Gorgeous: Anna FrielAnna FrielActress Anna Friel has revealed how she shed the pounds so quickly after giving birth.

Since delivering daughter Gracie just three months ago, the former Brookside star is slipping nicely into her size 8 clobber.

And it's all down to a wetsuit, would you believe.

She told Grazia magazine: "I wear this space-age wetsuit that wires me up to a suction pump as I walk a treadmill."

But don't be fooled into thinking a vacuum cleaner and PVC all-in-one could produce the same result.

The 'Vacunaut' or Stomach Fat Killer, as it's better known, is a very clever hi-tech alternative to liposuction.

Anna is the latest in a long (and very thin) line of celebs to shrink back into shape after childbirth.

Anna, starring in new movie Goal!, says the suit helps, but hates the pressure on new mothers to shed weight.

"You're judged if you gain it, you're judged if you lose it. I just want to get into my natural shape."

Of course, a magic wetsuit and a personal trainer can certainly help.
