After losing so much weight Jennifer Hudson has been inspired to not only inspire other people in her community to get healthy and lose the weight but she is going to go one step further by providing a instrument to assist them in reaching their weight loss goals.
CHICAGO (AP) — Singer and actress Jennifer Hudson hopes to show her commitment to a healthier lifestyle with the opening of a new weight loss center in Chicago.
The Chicago native will open the Jennifer Hudson Weight Watchers Center on Tuesday. Hudson has lost 80 pounds (36 kilograms) and is a Weight Watchers spokeswoman. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is expected to attend the event in the city’s Hyde Park neighborhood on the South Side.
Weight Watchers says it will donate a portion of the center’s revenue to a foundation in honor of Hudson’s late nephew, Julian King. In October 2008, the bodies of Hudson’s mother and brother were found in the family’s home. King’s body was found days later in a vehicle. All three had been shot.
This is fantastic news.. Giving back to the community.. I’ll drink to that.

Beautiful lady, not sure why people be trippin on her weight. She has a nice figure. I tell people you want to keep your weight under control as you get older it looks different and its hard to come off. She’s doing a good job.
She’s fine regardless of her weight. I remember Chris Rock joking, “I know (dudes) that’d push Beyonce down a flight o’ stairs to get at Jennifer Hudson!” Chicago has plenty of ethnic, fresh, Afrocentric and alternative spots that serve healthy, delicious foods. All about portions and movement. Don’t eat a WHOLE deep dish pizza. Go for a walk after. Baby steps.
Hey now thats my homegirlI from my home town the chi town Good I love this GBY Jennifer
Next time you come to Chicago , have a meal with me. It may not be slimming, but it will be good.

Jennifer Looks Fabulous & She Won’t Have Problems Selling People Cuz She Can Testify…
That’s lady is doing her thing!

Jennifer does look great but I don’t think she lost the weight just to be skinnier – from an interview she did she said her health was a big concern especially since she became a mother. I knew when I watched her on American Idol she was gonna make it big. Congrats to her especially after all she has been through!
