Ciara shared an update on her weight loss journey on Instagram, hinting at the progress she has made.
The singer, 38, posted a slideshow of pictures on Thursday, April 25, captioning it with, “Lil Dump … the last slide is life🫶.” The photos showed Ciara spending time with her family and friends, as well as pictures of her outdoors and in the recording studio. One of the images included a scale.
Ciara recently shared her plan to lose weight after giving birth to her fourth child. She is a mother to Sienna, 6, Win, 3, and Amora, 4 months, with her husband Russell Wilson, whom she married in 2016. Ciara also has a son named Future Zahir, 9, from a previous relationship.
On April 13, Ciara took to Instagram to talk about her weight loss journey. She mentioned her goal to shed 70lbs after having her baby, while also preparing for a show and tour, and managing her businesses. In the post, she was seen wearing a Nike hoodie with the words "tough s—t" printed on it. Ciara gave a shout out to all the mothers who are working hard to get back in shape, showing her support with the hashtag #MambaMentality.
Ciara received encouraging messages from her celebrity friends in the comments. Holly Robinson Peete wrote, "If anyone can do it, it's you." Busta Rhymes left crown emojis and Gabrielle Union added flexed biceps emojis.
In August 2023, Ciara and Wilson, who is 35 years old, excitedly shared the news of expanding their family. During public events, including one of her husband's NFL games in October 2023, the "Level Up" singer proudly showed off her baby bump.

She captioned Instagram pics of them posing on a football field, expressing her love for him. (Wilson was traded from the Denver Broncos to the Pittsburgh Steelers last month.)
Two months later, Ciara covered her baby bump with gorgeous gold leaf glitter at the Los Angeles premiere of her film The Color Purple. The detailing complemented her all-white ensemble, which included a button-up shirt, dress pants and a flowing white cape.
Just days after the premiere, she welcomed baby Amora into the world. In December 2023, she shared the first photo of her newborn, captioned with "Amora Princess Wilson 9lbs 1oz We Love You so much!"
Ciara has been documenting her weight loss journey on social media, proudly showing off her postpartum body. In a January Instagram video, she confidently strutted in a plunging black leather trench coat and matching thigh-high boots, declaring, "I still got the juice boo, buy a sippie!"
In a February Instagram video, she sported a maroon short-sleeved one-piece swimsuit on a pool deck. With flowing long locks and a drink in hand, she encouraged fans to embrace every stage of life.
