Pink covers the November issue of Shape Magazine, showing off her postpartum weight loss. Pink gave birth in June 2011, and she took her time losing the “55 pounds” she put on during her pregnancy. That’s her figure, not mine. I guess it sounds somewhat accurate. Previously, Pink joked that after she gave birth, “I just felt like a mess… I gained 55lbs. I think my baby may be part cheesecake.” Well, Pink worked hard – and I do believe her weight loss came from exercise and a vegan diet, as opposed to a tummy tuck and a cigarette-and-ice-chip diet. And now she’s talking about the results:

Pink‘s tough-as-nails attitude has softened a little bit up since giving birth to daughter Willow Sage in June 2011 — but her body has only gotten more rock solid. The 33-year-old, who is married to motocross racer Carey Hart, gained 55 pounds during her pregnancy, indulging on her favorite sweet treats.

“I hate a lot of cheesecake during those nine months,” she told Shape magazine. “Also, anything sour; Sour Skittles, Sour Patch Kids, key lime pie.”

But eight weeks after giving birth — she didn’t want to “rush” back into losing weight — she started training with celebrity trainers Jillian Michaels and Jeanette Jenkins.

“They both kicked my butt more than any other person I’ve worked out with,” she said. “The’re both amazing, and their bodies were all the inspiration I needed to get back into shape.”

Pink’s routine changed up every day, but always included a heavy dose of cardio and a lot of strength training. She did interval treadmill routines, power yoga, and kickboxing. She only sees Jeanette five days a week now, but says she’s gotten “great results.”

The proud mom also feeds herself and her family a mostly vegan diet, with green favorites such as arugula and asparagus, and healthy carbs including cous cous and brown rice. There’s no denying the singer is in amazing shape, but she insists being a mom is what makes her happiest.

“It’s just pure joy for Carey and me. Willow has made us more fun — we’re this cool little threesome,” she gushed.

Pink also confessed to her previous “wild child” ways – she started smoking at just nine-years-old and overdosed in a nightclub at the age of 15.

“I was 9 [when I started smoking]. By the time I turned 12 I was smoking a pack a day. I quit when I got pregnant. Unlike before [Willow was born], cigarettes smell repulsive to me.”

As for the drugs, she took as a teen: “I was into ecstasy, Special K, crystal meth, acid – you name it.”

Am I the only one irritated by “She only sees Jeanette five days a week now…”? ONLY? Like, they’re passive-aggressively saying that she’s lazy for not working out seven days a week. Maybe that just irritates me – I work out four times a week, and sometimes I worry that I’m overdoing it. And I’ve heard from many trainers that it’s better to let your body rest for more than 24 hours before doing another intensive workout.

I always forget that Pink is vegan too – she should be the face of veganism, as opposed to someone like Lea Michele, who all too often looks TOO slender, in my opinion. Pink looks healthy, fit and strong. There should be more vegans like Pink.
