Kim Kardashian has been enjoying a break from her hectic schedule in recent weeks after welcoming baby boy Saint in early December, but now the 35-year-old is gearing up to get back to her pre-pregnancy body. The Keeping up with the Kardashians star took to Twitter to reveal she plans to lose 70lbs over the coming months – and that she has already been making progress.

"I'm so excited! I'm 30lbs down today but 40 to go!" she wrote to her 39.3 million followers, before adding that she felt "so focused" on achieving her goal.
The style icon, who is married to rapper Kanye West, explained the reasoning behind her decision to lose 70lbs specifically.
"I gained 60lbs during my pregnancy but have been an extra 10lbs up for the last few years," she explained. "So it's time to really get to my goal."

Kim did admit that despite her enthusiasm to exercise, she is prepared to work hard in order to reach her targets. "This is going to be sooo [expletive] hard but I can do it," she said. "And I can't wait to share it all with you! #BeastMode #WhosWithME ?!?!?!"
Although the star has been an active presence on social media in recent months, she has been keeping a relatively low profile and has not yet made an official appearance since giving birth to Saint before Christmas.
Kim shared an adorable snap of North and Saint on Instagram
The little boy is Kim and Kanye's second child – the couple also have an adorable two-year-old daughter named North.
Kim caused a social media frenzy when she shared the first photo of Saint, which sees the newborn holding hands with his older sister. Proving that North has already bonded with her new sibling, Kim captioned the sweet photo: "She said 'he's my best friend.'"
The mum-of-two originally uploaded the picture on her app under the headline 'BFF' before sharing the candid snap with her 58.2M Instagram followers.
