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.
Check out adorable photos of Nadya with her children.
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!"
See the day's top celeb news photos.

EmmyBearThis poor woman needs psychological help. Anybody who believes she didn't have a tummy tuck at the very least is just stupid. I'm just waiting to hear that she's pregnant again, and Dr. Phil's the father.report abuseposted November 2, 2009 6:18 PM PST

DottyinCAWhy on earth would anyone commend a woman who chose to have 14 kids who will have no father, take a chance of having that many babies, lie about never taking welfare, get a huge money settlement from an office accident and say she's in terrible pain, and then get pregnant again, and never tell her parents about the money and let them use all of their soc. sec money to help her.
