Jessica Simpson Reaches Goal Weight, Thanks Weight Watchers
Jessica Simpson has reached her goal weight.
Following the birth of her two kids, Maxwell, 21 months, and son Ace, seven months, Simpson struggled to get her pre-baby body back, but with the help of Weight Watchers, she is right where she wants to be -- and she couldn't be happier.
Simpson revealed the exciting news to her fans on social media earlier this week.
On Thurs., March 6, Simpson posted a photo of herself on Instagram with the caption, "...AND a white T-shirt!! #goalreached thx @weightwatchers."
A short time later, she revealed how she reached her goal.
"To anyone who's afraid to go to meetings-don't be! I promise, that's what got me to my goal! @WeightWatchers," she wrote on Twitter, along with a video link to her new commercial for Weight Watchers.
In the video, Simpson spoke of how group meetings kept her eye on the prize.
"When I started Weight Watchers I wasn't sure what to expect at the meetings, but I really love going -- I do! It reminds me that we don't have to do this alone," she said. "It's so much better to have some back up and to do it together because we all face similar challenges. The meetings keep me focused and motivated and I have a newfound determination that I'm really proud of. I can honestly say, I've never been happier."
Simpson and her fiance Eric Johnson, a former NFL tight end, have been loving life with their kids, but unfortunately, because of all the baby-making, their wedding has been pushed aside.
Simpson and Johnson began dating in May 2010, after Simpson's split from Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, and became engaged in Nov. 2010. Two years later, on May 1, 2012, they welcomed their first child, Maxwell Drew Johnson. Just over one year later, on June 30, 2013, their son, Ace Knute Johnson, was born.
Now that they have a full house, Simpson and Johnson are ready to tie the knot and are planning on doing so sometime this year.
During a Jan. 7 appearance on Good Morning America, Simpson spoke of her wedding, telling the hosts that although she and Johnson already feel "like an old married couple," they "need to get married."
