Well-Known Personalities Lose weight And Debut Their New Body

Janet Jackson

You might not have expected that one of the best artists and dancers of our time, with such an incredible figure, recently took some time off from the gym and strict diets. Janet is working on changing her silhouette and is progressing well, having lost more than 60 pounds to date. The final result will no doubt exceed even her history-making Super Bowl performance. Seriously though, she looks phenomenal! Well done, Miss Jackson!

Janet Jackson

Chris Pratt

The well known Marvel Super Hero was not recognizable when he starred as the chunky and sweet Andy Dwyer in Parks and Recreation. His body type certainly worked for his character, being the stereotypical lazy and dysfunctional employee that does the bare minimum. Since then, he has worked hard to return to his currently buff bod. much to the delight of his many fans. When he stepped into the shoes of Guardians of the Galaxy’s hero, people were amazed at his transformation.

Chris Pratt

Christian Bale

The actor is known for transforming his body to fit the character he is playing. This has meant both increasing and decreasing his weight. Doing this has gained him kudos from critics of his work. Most recently, he dropped a disturbing amount of body mass, to film The Machinist, and then retransformed into superhero Batman. The man went from extremely underweight, to an alrmingly malnourished and skeletal appearance, to buff and beefy and ready for action!

Christian Bale

Alec Baldwin

It seems as if Alec has been a part of the industry forever. He made the wise decision to earnestly control his weight gain when he was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. Things were clearly getting out of hand for the most famous Baldwin brother, as his propensity for over-eating and notorious sweet tooth were finally catching up with him. He still looked incredible, but clearly, things were getting out of hand at the Baldwin family’s dinner table.

Alec Baldwin

Mariah Carey

A lady with a big voice and an even bigger temperament, Mariah also seemed to be enlarging her body size over time. The good news is that she has changed her lifestyle to improve her health since then and has dropped over 70 pounds. While you might be shocked to see how curvy she became at one stage with the picture on the left, the transformation on the right is nothing short of jaw-dropping!

Mariah Carey

Al Roker

At his highest weight of 340 pounds, TV host, Al, made the choice to drastically change his attitude towards health and fitness. Currently, he is much healthier and happier at 190 pounds. Roker was one of those celebrities that was pressured by producers to maintain a certain unbearable weight level to better go with his boisterous and hilarious television persona. Thankfully, he broke free of the pressure and succeeded to own his body.

Al Roker

Randy Jackson

Being diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes, shocked Randy into changing his ways in 2008. Sadly, too many people let unhealthy eating get the best of them and their health before they become committed to their health. Still, with major eating and lifestyle alterations, he has lost over 100 pounds. A phenomenal achievement for someone who spends many hours at a time sitting around for their profession with American Idol!

Randy Jackson

Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi

After giving birth, Nicole’s weight ballooned and she had to work hard to lose the excess bulk. Most women tend to pick up a fair amount of mommy weight when they deliver, and it is a beautiful and natural process. After managing to get rid of over 100 pounds, the results are apparent on her Instagram page. She is looking fantastic and living her life with gusto while caring for her child.

Nicole Snooki Polizzi

Raven Symone

Raven is a well-known actress, having been in the industry since childhood. She picked up weight over the years and found the secret to losing it, as steadfast dieting and exercise, almost like she was psychic! While this might seem obvious to some, finding the right balance between healthy eating and an active lifestyle can be highly challenging for many. in 2011, she confirmed she had lost over 70 pounds.

Raven Symone

Graham Elliot

Master Chef fans view Graham as a staple on Master Chef but have noticed a huge change in his appearance over time. In fact, 150 pounds difference, down from 400 pounds in 2013. We cannot blame him for eating more than his fair share, as being a judge on the iconic cooking competition involves plenty of snacking and sampling. We love how proud he looks of his new body in the picture on the right!

Graham Elliot

John Goodman

Who does not recognize this huge guy? The iconic actor has never dropped a noticeably large amount of weight in a relatively short period of time, rather, he has reprogrammed his mind to reject his previous habit of eating all the wrong things. His improved health shows. He looks good. Goodman was a huge fan of almost everything unhealthy – drinking, smoking, and eating! Take those things away from a person and watch them change into a new one!

