Her piercing blue eyes were on display as she posed in a gray long-sleeve turtleneck on the beach.

She wore a sparkly black jumpsuit and went barefoot.

BEAUTIFUL

Christina lost over 40 pounds before her Las Vegas residency earlier this year.

In March, an insider told  that the singer had restricted her caloric intake to 1,600 calories per day.

The source added that Christina had been working out “rigorously” every day of the week.

“Christina didn’t feel as energetic with extra weight,” they said.

“Some are concerned she’ll gain the weight back but she loves all the attention she’s getting.”

'NOT MY BUSINESS'

In the article, Christina shares that the world caring about her weight was "particularly painful."

Her self-esteem in the early 2000s was based on how skinny she was.

“When you’re a teenager, you have a very different body than when you’re in your 20s," she told the publication.

“I started to fill out, and then that was unacceptable because it was like, ‘Oh, she’s getting thicker.’ Then I had industry people: ‘They liked your body and how you were as a skinny teenager.’”

However, as she has aged, Christina is less affected by comments from the world.

"I have a maturity now where I just don’t give a f**k about your opinion. I’m not going to take it on," she said.

 “It must be your responsibility to take up your space. Other people’s opinions of me are not my business.”

Christina hopes to instill the mindset of not caring what others think into her children.

"Your kids trigger things in you that you don’t want them to go through. And it’s almost like you’re reliving this whole thing again," she said.

Christina shares her daughter, Summer Rain, 10, with fiancé Matt Rutler, and a son, Max, 16, with her ex-husband, Jordan Bratman.
