Federline shuns his wife beater tank top and oversized shirt for a decent suit during an interview with Access Hollywood's Maria Menounos as he talks about his battle with depression that led to his weight gain.

Although he seems lean now, viewers will be able to see him with a fuller figure at the start of the reality show in February.

But how did he get the pounds in the first place? The former back-up dancer said depression led him to laze off.

K-Fed admitted that his divorce from the "Circus" star was one of the reasons why he had gotten depressed, saying, "A number of things between, I mean, everybody knows what happened with me and Brit. I'm not going to say that's the total cause of it but, I mean, just not being happy with myself was probably the main part of my depression."

And though their highly-publicized divorce started off acrimoniously, he said that he has come into a place where he can be friends again with the singer.

He currently has the sole physical custody of his two sons with Spears.

"Celebrity Fit Club: Boot Camp" will also include his ex-girlfriend and baby mama, Shar Jackson, whom he left for Spears.
