Jessica Simpson Revives Singing Career After 70-Lb Weight Loss: How She Slimmed & Why She Won’t Do Reality Show

Jessica Simpson is flaunting her weight loss by slipping into a little black dress (LBD) that highlights her increasingly sleeker physique. The singer and mom of two has nothing to hide, so Jessica chose an LBD that also revealed her enviable cleavage, reported Us Weekly.

But although Simpson is always multi-tasking, Jessica made time for a date night with hubby Eric Johnson. For that outing, she chose slacks with a high waist that showed off her flat tummy.

With Maxwell, now 3, and Ace, now 2, Simpson has put the days when she was mocked by some for her pregnancy weight gain behind her. But it required hard work to take off the estimated 70 pounds, reported InStyle.

“I work out five days a week: three days with a trainer, doing a mix of strength training and cardio, and then I do cardio on my own the other two days,” said Jessica.

Simpson revealed that she motivated herself with the goal of looking healthy and rocking her wedding gown.

“I worked really hard because I wanted to appreciate being in a wedding gown again… I just wanted to look healthy,” added Jessica.

As for her diet, Simpson followed a combination of a vegan diet and Weight Watchers, as the Inquisitr reported. Jessica went on the vegan weight loss diet for about two weeks prior to her wedding.

What’s next for Simpson is a return to her singing roots, reported Today.

In recent years Jessica has become known for her reality TV show, fashion designer success, and even acting. But Simpson wants the world to relive her days as a pop singer.

“That’s how I started; that’s always [been] one of my biggest passions in the world,” explained Jessica. “I love to use my voice.”

But being a mom also is one of her passions, added Simpson. Even though she admitted that her joy over her new home recording studio is somewhat dimmed by the realization that her children will take it over, it’s clear that Jessica dotes on her kids.

“Maxwell is a great big sister. She’s at that age where she’s rolling her eyes at Ace a little bit,” revealed Jessica.

Simpson made it clear, however, that although she intends to return to singing while continuing her fashion designer career, there’s one part of her professional life that she doesn’t want to reboot. Since her reality show Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica ended in 2005, Simpson has no desire to try again.

“That’s very rear view [mirror],” stressed Jessica. “Having a camera on me at all times, I mean we all know I stick my foot in my mouth a little bit too much.”
