Jennifer Hudson and Weight Watchers Part Ways

Jennifer Hudson posted a couple of cryptic tweets Friday that suggested she was ending her long-term relationship with Weight Watchers. The singer, actress, and American Idol season 3 alum lost 80 pounds on the program.

“Sometimes you have to step back and let your work speak for you, and when that doesn’t work you walk away knowing you did your best. It’s been fun and a pleasure good luck to you all. @WeightWatchers,” Jennifer tweeted.

The tweets disappeared from her timeline as Jennifer released a statement to People magazine:

I have chosen to step away from my role as ambassador and I am excited for the year to come, with many new projects and lots of new music. My experience with Weight Watchers has truly been life changing. I am grateful for what I have learned throughout the process and will always take it with me.

That sounds much better than her tweets, that vaguely suggested something went wrong in the relationship. A rep for Weight Watchers added:

We’re confident Jennifer will remain a Lifetime Member. Jennifer’s healthy lifestyle and successful weight loss has inspired so many – from her friends and family to our members and staff, as well as people around the world – and we know that inspiration lives on.

She worked with the company for several years. She was a good ambassador, as she not only lost weight, but has successfully maintained. Anybody who struggles with weight knows how difficult that can be. Good luck to Jennifer and her future endeavors.
