I have always thought Queen was radiantly beautiful. I also have tipped the scale at 250 but did not feel the same about myself. When Queen came on TV announcing her journey with Jenny Craig, I immediately went to the store with my food stamps and bought a months worth of portion controlled Weight Watcher Smart Ones and Lean Cuisines, Campbell’s Healthy Request Soups, Progresso Weight Watcher 0 Soups and tons of produce. I could not bear to see Queen weigh less than me so the race is on as far as I’m concerned. I’m happy for her and happy for me! I’m gonna get healthy!

I understand the desire to lose weight, but I cannot afford Jenny Craig. It is not Queen Latifah’s fault that a large majority of her fans cannot afford such a plan, but she has always stood up and shouted that being ‘well-fed’ and thick was okay. Does Jenny Craig equates to healthy lifestyle? Maybe, but Latifah has a personal trainer, so health should not be an issue. I love Latifah, since her “Ladies First” days, when her hair was shaved on the sides and back, but I cannot help but believe that she has fallen prey to good ol “Hollywood”. I overheard 2 young girls in the hair salon, about 15 years of age, and they could not believe that their idol, was using an organized food plan to promote weight loss, after being so absolute about staying ‘as is’.
