Bow down to you, Ciara!

Ciara stepped out to celebrate the Fashion Los Angeles Awards in West Hollywood on Thursday, Jan. 22, clad in a white suit and crop top combo by Calvin Klein Collection that flaunted her fierce abs. No big deal—except that the pop star only gave birth to her son, Future Zahir, just eight months before!

The “Body Party” singer, 29, looks incredible, without a hint of a post-baby bump in sight. But it didn’t come easy—she had to work out at least twice a day to get there.

“I had to wait six weeks after I gave birth to my son, and as soon as the doctor said, ‘You can go,’ I went!” Ciara, who also worked shoes and a clutch by Calvin Klein Collection, told Us Weekly. “I trained two times a day. I had a meal plan delivered to my door every day, where it was about the good carbs and the good fibers. I just went hard for it; I literally was like a zombie!”

But it wasn’t just about getting back her body. The professional dancer, who split from the father of her child, Future, in August 2014, wanted to boost her confidence levels, too. “After you have your baby, you feel so proud—I felt like I could conquer anything after that,” she said.

Even Drew Barrymore, who gave birth to her second daughter, Frankie, around the same time last April, couldn’t stop gushing about Ciara’s ripped frame. “You look amazing!” the actress told her on the red carpet.