John Goodman

Chumlee

Gosh, Chumlee and his ‘Pawn Stars’ co-star, Cory Harrison have dropped a jaw-dropping amount of weight. The two must have sat down together, after a particularly gluttonous barbecue, and made a blood oath that they would begin taking care of themselves better. We must track him down to find out how he did this. Very impressive Chumlee. We hope that he is as good to his customers as he was to himself.

Chumlee

Paula Deen

Well known on cooking channels as the go-to comfort food guru, Paula was diagnosed as being diabetic, which jump-started her change in eating habits. She is now a self-confessed smoothie junkie, losing 35 pounds so far. So get into the kitchen and follow her example. Nutritious smoothies are weight loss friendly. Just make sure that you do not consume too much sugar through an abundance of fruit, as smoothies can actually have the opposite effect when trying to lose weight.

Paula Deen

Queen Latifah

This inspiring and influential actress changed her work out program to alleviate the tedium of the one she was following. We have all started a workout routine, only to give up after a while because we simply could not find the motivation. Queen Latifah, please give us your strategy? This led to greater weight loss, but it helps that she can juggle her busy life and weight loss plan with ease.

Queen Latifah

Rebel Wilson

If you have watched the movie ‘Pitch Perfect’ you probably know Rebel as her character “Fat Amy “. Here is another celebrity whose charms and appeal were largely based on their appearance. In 2016, Rebel kick-started her road to fitness, after catching the hiking bug. Her new activity has resulted in a 15-pound weight loss so far. This Australian actress should be an example to all of us wanting to improve our fitness levels…

Rebel Wilson

Chrissy Metz

While filming American Horror Story: Freakshow, Chrissy admitted she was battling depression and low energy. She was at the level where her happiness and motivation were beginning to wilt under the strain of her body. When she appeared in This is Us, fans were astounded at how good she looked. She had lost 100 pounds and seemed to be much healthier psychologically for it. You can see how much happier she is in the bottom right picture.

Chrissy Metz

Chaz Bono

We have seen Chaz lately on Dancing with the stars and he is looking good. His obvious weight reduction has him looking very smart. He can also bust a few more moves than he previously could, and both judges and audiences have been left dazzled by his improved speed and flair. We want to see Bono go on to win this competition, as he was worked harder for it than most of his co-stars and competitors!

Chaz Bono

Keely Shaye Smith

Like many women who go through labor, Keely Shaye Smith started gaining weight right after the birth of the couple’s children. Smith is a well-known television personality and not only the wife of Mr. Bond. As a working mom keeping a strict diet and maintaining a workout schedule isn’t so simple, and yet she reached an astonishing 100 pounds lost goal! We cannot help but notice that Pierce preferred her as she was back in the day!

Keely Shaye Smith

Kirstie Alley

Always statuesque, Kirsty now in her 60’s looks better than she has during the past. She lost 50 pounds using the Jenny Craig program, even becoming a representative herself. We are sure that being one of Scientology’s most famous representatives also had a big part in her weight loss motivation. This is the type of organization that needs its top members looking nothing but their best, as if being a part of this cult is incredibly productive and beneficial…

Kirstie Alley

Adele

Her magnificent voice had earned her many Grammy awards, but Adele was not eating correctly and decided to start by cutting out sugar. This alone resulted in her dropping weight. You will not believe how different Adele looks today. You can forget about the myth that being bigger makes your voice better and louder – that is a whole lot of hot air! We love how magical you look today, Adele!

Adele

Melissa Rauch

Rauch played the funny and cute character of Dr. Bernadette Rostenkowski on The Big Bang Theory hit show for 12 sessions. The female comedian has a petite figure that always appeared chubbier on screen due to her character clothing choice. Melissa maintains a healthy lifestyle that includes a balanced diet and exercise routine to keep her in shape. Right after the birth of her second child, Rauch chose to go under a breast reduction surgery and now even looks skinnier and tighter than ever!

