Christina Aguilera says her slimline post-baby figure is down to breastfeeding.The 'Dirrty' singer - who gave birth to son Max Liron, her first baby with husband Jordan Bratman, two months ago - insists feeding hungry Max is "like a workout in itself".She told US TV show 'Access Hollywood': "I think they say that when you're breastfeeding, you know, your weight kind of slims down. It's a little easier. It's like a workout within itself. It's very tiring actually and you find yourself snacking more often."

That's how you drop weight. Even though you're just eating all the time he is eating too."
