14 DAY TRIAL // Working out and sticking to a healthy diet can be good to get in shape by losing some pounds and becoming more toned, but also to mend a broken heart, as Jennifer Love Hewitt has recently learned. The actress tells the latest issue of Life & Style magazine that she has turned to exercising and paying more attention to what she eats to get over her ex fiancé.
Jennifer, once the hottest young actresses in Hollywood, as well as one of the most popular female presences of the moment, has often been criticized in later years for the way she looks. Nevertheless, hitting the gym now has nothing to do with that, as it does with trying to find some balance in herself to get over Ross McCall, her former fiancé. Of course, she also gets to get back in amazing shape, and that can only count as a plus, the actress says.
“Exercising has cut my anxiety way down, and it’s made me sleep better.” Jennifer adds, speaking about the many benefits of working out she has got to feel on her own. As for dieting, while she’s more careful as to what she eats, she too likes to cheat every once in a while, and she does so by allowing herself to have just one day a week with no restrictions whatsoever. This way, she shares, she makes sure that she sticks to her diet and no longer feels cravings for the remaining six days.
“I allow myself one really bad day a week when I can have all the cupcakes and whatever else I want to have. And the rest of the week, I just try to be really sensible about it.” Jennifer Love Hewitt explains for the aforementioned magazine. So, what with making a positive change in her life after the breakup, the actress has found a way to get through the bad experience in one piece, while also staying in great shape and being healthy.
Jennifer Love Hewitt met ex Ross McCall while shooting an episode for “Ghost Whisperer.” They dated for a year and then became engaged in November 2007. On January 5, 2009, People magazine reported that the two had broken off the engagement, just as rumors about plans for their upcoming wedding were starting to emerge.