Melissa Rauch

Alana Thompson ‘Honey Boo Boo’

During the filming of reality the reality TV show, Alana Thompson was known for her cute pudgy body. Due in part to her mothers’ extreme weight loss, and the hit series ‘Mama June: From Not to Hot’, Alana has jumped on the weight-loss bandwagon herself and maintains a strict diet excluding sugar and simple carbs. This was a turn about from her 2017 statement that she was not dieting as she loved her body as it was. She has also now dropped a few dress sizes.

Alana Thompson ‘Honey Boo Boo’

Melissa McMcarthy

Losing 50 pounds since we saw her performance as Sookie Saint James in the Gilmore Girls, Melissa is now stunning and enjoying her career as an actress/comedian. Melissa was pressured into maintaining her heavy weight by producers due to it fitting in with her stereotypical ‘funny fat girl’ characters that she generally played in films like Bridesmaids and Identity thief. Looks how gorgeous and happy she is in both pictures!

Melissa McMcarthy

Susan Boyle

Discovered on Britain’s Got Talent, Scottish Susan, showcased to the world her amazing singing talent. Also diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, she was told by her doctors to get rid of some of her excess weight. 30 pounds down and she looks incredible. She has cut out all sugar and walks two miles at a time for exercise. Her adherence to her diet plan has proved you can do it if you try.

Susan Boyle

Carrie Fisher

Princess Leia is an unforgettable character from Star Wars, played by Carrie. Although she has passed away, Carrie reprised her legendary role in Star Wars, prior to her death. Always being tracked by the media, she shed excess pounds for this reprisal role. Being one of the most iconic sex symbols in the 80s, the legendary metal bikini that she wore in Return of the Jedi while being the evil Jabba the Hut’s prisoner was a testament to classic beauty and fitness.

Carrie Fisher

EJ Johnson

It is well known to all that The #RichKids of Beverly Hills star had gone under a gastric sleeve surgery in 2014 – but how is he maintaining his 180 pounds weight loss? EJ is keeping a healthy, busy lifestyle, which includes small meals throughout the day and short workouts to keep energized and in movement. Gastric bypass surgery is only one part of the weight loss mission, as failing when managing eating disorders like binge eating can easily stretch your stomach back to its original size.

EJ Johnson

Ruben Studdard

American Idol’s second champion, Ruben has decreased his weight by 112 pounds since his first appearance in 2003. While Studdard’s winning of a Grammy Award in 2003 made him one of the best new artists of modern times, we are sure that the achievement of losing so much weight was another leading win for the rhythm and blues artist. He was part of The Biggest Loser in 2013, where he obviously did very well, despite not winning.

Ruben Studdard

Jennifer Hudson

Here we have another incredibly successful American Idols contestant, who despite no winning the 2004 season, still went on to have a fantastic career as a singer and actress. Despite having achieved such incredible fame and fortune, her eating habits were less than spectacular. If you eat junk food, your health will suffer. Weight Watcher, Jennifer stopped the unhealthy eating habits and monitored what she fed her body, resulting in improved health.

Jennifer Hudson

Drew Carey

Much loved Drew Carey, Clevelands icon, made the decision to drop pounds so he could take over as host of The Price is Right. Rock on forever Drew! When you have such an illustrious motivation, it is easy to stay committed to your weight loss journey! We love how his retro sense of style, with his zany glasses and grey suits, has remained unchanged, other than the suit sizes themselves.

Drew Carey

Ronnie Ortiz

The Jersey Shore reality star became the series resident hot guy, but let the fame distract him by neglecting his fitness routine. Ironically, his beauty and fitness had propelled him to fame, leading to a lapse in his commitments to fitness and ‘aesthetics.’ He quickly packed on the extra girth but has rectified this lapse and is back on track. We can already see the results of his new regime.

Ronnie Ortiz

Star Jones

This straight-talking actress was not shy to admit she was morbidly obese. She did undergo gastric bypass surgery to assist her in her weight loss goal. There is nothing wrong with going the extra (and expensive) mile to reach your goals in this way. She needed all the help that she could get, however, as being an author, television personality, journalist, and diversity advocate require all the stamina and energy that you can gather.

