Newly engaged and loving life, Jennifer Love Hewitt isn’t letting the press get her down. The bikini candids of JHew that surfaced last week showing a curvy, and very un-Hollywoodlike, body caused nearly every gossip blog and tabloid out there to comment on Jennifer’s weight gain. Yesterday Jen took a few minutes to respond to the criticism on her personal blog.

“Like all women out there should, I love my body. I know what I look like, and so do my friends and family. I’ve sat by in silence for a long time now about the way women’s bodies are constantly scrutinized. To set the record straight, I’m not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image. A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn’t make you beautiful. … To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini – put it on and stay strong.”

That’s right sista! Preach it girl!

We aren’t posting these pictures of Jennifer Love Hewitt to be cruel or to mock her recent weight struggle. We heart JHew here. We are posting them to give peace and hope to all our female readers who maybe carrying a few extra lbs this holiday season.  Even the most gorgeous, coveted Hollywood bodies take a beating during the holidays.

Eat, drink, be merry and please love your bodies and flaunt your imperfections like Jennifer!
