This past Friday night Jennifer Hudson told Jay Leno her husband, David Otunga is a little uncomfortable with her new figure.

She adds, "He fusses at me like, 'Why do you have to have to get all dressed up to go out, and why can't you just go out like you used to?' And I'm like, 'I'm a walking billboard now, honey!'"

Hudson revealed that her 80-pound weight loss was sparked by the pregnancy and birth of her son, David Jr.

The first "red flag" was when Jennifer realized that people couldn't tell she was pregnant; so after giving birth to her son, David Jr., via Cesarian, she realized she couldn't do much right away other than walk, so she started walking for 30 minutes a day.

"[t]hat started me on my journey and then eventually I teamed up with Weight Watchers," she says of the routine.

"He's getting adjusted to it," she says of Otunga. "He's not really into change that much."