Star Jones

Wendy Williams

On her self named show, Wendy discusses many topics that not only entertain but educate her viewers. Sometimes, the topic of choice is herself. She has said on her show that she lost 50 pounds, slowly and steadily, over time. She also advised her fans to realize that any change takes work and is part of the journey towards your final goal. The only thing that did not get smaller was the size of Williams’ mouth.

Wendy Williams

Jordin Sparks

Dieting is not easy and Jordin decided to lose her excess bulk slowly, as she did not want to feel deprived at any stage of her weight loss journey. She reduced her weight by 50 pounds in just over a year. This is still an excellent amount of weight to lose, and there really is no standard to compare yourself so long as you remain committed and on the right track.

Jordin Sparks

Kelly Osbourne

Some dieters use dubious methods to drop weight quickly. Not Kelly. She lost 42 pounds by watching the size of her portions at mealtimes and making sure she exercised daily. She has said that her body image has improved and she sees herself as an individual and no longer compares herself to others. Osbourne had struggled with her weight from the time that she was young, and finally overcoming her related physical and mental challenges was an enormous achievement for the rock and roll royal.

Kelly Osbourne

Khloe Kardashian

Khole is looking really svelte these days. Her lifestyle changes and exercise regimes have resulted in a 25-pound loss. It is amazing how little weight one needs to lose before they begin to see incredible changes. The Kardashians in general have gone through many physical changes over time, even changing genders at one stage! In this day and age, people are freeing themselves from almost any type of limitation, whether made by conservative society or their physical shortcomings.

Khloe Kardashian

Amber Riley

It is well documented that a rapid cut down in weight can be dangerous. Many people will follow harmful or scientifically unproved fad diets, begin working out beyond their physical limitations or even develop eating disorders, all in the pursuit of society’s beauty standards. Amber just started to eat correctly and her dress size decreased. This is probably the way to do it when embarking on your program to fitness.

Amber Riley

Stephenie Meyer

The author of the hugely popular Twilight Sagas’ that had so many young ladies drooling over Jacob or Edward, used to gym with weights and do elliptical workouts. She discovered that running reduced her weight faster and more efficiently over the last 12 months. She is not sure yet if she enjoys running or not, but it sure works for her. That is what happens when you come out of your comfort zone!

Stephenie Meyer

Al Sharpton

Reducing his scale reading from 305 pounds to 129 pounds, was an impressive feat from the Reverend. It took around two years but was well worth it and he now as a matter of habit, eats healthily and works out to keep the weight off. Sharpton proved that you are never too old to start exercising and eating healthily, so if you feel like you are too old and that your body cannot handle the stresses of fitness, think again!

Al Sharpton

Penn Jillette

Whilst Penn, from magician duo Penn & Teller, is extremely tall, his weight of 322 pounds was unhealthy and poor eating habits had led to a 90% blockage in the arteries in his heart. Drastic measures need to be taken to turn his health around. He embarked on a 14-day potato diet and then added vegetables after that. So far, he is 100 pounds lighter. A phenomenal achievement indeed for the magician!

Penn Jillette

Adam Richman

Man Vs Food star, Adam, eats, sleeps and well..eats food. He cannot get away from it. He did, however, realize he needed to change his relationship with food to improve his health, as he did tend to overdo it. He went Vegan and now looks like a changed man. If you have any hesitations over the vegan diet, then know that you can easily lose a lot of weight when you cut out fatty animal products.

Adam Richman

America Ferrera

Synonymous with the series Ugly Betty, America is well known in many homes. She opted on her own to eradicate any empty calories from her diet as part of her goal of being the best version of America. Neither is she ugly! We love how the star went against all the negative associations that she had with her character to ‘glow up’ into a phenomenal standard for fitness and beauty. She is completely glamorous and well put together, nothing like her iconic character!

