Jennifer Lopez’s declining health
“She’s lost so much weight in such a short amount of time that it’s likely anxiety-related,” a source previously told Life & Style, following Lopez’s TIFF red carpet appearance where she wore a skin-baring metallic dress, notably without Affleck’s tattoo. “Jennifer hates the direction her life has taken, and while she can’t control what Ben is doing, she can control her diet and exercise routine,” the source continued.

They think her intense dedication to staying in shape could be a method for dealing with her recent split. A few are concerned that this extreme approach might harm her.
