Mariah Carey was Motivated by High Heels to Shed Post-Baby Weight

It was her high heels that motivated her to lose the extra kilos she had gained during her pregnancy, Mariah Carey has said.

The 'We Belong Together' hitmaker admitted that she was determined to shed her pregnancy weight after realizing that her bloated feet could no longer fit into her favourite shoes.

"I felt pressure from myself... I did fear that I wouldn't be able to get back into my shoes. I was like, 'I have walls full of shoes'," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

Carey gave birth to twins in April this year and has already shed a whopping 31.75 kilograms.

The 41-year-old pop star, however, insists that she's got a long way to go in restoring her body to its former glory days.

"Honestly, it's so like, 'Do I fit into my shorts from the Fantasy video? OK, I'm good.' And I have those things (still). Honestly, it's like, 'Do I fit into my Heartbreaker jeans?' (My body in the) Touch My Body (video) is a goal," she added.
