Jessica Simpson looks unrecognisable in yoga pose after seven stone weight loss

Jessica Simpson has sent temperatures soaring in a skin-tight workout outfit while striking a fierce yoga pose.

The singer, actress and fashion designer, 40, showed off her remarkable weight loss since giving birth to daughter Birdie last year.

Posing in a fierce warrior stance, Jessica, 40, showed how far she's come as she donned a gorgeous set of yoga leggings and a sports bra.

Since welcoming her little girl in March last year, Jessica, who also shares eight-year-old Maxwell and seven-year-old Ace with hubby Eric Johnson, has shed a jaw-dropping 100lbs.

The mum-of-three shed the seven stone with a combination of exercise and healthy eating.

The star, who's acting highlights include The Dukes of Hazzard, Entourage and Blonde Ambition, unveiled her toned arms and washboard abs as she held strong in a warrior two pose.

Jessica revealed a sneak peak of her ample cleavage while showing off her trimmed jaw line profile as she looked straight over the tips of her fingers.

Showing off her trim waist in the high-rise leopard print leggings, she explained: "Starting the week with a warrior mindset aligned with the beauty of the sunset

The star recently took time to reflect on her past addiction battle.

Jessica admitted she spiralled into substance abuse as a method of coping with her crippling anxiety and insecurities.

Speaking on SiriusXM, the singer/actress, who has now been sober for three years, revealed: "I didn't even realise how much I was drinking and how much I was suppressing.

"I thought it was making me brave, I thought it was making me confident and it was actually the complete opposite. It was silencing me."

She added: "It just ended up coming to a surface. I knew a lot of it was coming up, coming up and I couldn't suppress it any more.

"The alcohol wasn't numbing anything. It wasn't numb anymore. I was just numb.

"I couldn't even understand stuff that was coming out of my mouth. It didn't sound like me."

Jessica opted to seek out counselling for support, recalling: "My therapist was like, 'Wow, I can't believe somebody can cover that much trauma and fear and awareness. It takes people their whole life to discover those things.

"I really had to get back inside of the person that I am. When you do that self-reflection, it's very empowering. It takes a lot of courage.

"I can promise anyone on the other side of that fear, that courage is so beautiful and it's one of the most rewarding things and decisions I've ever made in my life, and I never thought I would have to make that decision."
