In a recent interview with Allure magazine, Fergie of The Black Eyed Peas, addressed her ever growing and shrinking physique with an adamant declaration that she is NOT pregnant. Sure, she frequently gains and loses weight on a regular basis, but she blames this struggle on a weakness for fast food. “I think people think that I’m pregnant sometimes because my weight fluctuates. My problem is my discipline. I see a Jack in the Box or a DelTaco, and I will impulsively want it. I’m a work in progress in that area. I gain and lose weight everywhere from the thighs up.”
I don’t think any one in their right mind could pick on this singers fine physique, but the fact of the matter is that she’s a human like everyone else and a five to 15 pound swing on her frame makes a significant difference. Especially when she has to wear scanty little pop star clothes. What does she do to get back down to her favorite weight? “I have a meal-delivery service: DietDesigns. They’re amazing—they’ll have butter lettuce and avocado and pink grapefruit. They do butternut-squash enchiladas, which are really good. I also get these pressed juices delivered to my house, so I get all these different and wonderful vegetables.”
At the end of the day, all of the fame and fortune in the world doesn’t immunize people from exercising restraint, discipline and their ability to make great choices. Fergie gets off track, but then she resorts back to what we should all be doing all the time. Making wise eating choices and exercising vigorously on a regular basis.
