Barbra Streisand Saves Dieting Dollars

Barbra Streisand is dieting on a budget – she and her husband James Brolin have turned to Jenny Craig to lose weight.

"Oprah hired a personal nutritionist, but Barbra wants to save money, so they’re getting their meals from a Jenny Craig center,” a source told the New York Daily News.

Both Streisand and Brolin have packed on pounds of late, according to the Daily News.

The diva told Diane Sawyer on "Primetime Live” in September: "I’ve been eating like a pig” and "I hate exercising. It’s torture for me.”

But she added: "I’ve paid my dues. I can be a little fatter. What’s the difference, really?”

Seems she’s changed her attitude since then.

A Jenny Craig spokeswoman, Cozette Phifer, said there are about 50 to 60 celebrities on the plan now, but wouldn’t confirm if Streisand is one of them.

It's just easier not to have to think...you eat what they give you and for some people it works.

but Barbra wants to save money...

But why? It's not as though the woman is anywhere near broke.

Please, please, someone post some recent pics of Babs. We all need the laughs.

This will be fun, I can't wait until the Enquirer runs "Barbara the Hutt" photos on their front page.

I can be a little fatter. What’s the difference, really?

Big difference. The fatter she is, the greater the price she will fetch from the Jimmy Dean processing plant.

Babs, you want to lose a quick ten pounds?.............cut your head off

O' wait, that would be only about a 1/2 a pound. You know empty head syndrome. Of course that nose probably weighs in at about a pound. Give her a 1 1/2 pounds at best

Never mind.
