Nicole “Coco” Austin is 8 months pregnant with her first child, but that hasn’t stopped her from trying to look her best despite sporting a growing baby bump.

Coco showed off her pregnancy curves in sexy, form-fitting dresses from a recent photoshoot. In the instagram pictures, Austin has her hair and makeup done, and spotlights her rounded baby belly and massive cleavage.

Coco, who’s 32 weeks pregnant, follows follows a high-protein diet and works out to minimize excessive weight gain.

Coco said her pregnancy cravings are mostly for fruit. “I crave fruit!” said Austin. “I fantasize about a bowl of fruit. It’s so weird! Even when I’m not pregnant, I usually have fruit in my diet.”

Before getting pregnant, the 5-foot-2 Austin said she weighed 135 pounds, and her measurements were 39DD-23-40, as Celebrity Health & Fitness previously reported.

Coco revealed on her blog that her weight loss and fitness secrets are a portion-controlled high-protein diet, weightlifting, yoga, and cardio exercise on the treadmill and stationary bike.

Coco, who’s married to rapper Ice-T, got breast implants at age 18, but denied butt implants or other butt-enhancing plastic surgery were responsible for her hourglass figure.

Coco’s weight loss tips, diet and exercise regimen include the following:

My cardio regimen consists of 25 minutes of sprinting on the treadmill 3 times a week or I take a boxing, Zumba, kickboxing, dance or body-sculpting class. I even take my dogs jogging at the park. I try to confuse my body & not repeat my routine every day.

I wear a sauna sweatsuit to the gym and sweat it out for 30 minutes on treadmill sometimes. I feel 5 pounds lighter. It’s mostly water weight that you lose but it’s also rejuvenating and detoxifying.

I don’t diet! I just eat small portions of food throughout the day & don’t eat a lot of sweets. I start the day w/yogurt or oatmeal and fish oil pills.

Lunges, lunges, and more lunges are the best way to keep your butt and thighs tight. I hold 10-pound weights in each hand when I do mine.

Protein is key to losing weight & also building muscle.

The only way you’ll see ripped abs is eat less fattening foods. PERIOD! You don’t have to take all fats out, just lower your intake of meals a little. I do ab exercises 5 days a week then top it off 20 min cardio.

In order to get in shape fast u have to incorporate weight training and cardio together. Don’t skip one. You’ll burn more calories.

Throw on 10-pound ankle weights when u can! Try it when walking your dog. This really tones the legs.

An aerobic workout will boost your metabolism for hours afterwards. Moving your body will burn the fat off your abs. I love the treadmill.

Add 30 minutes cardio to your workout. I like the treadmill and stationary bike. Sprint for 5 minutes as hard as you can, then back off for a min. Repeat.
