Taking a break from filming season two of Smash, JHud chatted up the mag about starting her own clothing line and how she is still adjusting to her new body. 

Check out some excerpts from the interview below: 

On how she feels after shedding the pounds:

"I’m getting used to my new self more than anything else. I got used to being plus-sized and knowing how to be that, whereas this is like, ‘Okay, who am I?’ I keep thinking that I probably need an extra-large or a large and the stylist is like, ‘No, you need a medium or a small.'"

On why she wanted to design her own clothing line: 

"I know what I like, and that’s what it’s all about. It’s like, who’s your fashion icon? Me. And no one but you knows what you feel most comfortable in. I look at each piece and think, ‘Could I wear that as big Jennifer or could I wear that now?’ I want to consider every girl."
