Jessica Simpson Losing Weight For Wedding, Can’t Keep Weight Off As She Gets Older
July 15, 2011 by Hollywoodite
Jessica Simpson admitted months ago that she wanted to lose weight to look good for her wedding to fiance Eric Johnson. Following the break-down and the end of her marriage to her first husband, Nick Lachey, Simpson put on a noticeable amount of weight; the difference being most evident if you look back at photos of her Dukes Of Hazard days – when she was almost alarmingly-thin – not even necessarily photos of her as a teenager. Pretty much, every second interview since then has asked about her fluctuating weight. It’s not that she’s heavy; she’s a cute girl, with cute curves. But she’s so petite in build that every pound shows, especially on her face and stomach.
Simpson – who reportedly doesn’t want to become “Jessica Johnson” because it sounds as though it were the name of an adult film star – has been working with trainer Tracy Anderson since Spring. By all accounts, Simpson has been looking slimmer and healthier in recent months. So the hard work paid off.
However, the singer is reportedly gaining all the lost pounds back. Well, one’s body isn’t so elastic and one’s metabolism not so forgiving after one hits 31-years-old (upon her 31st birthday, Johnson bought Simpson the below $15,000 orange Birkin purse of which she took a photo and about which she tweeted).
“Jess is freaking out over her figure. She dropped 20 lbs, this spring but gained 10 back,” a friend tells Star. “Since the beginning of June, she’s been working out two hours a day, six days a week. She’s constantly in a bad mood, nearly starving on a 1,500-calorie-a-day diet, and even admits she’s absolutely miserable instead of filled with happiness and excitement.”
Adds the source, “Poor Jessica, she should be basking in the glow of pre-wedding joy. Instead, she’s stressed to the max.” – via Star, Celebitchy.
So, the magazine is claiming that Simpson is literally starving herself. That’s a new one. Simpson, in interviews, proselytizes the virtues of working out with Anderson. It all seemed to be about the healthy lifestyle and working out.
Perhaps she’s restricting her intake of calories. That would make sense. But starving between June and her November wedding can’t be worth being miserable. She’s a girl who’s always admitted her love of junk food. Perhaps she’s really grouchy because she misses that?
