A source alleged to Life & Style that Jennifer has been losing weight and that the divorce had an impact on her mood. They also added that working out has been helping her keep "sane." Jennifer was always big on keeping her figure right and shared to her fans her diet and exercises in the past.

The source said: "She’s dropped so much weight in such a little amount of time that it’s got to be anxiety related. Jennifer hates the direction her life has taken, and she can’t control what Ben’s doing but she can manipulate her diet and exercise regime."

They added: "She’s working out like crazy, mornings and afternoons for hours at a time."

It could also be to perhaps keep her mind of rumors that have been spiraling about Ben allegedly moving on already with Kathleen 'Kick' Kennedy . The pair were reported to have been spotted hanging out at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Many believe that the reason for their split was because of Jennifer's documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told, which focused on the making of her album and her relationship with Ben. She publicized their relationship in the documentary, which got a lot of attention.
