Javine Hylton shows off her post-baby figure

Javine Hylton shows off her post-baby figure
Javine Hylton looks half the woman she was after shedding three-and-a-half stone, since the birth of her daughter Angel Mai Hylton Harvey.
The singer, 26, who gave birth in February, has gone from fourteen stone to ten-and-a-half stone, thanks to a combination of diet and exercise.
She told Closer magazine: "I feel much more confident posing naked this time. I feel proud of myself, even though I’m not in as good a shape as I’d like. My body has changed and my boobs are a bit bigger – although they’ve headed south!”.“Having Angel has totally changed me,” says Javine. “Before, if I woke up with a cloud over my head, I’d let it last. Now I have a beautiful baby, how can I not smile? And if you smile, it makes them smile. I feel so much more laid back.”
The singer admits that the first few weeks of motherhood were a struggle. “I kept bursting into tears and I even asked my mum if she thought I had post-natal depression. But it was just the shock of having a baby.
“It didn’t help that I got mastitis [inflammation] in both boobs, which was agony. I had to take antibiotics, which gave Angel thrush in her mouth, so I stopped breastfeeding.
“At that point, I could hardly look in the mirror,” she admits. “I’d always thought of myself as a fit, athletic person, but I’d spread everywhere! My bum was enormous – it came round on all sides and stuck out behind me! “I’d put on four stone while pregnant – going up to fourteen stone – and although I’d lost some of the weight, my pre-pregnancy jeans wouldn’t fit. I’d cover up in Harvey’s biggest T-shirts and tracksuit bottoms.”
Six weeks after giving birth, Javine met personal trainer Tim Hayes. Tim developed a diet and fitness plan for the new mum, who then weighed twelve-and-a-half stone. He put her on a strict, five-times-a-week regime of aerobic and core-strength exercises.
