Mariah Covers 'Shape' Magazine, Reveals Weight Loss Methods and Possible New Album

Fit momma 43-year-old Mariah Carey covers the May issue of Shape magazine which is on newsstands today (April 23rd). 


In the issue, Mariah reveals how she shed weight after giving birth to twins, Moroccan and Monroe... she dropped 30 pounds in three months.


Mariah is the spokeswoman for Jenny and said she had to clean up what she was eating.

"I realize that 90 percent of losing weight is my diet.," she tells Shape.

Mariah continues to say, "Today my workout routine is more about getting and staying toned. And for me, that means either taking hour-long walks a few times a week or jumping in the pool three or four days a week to do 45 minutes of aquatic exercises."

And it looks like there's an album in the works...possibly coming out this year!


Mariah is gearing up for a major comeback in the music industry and tells Shape, "I’ve started writing songs for a new album, which I hope will come out in 2012."


"Getting back in the studio and making music again—which I truly love doing—is the best way to end this crazy year."


Whoop whoop! I can't wait for a new Mariah album.
