Jeannie Mai might have exited "Dancing With the Stars," early but the 41-year-old television personality and YouTuber isn't done turning heads. Jeannie is fresh from updating her Instagram with a sizzling, post-Thanksgiving sunbathe, with the "How Do I Look?" star showing off one flawless swimsuit body. Jeannie, who made major headlines on November 2 as she was rushed to hospital with potentially life-threatening conditioning epiglottis, has been recovering – but not without problems. Today's shot was goddess vibes all-around. Check it out below.

Scroll for the photo. It comes six days after Jeannie admitted "I'm really frail" as she revealed having lost weight. The California-born star is down 15 pounds following surgery, but her caption did suggest she's still got an appetite. For turkey.
The photo showed Jeannie sunbathing solo, poolside, and on a sun-drenched lounger. Jeannie, surrounded by an infinity pool opening up onto ocean horizons, rocked a dangerously-tiny and plunging chocolate-brown swimsuit, with closed eyes and folded legs upping the high-end vibes.

Jeannie, who was heartbroken as she had to bow out of Season 29 of "DWTS," brought in quite the array of compliments, with fans also spotting her caption: "Leftover turkey," she'd written with a joking emoji.
"A WHOLE THANKSGIVING MEALLLL!" tops comments with over 400 likes.
"You’ve got an amazing view! You look amazing too! Glad you are well now," another fan wrote. The post comes one week after Jeannie expressed thanks, in an unusual way as she called "friendship" a "wildly underrated medication."

Speaking to People this month, Jeannie confessed how being forced to drop out broke her heart.
"I was devastated, mortified, upset, I was in tears and I actually fought the doctor to say, ‘Can I just at least compete in this week’s competition?’ because I worked so hard on my Charleston, which was our next dance together with [pro partner] Brandon [Armstrong]."
Jeannie also stated: "I lost a lot of weight and strength, 15 pounds in total from DWTS and bed rest."

Following her surgery, Mai was advised to rest and "stay quiet" for two weeks. The popular former contestant, was, however, struggling to breathe as her swollen throat meant she couldn't eat.
"I couldn't eat anything for two weeks, so I was tube feeding there in the hospital for a week, and I had a nurse come in every two hours just to make sure I was breathing," she continued.
Jeannie's post today quickly brought in a celebrity like from 39-year-old pop singer Christina Milian. Fans are likely wishing Jeannie all the best.
