The New Jennifer Hudson:Weight Loss or Photoshop?
“God pulled her through.”
That was the simple statement her assistant said that explained the whirlwind ordeal that Jennifer Hudson had gone through in 2008. The American worker had a rough autumn last year; J-Hud had a heartwrenching, tragic, devastating autumn.
But now she has announced plans for a 27-city tour with Robin Thicke, the first time since the tragedy that she will be put the kind of strain on her body and mental state that tests one’s mettle.
People close to her said she’s built for this; she’s a better person; she’s stronger.
She’ll need to be.
J-Hud herself explained in a recent interview her reasons for jumping back into the limelight as such: ”I have been active for the past four or five years, and to be working like that and then to just stop and all you hear is the clock ticking…” She shook her head. ”That will drive you crazy.”
Before competing in 2004’s Idol, the 5-foot-9 Jennifer Hudson, 25, had already accomplished a major feat: losing 60 pounds!
“I used to wear size 22,” the now size-10 Season 3 finalist (who cut out fried foods and jogged to slim down) tells Us Weekly magazine.
Yet, for Dreamgirls, the Golden Globe nominee actually had regain 20 pounds, which she piled on with cakes, cookies and inactivity.
“It bothered me to not workout,” she tells Us.
As soon as filming wrapped in May, Hudson returned to her healthy habits – and her fighting weight.
Jennifer Hudson’s Diet
“It’s all about healthy living,” says Hudson, whose staples include green salads, fish, chicken and cranberry juice. Her stay-energized snacks: cashews, almonds and raisins.
Jennifer Hudson’s Workout
Chicago-based trainer La-Fonza Alston gave Hudson a plan she can do on the road: squats, pushups and abs (four sets of 25 each), plus running. “I never would have guessed I’d be up at 4 a.m. to run,” she says. “I love it!”
Take-away Tip
Lean on family. Hudson tells Us her mom encouraged and supported her weight loss. “She is just pure love,” says the singer. [source: Us Weekly]

I love Jennifer Hudson, she is beautifful and I'm glad she's continuing her diet and workout ways.
shs lookin hot esp since i like a little thickness to them but i think this is photoshop
oh wow….is that really her? does she really look that good now or is it b/c she is sitting she looks so good. Either way….wowza. Now that is some curves.
curves indeed but i think its photoshop…and i was just told she pregnant
I have never seen that pic before but it is a horrible, horrible photoshop job. Look at how the right part of her suit hits her right thigh! They made part of it disappear! Not to mention how she has a 23 inch waist and 40 inch hips in the pictures AKA urban magazine girl proportions. That's not how she looks standing up.
clearly i never looked that close but i can see it….let me get this straight you are running and pregnant? …we need to cross link i just did a small piece on candice parker …
Diet or not that girl is hot.
true im just not sure if its her
