Former gym rat Gwen Stefani has thrown in the towel on exercise. "This past year, I kind of stopped working out. I think my body just needed a break. And so I did that and focused more on feeling good as opposed to beating myself up," she recently told Marie Claire UK in an interview.While recording and promoting No Doubt's sixth studio album, Push And Shove , the singer, clothing designer, wife, and mother of two decided that working out, something she once felt she "had to do," had to go. Last year, Stefani claimed she was addicted to exercising, according to the magazine.
