Brie Bella is itching to go back to working out as she revealed that she is only 13 pounds away from reaching her pre-baby weight.

The “Total Divas” star and husband Daniel Bryan welcomed their second child, Buddy, on Aug. 1. In a new Instagram Story, the former wrestling diva told her followers five weeks post-delivery that she only needs one more week in order to be cleared by the doctor to go back to the gym and exercise again.

“I've been dying to work out — it’s been killing me. I am, gosh, about 13 pounds away from my pre-weight with Buddy,” Bella said.

Aside from medical restrictions, Bella revealed another obstacle in her fitness journey, saying, “It's hot, right? This heatwave, I'm like, can we pls go away?”

She also asked her fans for some tips and tricks to get back in shape.

“I want to get in shape and I miss the gym, so let’s do this,” Bella said.

This came two weeks after Bella, who also shares daughter Birdie Joe with Bryan, shared a makeup-free snap of herself breastfeeding her newborn.

Brie gave birth just 22 hours after her twin sister, Nikki Bella, also welcomed her first child with fiancé Artem Chigvintsev. The former wrestlers documented their pregnancies on their respective social media accounts.

Back in January, the Bella sisters revealed that they were both pregnant and that they were due less than two weeks apart. At the time, they admitted that they were shocked when they found out that they were expecting kids at the same time.

Nikki and Brie also posed for an elegant nude maternity photoshoot in July, with the latter writing in an Instagram post, “To experience this with my sister during a time of uncertainty and turmoil has been a blessing.”

“As twins I kept wondering if our bodies were going to change the same or if we'd be different. It's crazy how identical our pregnancies have become...from cravings to symptoms,” Brie continued.

Nikki shared photos from the same shoot on her own page, along with the message, “I have embraced the changes of the human body, even though that can be tough at times. I have embraced the feeling of being uncomfortable knowing I am growing a life that will be one of my own.”
