LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jennifer Lopez, who filed for divorce from Ben Affleck in August, has reportedly reunited with her estranged husband amid revelations about her diet choices during their relationship.

Jennifer Lopez has reportedly worked hard to maintain a physique reminiscent of her younger years. Her trainer, Tracy Anderson, shared insights into Lopez's meals, emphasizing that they are meticulously crafted to support her active lifestyle. 

“I have her eating very clean because she needs really good fuel for all the things that she’s doing,” Anderson told People. “It’s all organic and it’s all very well thought out, with the balance of very high quality proteins and a lot of nutrient-dense food.”

 She added, “Everything is fresh; There’s nothing processed – just [protein powder] in a shake if we do a protein shake one day.”

Lopez has confirmed that she follows a balanced diet but insists it doesn’t prevent her from enjoying her favorite foods. “Throughout the years I’ve learned the importance of maintaining a healthier […] diet,” she said. “I still eat some of the foods I love, but in moderation. I don’t deprive myself.” 

However, sources claim she made significant adjustments to her diet while with Ben Affleck, incorporating more junk food to align with his lifestyle.

“She ate junk food with him just to show she could be the gal he wanted. She kept her figure, but it caused her to break away from her optimal body,” an insider told CheatSheet.

Now, following their split, Lopez is focused on getting back in top shape. The source added, “It’s a tough challenge but she’s enjoying it and wants Ben to see what he’s missing while flaunting what she’s got. Which will help her find a new guy when she’s good and ready”

What did Ben Affleck say of Jennifer Lopez’s diet plan?

Ben Affleck recently shared his thoughts on Jennifer Lopez’s diet during an appearance on 'The Drew Barrymore Show'. Offering a different perspective from previous sources, Affleck revealed that Lopez enjoyed a wide range of foods while they were together, and that this was entirely her choice. 

“Let me tell you something that’s going to upset you,” he said. “Jennifer just eats whatever she wants and whatever she wants; cookies, ice cream, everything.”

Affleck expressed his admiration for Lopez, noting that despite her indulgences, she maintained a rigorous workout routine. He found it remarkable that she looked as good as she did given her diet. 

“She works out. I mean, I work out too, but I don’t magically appear to be 20 years old you know what I mean? With perfect skin and the whole thing,” he joked.

“There’s no taking away the work ethic. The work ethic is real, the discipline is very real, but also the superhuman thing is real. She’s the most gorgeous woman in the world, she looks spectacular.”
