A few summers ago, Jennifer Love Hewitt was roasted in the press for gaining pounds that seemed to settle on her thighs and rear end. Last night, at the 100th episode anniversary party for her show The Ghost Whisperer, she wore a tight spandex dress that revealed she’d gain a few pounds. Her legs, hips, and thighs looked their heaviest since she dropped those pesky pounds a few years ago.

Jennifer Love Hewitt is currently being blasted for gaining weight, but a closer examination shows that she has been gaining weight for some time. In the 1999 photo, she looks a bit underweight; for instance her arms are very thin and her clavicle is very visible. In the 2004 photo, her clavicle is less prominent, her arms look average size for her frame, and she is pear shaped (larger on the bottom than the top).

Here she is at a recent Oscars party. Jennifer took a great deal of criticism for her heavy appearance in this outfit. Many comments were left on various blogs calling her overweight. I don’t think she is overweight, but compared to how she originally looked when she was first in the spotlight, she is undeniably much heavier. She carries too much weight on her bottom half and obviously does not exercise.
