A sandwich is a proper meal, says Jagger ballerina as she shows off post-baby body

- By Alisha Rouse

FOR most new mothers, finding even five minutes to look after yourself can seem like an impossible task.

But Melanie Hamrick, Mick Jagger’s ballerina girlfriend, gave birth 11 months ago – and still manages to fit in three hours a day at the gym.

The 31-year-old revealed she runs more than 6km a day before a gruelling weights workout. She added that she doesn’t eat whole portions of food – and described a sandwich as a ‘nice, proper meal’.

Sharing her gruelling exercise regime, she told W Magazine: ‘I go to the gym every day. At least three hours a day.’

The American ballerina met Jagger, 74, three years ago, and returned to dancing four months after giving birth to son Deveraux Octavian Basil.

Talking about her diet, she said: ‘I will get a nice, proper meal like a sandwich before the show tonight and then I will eat afterwards... If you want to lose weight, you eat less. It’s just a fact.’