America Ferrera

Rosie O’Donnell

The media has not been kind to Rosie regarding her excess weight. Every loss or gain was reported on in-depth and in great detail. Like her talk show counterpart, Oprah Winfrey, Rosie went through a series of rises and falls in her body weight. While she has invited much negative attention for some controversial statements, this kind of scrutiny was totally unfounded. Rosie sure silenced them when she lost 70 pounds.

Rosie O Donnell

Mark Labbett

The British TV star at his heaviest weighed 378lbs – in 2019 he revealed a newly transformed body. The process was detailed in a series of tweets about his workouts, diet, and struggles. speculations were made about the incentive that pushed Mark into his new look. Many associated it with the trouble he was having with his wife, and that was part of his efforts to make it work. After Mark’s tremendous dedication and hard work, he is now enjoying a healthy weight, fit figure, and giving his marriage another try with his wife Katie.

Mark Labbett

Shonda Rhimes

Pleas from her children spurred Shonda to declare that she would lose 130 pounds. What many people fail to consider is how an individual’s intense weight can affect their loved ones. While many people will ignore their family members’ best wishes, Rhimes clearly listened to reason! She began by doing intense cardio programs that got her used to her new fitness regime. She paired this with a great eating plan and is progressing well.

Shonda Rhimes

Jonah Hill

This successful dieter needs all our accolades. Since we have seen him in Superbad, he has reinvented himself and it took us a while to realize who we were looking at! Sadly, Hill suffered an incredible amount of mockery and shaming for his body weight, and was locked into obesity by producers and directors who forced him to stay at an unhealthy size due to the ‘hilarity’ that it added to his comedic performances.

Jonah Hill

Kim Kardashian

Arguably the most visible media persona out there, Kim is everywhere. In magazine articles, media drops social media posts, etc. She wanted to get rid of a few pounds regardless of her curves being the main draw for her fans. Losing a few pounds has not decreased her popularity at all. Ironically, Kim would actually have surgery done to make her bottom bigger, something that most people strive to shrink or tone.

Kim Kardashian

Tyra Banks

As a supermodel, Tyra’s fluctuating weight was noticed more than normal. This unfair level of scrutiny, judgment, and shaming was something that most of us will never understand, and we can understand why she would want to rebel. Her career cannot be easy and she announced that she was determined to get back to her preferred model body size, which she has done. She maintains a strict and almost obsessive dedication to dieting and exercise.

Tyra Banks

Oprah Winfrey

Probably the most filmed woman in history, Oprah is the subject of everyone’s interest, despite being quite closed-mouthed about her personal life. Whether she liked it or not, the chatty celebrity became the focus of much weight-focused criticism and her body size became almost central to the public and media’s understanding and discussion of her. She has taken her own life advice and embarked on improving her fitness levels. The result is a currently healthy weight.

Oprah Winfrey

Seth Rogen

Seth’s trademark size and laugh are well known to all comedy fans. Over the span of a few years, he has managed to lose 30 pounds. A great start. We love that he has spent so many years perfecting his comedic side while also focusing on his physical performance. Rogen has a particularly fond affinity for a certain herb that causes intense hunger after being administered, and we commend him for overcoming these side effects.

Seth Rogen

Jessica Simpson

Women know how hard it is to shed the after baby pregnancy weight gain. It appears that Jessica found it slightly easier, as she is already back to her pre-baby size. Simpson did remain at a particularly curvy weight for some time, however, and we cannot blame her for it, as being a mommy is incredibly demanding to the point where your own personal health can become neglected and forgotten for some time.

Jessica Simpson

Miranda Lambert

A personal trainer can really help in the battle to slim down. Miranda went this route and has dropped 25 pounds since starting her training. We’re pretty sure a healthy eating plan was also followed. If you are serious about losing weight and exercising and do not have much in the way of working out experience or knowledge, then a personal trainer is ideal. You will find help in many places with this mission!

