Charlotte Church on her stunning new slim look

London, Mar 21 : Charlotte Church has revealed the secret behind her new
smokin’ hot body.

Charlotte, who’s married to Welsh rugby star Gavin Henson, had ballooned
to a size 16 after giving birth to Ruby, two, and Dexter, 14 months.

The 24-year-old singer turned to professional sportsman Gavin, 28, to
help her fight the flab, reports The Mirror.

And she denied claims she resorted to a gastric band, saying: "It''s
very simple, my weight loss. I just eat better and eat less food than I
used to.

"So that means less stodge, less junk food like burgers and chips and
smaller portions, with meals consisting of things like lean meat and
salad.

"I certainly haven''t embarked on some great exercise regime to get
slim. Exercise is alien to me and I don''t like doing it.

"Gavin took me out on a couple of training runs but it was way too much
for me. I told him I''d have a heart attack if I carried on so I
stopped. I should have realised that it would be a mistake.

"Gavin is a trained sportsman and his regime is punishing, way too much
for me, what with all the sprints and supershort rests in between.

"They may be great for a rugby player but they left me feeling
absolutely knackered. I only took part in them because I knew I''d have
to lose weight after my babies were born.

"I did eat vast amounts when I was expecting Ruby and Dexter and
inevitably piled on the pounds."

But, she adds: "Gavin has never put pressure on me to lose weight -
he''s always been happy, whatever shape I''ve been.

"And I have to say that I''ve always felt comfortable in my skin and
never felt pressure to lose weight just to alter my appearance.

"But I do now have the perfect incentive to lose weight and get more in
trim - and that''s my kids. I want to be around for them for as long as I
possibly can be. Being fit and healthy will help me do that. Gavin,
Ruby and Dexter are my life and the work is a sideline.

"That doesn''t mean to say I don''t take it seriously - I do. But at the
heart of my life are my family. I hate to be apart from them.

"I breastfed both of my children and I''m looking forward to being
around when Ruby goes to school. I want to be that mum on the school run
- for both her and Dexter. I want to be a hands-on parent." (ANI)
