Jennie Garth, Before and After

Today is Jennie Garth's 41st birthday, and she looks amazing!

Garth, who lost 30 pounds since her divorce from Peter Facinelli last year and was recently snapped looking amazing in a bikini while vacationing in Mexico, says she's "trying to juggle everything: my kids, my career, and if I'm lucky, some sort of personal life."  She says her body transformation came when she realized she had became a shadow of her former self.

She credits her weight loss to a combination of eating smaller portions, consisting of a diet of Greek yogurt, salads, salmon and an exercise regime of lightweight gym training twice a week, hiking and personal training sessions.

She says that she didn't push herself, gently losing 1-2lbs a week over the course of six months.  She sips on coconut water to stay hydrated and to curb cravings.

In my opinion, Jennie looked just as beautiful before her weight loss.  Loved her on 90210, and voted for her on Dancing With The Stars.  So glad she's found happiness again.  Happy Birthday, Jennie!

"If I've learned anything it's that I am strong enough to do this on my own." - Jennie Garth (A Little Bit Country on CMT)

Jessica Simpson has certainly had her fair share of weight problems, especially over the past year. As the first guest on Katie Couric's new show 'Katie' last month, she stated that she had put on more weight than she had intended during her pregnancy. She went on to say that losing the weight is "definitely a challenge".

Jessica is the new spokeswoman for 'Weight Watchers', and has been using their 'PointsPlus' system to lose the weight. On 'Katie', she said she had currently lost 40 pounds since the birth of her daughter in May 2012.

Christina Aguilera, Before and After Weight

With the recent premiere of NBC's The Voice, one cannot help but notice that Christina Aguilera has put on weight. Just one year ago she was in excellent shape, during the filming of Burlesque, in which she starred with Cher. Christina's weight gain first became noticeable around the time of the film's premiere last Fall. One thing's for sure, her fuller figure hasn't taken away her confidence... she has a great attitude on The Voice.

Once again, even a celebrity can struggle with their weight.

Christina Aguilera Addresses Her Weight:

"I've been in this for a long time. I came out on the scene when I was 17 years old. You can never be too much of anything. You can never be too prefect, too thin, too curvy, too voluptuous, this, that. I've been on all sides of the spectrum.. [Every] female in this business at one time or another has had criticism… I'm very confident in my body. I think my video works over the years have spoken to that… I've been no stranger to being very comfortable in my own skin… As long as I'm happy in my own skin, that's all I need, that's all the confirmation I need. I'm happy where I am, I have a boyfriend that loves my body, I love my body, my son is healthy and happy. That's all that matters."