Miranda Lambert

Drew Berrymore

Looking quite different nowadays, Drew apparently increased her protein intake as one of the strategies to attaining her goal weight. As we recently saw, in Santa Clarita Diet, she is looking very well. Drew’s lapse in major acting roles might be one of the main reasons why we did not notice her weight gain, but now that she is back under the spotlight, she has returned to her usual beautiful shape and standards.

Drew Berrymore

LeAnn Rimes

No longer always in the public eye, LeAnn is doing great. Since she took a break from the glitz and glam of celebrity life, she has had a lot more time to dedicate to personal improvement and her health. She does boxing, running, and training and these activities keep her in shape. She is not just the most youthful country artist of our time, but also the most committed to health and fitness.

LeAnn Rimes

Melissa Joan Hart

After a 40-pound weight loss, Melissa credited her success to Nutrisystem. This is a weight-loss diet that provides its subscribers with a convenient and healthy supply of ready-made health food. This system basically does all the hard work for you, such as portion control, meal prep, and timing. Some programs work for some people and not for others, but perhaps we should give this one a try and see how it goes!

Melissa Joan Hart

Sam Smith

Losing weight not only transforms you physically but emotionally too. Amelia Freer is credited with getting Sam down over a stone in weight, in only two weeks. More importantly, her assistance has helped Sam rethink and alter his relationship with food. He states he is now happy and balanced in mind and body. Your relationship with your body is a holistic affair, and your mind and body are far more connected than you think.

Sam Smith

Perez Hilton

So many have commented on how Perez’s appearance has changed for the better. He actually lost 70 pounds. The so-called ‘Queen of all Media’ is looking very svelte these days. As you can see from the pictures below, Perez was given an enormous amount of confidence by his weight loss and exercise, proudly showing off his new six-pack and pecks. Look out for more of his zany and hilarious outfits!

Perez Hilton

Renee Zellweger

This accomplished actress is a real big screen drawcard. We loved her performance in Bridget Jones’s Diary but noticed that after filming, she had picked up some extra baggage. She nipped that in the bud though, by starting on a 4000 calorie a day eating plan. She might have lost her famously curvaceous figure in the process, but as you can seein the pictures below, she gained an incredible amount of confidence and fierceness.

Renee Zellweger

Ricky Gervais

The British actor has us all in stitches with his comedic flair. He and Fallon, his partner supported each other in a mutual weight loss plan and they reduced their joint weight by 40 pounds. With all the laughing and subsequent tummy exercises that Ricky enjoys, you would probably think that this was an easy experience for him. He might have lost the ability to poke fun at his weight, but the smile on his face is priceless.

Ricky Gervais

Jerry Ferrara

When your doctor tells you to lose weight or face life-threatening health issues, you listen. Jerry took the advice seriously and with this health at stake, was spurred on to lose 55 pounds since working on Entourage. With such a terrifying prognosis at hand, Jerry was shaken to his core, but found the courage and pressing inspiration needed to start hitting the gym and eating healthily. The results were completely hunky!

Jerry Ferrara

Abby Lee Miller

Sometimes, working out and eating clean are not the only things our stars do. Abby Lee Miller decided to get a lap-band procedure. After this, she went down from a size 24 to a size 16!

Abby Lee Miller
Occasionally, a well-known personality will undergo a lab band procedure to assist in the reduction of size. This is what Abby Lee did and in conjunction with exercise and clean eating, she went from a dress size 24 to 16.

Abby Lee Miller

Tom Arnold

We all know a guy who comfort eats with his pregnant wife. Tom was one of these supportive husbands and managed to gain a whopping 70 pounds during his wife’s pregnancy. If you are going to do all that extra cooking for your partner in need, you may as well get something out of it! He had to work hard to reverse the damage and as managed to get rid of 100 pounds.

Tom Arnold

Kevin Smith

Kevin unveiled his new slim physique in 2015 after managing to drop 85 pounds. Our first glimpse of the new Kevin really reflected just how much 85 pounds is. To keep his new body in top shape, he is fanatical about clean eating and exercise. Kevin seems to have forgotten to get a whole new wardrobe, however, still sticking to his oversized hockey shirts. We love the hilarious director’s new image!

