Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon pose for "People" magazine's photographer Alison Dyer in a Trina Truk swimsuit just seven months after welcoming fraternal twin boys Jaid Thomas and Jax Joseph last October. (So I decided to scan the photos for Urban-Hoopla readers.)

In a interview with PEOPLE journalist Amy Elisa Keith, Garcelle revealed how she got into pre-baby shape.

Garcelle credited her husband, Michael Nilon, as motivation, after she discovered she weight more (172 lbs to be exact) than him. Garcelle also went on a low-carb 1,200 calories a day diet, which helped her lose 30 lbs.

Now at 135 lbs, Garcelle remarked on her post-baby shape: "I don't have a six-pack but if I did, it'd mean I wasn't spending enough time with my kids. So I'm fine with it."




In related news, Black Celebrity Kids has quotes from the new fit mom's "OK magazine" interview where she explained how helpful her husband has been since they had the twins.
