Last month Lauren spoke to Closer magazine and admitted that she doesn't want to get any bigger than her current size 12, she even admitted she's have lipo or a gastric band to get back in shape. Now it's come to light that Joey not understanding her weight battle was a factor in their breakup.
In the past, the 30-year-old opened up her weight struggles and admitted that her then boyfrined "doesn't understand" that it's more difficult for her to lose weight because she's a woman. She's also said that Joey would "have me locked in a room with a treadmill" if he wasn't in prison.
Now, a source has told Closer: "Joey didn't pressure her to lose weight, but he did encourage her in her efforts because he knew she could achieve her body goals again."
They added that Lauren would now like to lose some weight to get her "training body back".
