The National Enquirer reports that Jess has enlisted her personal trainer in a desperate attempt to win back on -again, off-again rocker beau, citing a source.

Jessica Simpson Using Harley Pasternak to Reconcile With John Mayer?

The magazine reports: Jessica and John, who dated for 10 months before calling it quits in May, are both clients of hot Hollywood trainer Harley Pasternak. And Jess, 26, has been spilling her secrets about her love life to Harley in the hopes he passes the information on to John.

"It's a strange tactic - but Jess hopes it will make John jealous and win him back," said the insider. "She's been filling their workouts with talks of her 'busy love life,' even going as far as showing Harley photos of guys she's been dating."

With Harley's "5 Factor Diet" regimen, reports say Jess recently dropped at least two dress sizes and as much as 20 pounds this month. An insider insists the star's half-baked scheme exists - and that it doesn't seem to be working on 29-year old John. " When Harley told John one of the stories, John merely laughed and said: 'This is why I broke up with her! She has to resort to these high school games. It's absolutely immature and childish."
