Ok, I think they care, but not to the extent that we thought they did. Because remember all those stories about Jessica Simpson‘s contract with Weight Watchers, and the deadlines they put her on, and about how she’d lose out on millions of dollars if she didn’t lose the weight fast enough? Yeah, apparently none of that was even true. Go figure.
From People:
Like many new moms, Jessica Simpson was eager to get her pre-baby body back after giving birth to daughter Maxwell Drew on May 1.
“For me, I really want to do something that is a lifestyle,” Simpson, 31, told PEOPLE later that month. “In the past I’ve been known to yo-yo diet.”
So in late May, the designer started Weight Watchers – for which she’s a spokesperson – and has been focused on losing weight gradually.
“She understands it’s a process,” a Simpson friend tells PEOPLE, adding that the star is “working very hard and she’s excited.”
As for rumors that there’s a deadline for her to lose her post-baby bulge, a rep for the weight-loss company says that’s untrue.
“Weight Watchers is in it for the long haul,” says a spokesperson. “We’re with her 100 percent as she develops a whole new relationship with food and activity.”
I just wonder how much of that is true and how much of that is just Weight Watchers trying to save face because they see how hard everyone is rooting for Jessica. Really, I don’t care what Jessica agreed to or if she’s breaking the contract she signed – I don’t care what she’s doing, period – but unless you’re giving her a friendly hug or a kind word or a pat on the back, then you can just leave her the f-ck alone. She is precious, lovely person with one of the most adorable babies in the world, and I won’t hear a bad word about her.
What’s that thing clipped to her shirt?
Damnit, I hate that picture.
If she would adopt a plant based diet she’d lose a bit. Her bf is vegan now so she should just follow what he eats. Get off the dairy.
I just want her to be healthy. It seems she started to gain weight even before she got pregnant. I’m not some super skinny bitch on some god awful platform for starvation. I just don’t want her to get diabetes or heart disease. Let her rebound from the labor and deliver, get used to having a baby around, and I hope she can give up the junk food. She’s a classically beautiful woman, and I don’t think she needs to be super skinny to be sexy.
I’d say Weight Watchers has about 4 million reasons why they care and you’ve got your head way too far into fairyland if you think they don’t. Honestly, what did you expect them to say? I kind of guessed you were sort of a sugary person, but I think a huge dose of insulin may be needed. Jessica Simpson is/was a jerk who made money off T&A and enforcing stereotypes. I see her having to lose all that weight as only the consequences of acting like a pig during her pregnancy. I’m sure it comes as quite a shock to her that the rules of life apply to her, too.
