14 DAY TRIAL // Jessica Simpson, now pregnant with her first child by fiancé Eric Johnson, has made no secret of how she has been indulging every one of her cravings while with child. The result is 40 pounds (18.14 kg) extra – and she's already thinking about how to shift them.
Amidst speculation that she struck a multi-million dollar deal with Weight Watchers, which will help her bounce back in excellent shape once the baby – a girl – is born, Jessica says she's eager for that to happen.
No woman really dreams of the day when she goes on a diet, but Jessica seems to be the exception.
Speaking with the latest issue of Hello! Magazine, which also carries photos from her baby shower of a couple of weekends ago, the pop star turned successful fashion designer says she's eager to start working on getting her pre-pregnancy body back.
“I feel like I could pop at any second,” she tells the mag, adding that she's gained about 40 pounds (18.14 kg) so far, but she's still gaining weight with every single day.
“I had a great pregnancy. Eating and not having to worry too much about it has been fun. Taking a break from working out has definitely been fun. But I’m ready for it to be over. I’m ready to have my body back!” the star gushes.
As noted above, Jessica is believed to have followed the example of other celebrity moms, in inking a deal with a world-famous weight loss program to help her lose the pregnancy weight.
After giving birth, she will probably go on the program as soon as her doctor allows her, and will reveal the results shortly after, when she becomes the official spokesperson of said program.
Weight Watchers is reportedly paying Jessica $3 million (€2.27 million) for the job, in a deal that will most definitely benefit both parties.
Mariah Carey did the same, but with Jenny Craig (now known solely as Jenny) and for an amount believed to be considerably smaller than what Jessica is going to get.
