Motherhood has made Mimi buff!

Three months after giving birth to twins, Mariah Carey hit the beach in a one-piece -- and proudly showed off her post baby bod to fans in a TwitPic posted on Tuesday.

"Ocean work out! It's been a loooong time since I've been in the ocean," wrote the Grammy winner, 41. In the pic, Carey triumphantly beams and stretches out her toned arms and shoulders in a cleavage-bearing one-piece swimsuit, sunglasses and sun visors.

"My body went through so much," Carey recently admitted of her pregnancy with son Moroccan and daughter Monroe, born April 30. (The twins' dad is her hubby Nick Cannon.)

"I was so uncomfortable," added Carey. "I'm kind of proud of myself. I really am -- sorry, pregnant with twins is different than anything! [People] were always saying to me, 'Oh, but it's all worth it!' Yeah, but it's easy to say when you're not the one whose feet are this big! It turned into like a really difficult time."

    @Karen Shut up Mariah adores her babies and is even breastfeeding them something most celeb moms now a days don't do. she's always been a business minded person and so what if her and Nick have nannies to help out with Roc n Roe sometimes she's in a one piece in that picture because she's still got a scar fro her medically neccessary c-section and a bit of pregnancy weight to lose but has to keep 10 pounds of it while she's nursing which she should be comeneded for but won't be because people think it's dangerous to nurse with implants no it isn't. The twins didn't chose to be famous their mother and father did and being protective like they have been should be commended not dragged through the mud

    sorry, pregnant with twins is different than anything! [People] were always saying to me, 'Oh, but it's all worth it!' Yeah, but it's easy to say when you're not the one whose feet are this big! It turned into like a really difficult time." I think she said the exact same thing on HSN, lol. It's alright; I was like that the 1st time I gave birth. That experience makes you all gushy and I'm sure she's not trying to be obnoxious. She's in love.

    Mariah Carey cannot get over herself, it is all about her, she may have a voice but the rest of her is pathetic. She constantly is in promo mode for herself. Mariah having kids is a joke, where will she find the time to give them the love and support children need when she is more concerned about her next photo op or storyline. What a wonderful example she projects to impressionable young women, NOT!!!!

    Mariah Carey is talented and beautiful to look at, whatever size she was/is. And I love a woman in a one-piece. It's not what you see, but what you don't see. I'd prefer to let my imagination run wild

    SHAME ON ALL OF YOU HATERS! Mimi you are the Real Deal and these peeps are nothing but jealous of you. Look at how much she has accomplished and to say she has "always been a big girl" just shows how ignorant you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing about her was ever big (you know, other than her awesome hair, personality, voice, accomplishments, the list goes on!!!) until she got her unnecessary but HER CHOICE TO GET implants. Call her "ME ME" all you want because you're doing nothing but complimenting this woman who is continually brought down for being HERSELF instead of following the crowds to sell herself. She will always be true to herself!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats to Nick and Mimi you both deserve each other and the best life has to offer and guess what they have MUCH better things to do with their time than pay attention to you haters!! IGNORANCE, disgusting! She beat the Beatles for nothing but being a "cow", I forgot. SHE HAS TALENT. DO YOUR F-ing RESEARCH. She sings, she writes, she produces, and she is BEAUTIFUL inside and out! I have seen her up close and my breath was taken away by how stunning she is. Mimi take Nick, your butterflies, rainbows, your babies (heaven forbid a celebrity tell the TRUTH?!), and go re-emancipate yourself again. Your true fans have always and will always love you DONT EVER STOP DOING WHAT YOU DO!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE THE REAL DEAL. Haters, go away you are wasting your breath she aint listening to ya anyway! MIMI I love you forever and ever and ever!!!!!!!!!! UNTIL FOREVER! Keep on smiling, keep on singing please!

    eber-she is not happy the way she is or she would be doing full photo shoots not hiding in the ocean in a girdle suit-when has Me-Me ever passed an opportunity to play princess diva in a photo shoot?? Me-Me is the one who has made all her money as an over rated stripper swinging her udders in transparent tops in strip videos to sell her boring generic processed "music"-her every action has been a degradation to decent women like all strippers and prostitute they manipulate men with their dicks and think it is all great and wonderful-and then one day they get fat and old and rejected and they don't want to be judged by their looks anymore and turn in to psycho sympathy freaks to get attention-live by the sword-die by the sword-you want to take advantage, act like your better and manipulate using yours tits be prepared to pay the piper when you are old, saggy and fat and still trying to pass yourself off as some sex symbol-oh--but don't judge me by my looks-just fork over the cash-but still tell me I am beautiful-RIGHT NOW!!!! we have every right to criticize that behavior-she is a freakshow

  • August 04, 2011 - 8:53pm Quindarious Howard

    I LOVE HER!!!!

  • August 04, 2011 - 8:43am Eber Monteiro

    Mean self loathing women. Let her be. She's happy the way she is. You guys are apparently not happy the way you are thus you keep finding faults on other women's bodies. We don't need that kinda hate around here.

  • August 04, 2011 - 8:41am Eber Monteiro

    all the hater comments here are left either by obese old ladies, or bitter girls that have nothing to do, but bring people down. hey if she's happy the size she is, then let her be. All i hear is a bunch of school girls whinning, but I'm sure none of you are in shape or at least have the toned arms she has in this pic. Get a life all of you. Just because you have self image issues doesnt mean everyone has to as well. Hey if I had the money I'd hire a nanny, and so would all of you!!! And please giving birth to two babies is definitely harder than one. Plus you have twice the amount of work. Yes let her hire a nanny, she has the money, and she's worked hard for it. SO psh all of you.

    You sad patheitc losers bad mouthing her need to get struck by lightening. Mariah looks fantastic and she is a very lovely warm and given woman. She loves her babies more than anything so stfu and worry about your own lame lives.

  • August 03, 2011 - 8:10pm Anna Summers

    this lady has always acted like a Diva...anywho her body is bad, was always bad.

  • August 03, 2011 - 6:32pm Rebecca Enerson

    oh joy more whining and patting herself on the back-and she still looks cowish and is obviously hiding everything below her udders on purpose-and the only reason they haven't pimped the baby photos is because Me-Me is pissed that 200K was top offer-she really thought she would get millions-200k doesn't even pay for 1 of the many "push presents " Nick had to buy so as to not be casterated-which is ridiculous because Me-Me didn't push she laid there doped out of her mind with multiple spinal blocks while they were surgically removed a month early because Me-Me couldn't take it anymore-instead of continually bee-yotching she ought to be grateful they made it out of ICU-no thanks to her-it seem her tummy tuck, 3rd wedding re-enactment and sticking it to Nick with the guilt trip to buy her ridiculous amounts of UGLY jewelry where Me-Me's priorities-is she going to lay this poor me guilt trip on her kids the rest of their lives as well? What a cow!

    You are the only one to have ever had twins Moomoo. You have it the hardest. I hope US didn't pay too much for this photo of her toned body. haha At least she's wearing a one piece.

  • August 03, 2011 - 12:12pm Sara Peterson Carriaga

    I also agree with Dana. I am kinda surprised she has said this since she worked so hard to get pregnant. I know having twins is hard, I have twins myself. My body will never be the same, but I am so lucky to have my boys and it was all worth it. I would do it again a million times.
