Jersey Shore star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi hosted Bridezilla’s cake-eating contest in New York on Thursday, and she has apparently shed some pounds, with a keen ability to keep off the weight.

"Had a blast hosting Bridezilla's cake eating contest!!" she wrote on her Instagram blog. "Thank you @wetv for the opportunity !! #host…"

The reality star gave birth to Lorenzo Dominic in Aug. 2012 whose father is Jionni LaValle. The media questioned the star about how she was able to shed the 40 pounds after the birth of her son.

Although Snooki was thought to have been starving herself in order to try to lose weight, she claimed she lost weight through breastfeeding. However, other sources claimed that she had been taking drinking and taking laxatives.

The reality star had battled anorexia as a teenager, but Snooki said she used a healthy route to lose weight this time.

In a Dr. Oz show in March, the star said "If I can lose 42 pounds after giving birth six months [ago], I mean, anybody could do it. You just need the dedication, and you need to want to have your body back."

She said she kept to a strict gym routine, adding she also gets a workout by simply caring for her son. "If you can't make it to the gym, you can always work out with your baby," she told Us Weekly in March.
