Mariah Wants You To Know She’s Skinny Now

Mariah Carey was a guest on last night’s The Rosie Show with Rosie O’Donnell. Above is the teaser Carey recorded in which she’s moving around like it’s 1997 and she’s filming Glitter 2: Mimi Got Her Groove Back. Below is the full interview. The singer mostly rehashes the information we already learned in her 20/20 interview; she had a difficult, complication-filled pregnancy where she was barely able to move for months. She has been eating healthy and working out, but credits a shill diet plan for making her so slim. ‘In the beginning, when I first had the babies, I had so much edema… water and swelling. Most pregnant woman have that just in their feet [but] one day I was doing my thank you notes and I noticed it started rising up the leg, so I had edema. I didn’t think I would ever be the same person. The first week [on the shill diet], I lost 40 lbs… of just water. It was just water, initially. When I started with the program, I lost at least 30 lbs. of weight that needed to be lost.’ Because she had a c-section, Carey explained that excerise right after deliver wasn’t an option, ‘The diet is 90 percent of it.’
