting weight could beat her fighting weight's ass.

If I could have some of that Lipodisolve, I'd be at my very best weight too.

She forgot to throw up after meals when she was on drugs all the time.

I say once she reaches her "fighting weight", she should take on Mike Tyson in a no holds barred fight to the death. That would be worth the money to see.

Good idea!!!

So what the fuck is she *fighting* anyway? Besides the urge to shelf the puss for a few years and actually be a real mom?

sometimes i wish these celebs would just spill their weight and be HONEST about it

"I weigh this-much, I got up to this-much, I am trying to get down to this-much" just put it in persepective. i swear the tabs wouldnt focus so much on celebs if they were more forthcoming

I must admit, her legs are looking fantastic.

i think, in the past few days she's gotten a bit fatter again because she's been eating junk food. her thighs are huge. she needs to drop some pounds.

While I hesitate to criticize any new mother's weight, Britney hasn't exactly "bounced back".
As far as the eating right goes, I definitely saw a photo of homegirl just the other day sporting some Carls Jr. take out.
MMM. Healthy.