Kevin Smith

Jill Scott

There are so many types and ways to exercise or gym and we all have our favorite. Jill prefers boxing and biking and these activities resulted in a 70-pound loss for her. This is quite remarkable. If you are looking for a physical exercise that is guaranteed to shred the pounds and push you to your limits, then martial arts like boxing or kickboxing are a fantastic option. You will also learn how to defend yourself!

Jill Scott

Valerie Bertinelli

The older we get, the harder it seems to shift those stubborn pounds. This process becomes increasingly more difficult for women, and so whenever an older woman loses weight it is a spectacular achievement. She may not look it, at all, but Valerie is sixty years old! Valarie managed to shed 40 pounds at age 55. Impressive indeed. She even has her own incredibly successful cooking show, Valarie’s Home Cooking.

Valerie Bertinelli

Rachael Ray

Rachael has a massive presence on Tv and the Food Network, also hosting her own lifestyle talk show, Rachael Ray. She is also a celebrity cook, author, and businesswoman. She hit a speedbump in her life when she was told she had throat cancer in 2009. This wake-up call prompted her to improve her health, She went on the delicious Mediterranean diet and exercised while also upping her water consumption.

Rachael Ray

Kevin Federline

By virtue of being the ex-husband of Britney Spears, Kevin is in the media spotlight often. When he was a dancer, he maintained healthy eating habits and exercised daily. When he changed careers, his new lifestyle caused him to gain quite a bit. He found it hard to keep up with his energetic kids and decided to make some changes. He found a fun way to do this when he joined VH1’s Celebrity Fit Club 7: BootCamp, dropping his excess weight in the process.

Kevin Federline

Chaka Khan

The “Queen of Funk” has dominated the American soul and R&B scenes for decades. Better known for her funky stage name Chaka Khan, Yvette Marie Stevens was well into her sixties when she decided that her iconically jolly and larger than life persona was not working for her any longer.It seems that a vegan-liquid diet is responsible for Chaka reducing her weight over a four-month period. Her loss is impressive.

Chaka Khan

Angie Stone

Here we have another member of the R&B Hall of Fame with Angie Stone. Diabetes type 2 is a modern lifestyle disease that is becoming more prevalent daily. Angie is one of the people that have this disease and the diagnosis prompted her to get healthy and lose body mass, to control her diabetes. She is on a stringent diet. We hope that she stays on this healthy path for years to come!

Angie Stone

Dr. Dre

The iconic rapper and producer, Dr. Dre, real name Andre Romelle Young, might have been one of the most fearsome and respected gangster rappers ever, but his street cred included a mighty propensity for the best fast food joints in America. While he might be in his fifties, Dr. Dre suddenly decided several years ago that he was going to work incredibly hard at the gym (and kitchen) to gain a phenomenal body. And he looks amazing! He certainly looks amazing after losing those 50 pounds.

Dr Dre

Kevin Liles

Kevin Liles is an incredibly successful record executive and is also the CEO of 300 Entertainment. He was called the “R&B/Hip-Hop Executive of the Year.” But one of his most profound achievements outside of the music industry has to be his dedication to diet and exercise. The frontman for Def Jam embarked on a weight loss journey in 2007 after concluding he needed the health benefits this would attain. He reached his goal and has kept the pounds off.

Kevin Liles

Ricki Lake

Ricki’s weight was what endeared her to so many at the beginning of her career. She was seen as a more approachable and kinder alternative to her more intense counterparts in the talk show host world. Still, she realized that maintaining that amount of weight was unhealthy. Since then, she has gone from a size 24 to a 6! Incredible. Ricki has not lost her charm or sweetness in the process.

Ricki Lake

Paul Wall

Paul Michael Slayton, known to the public as Paul Wall, is one of America’s most recognized rappers in today’s Hip-Hop scenes. He was even nominated for a Grammy Award back in 2007. One day, he decided to transform himself from a tubby and badly dressed gangster-wannabe to a svelte and debonair gentleman. Seeing as Paul has lost so much weight, we wish he would rethink his baggy jeans. Showing a bit more of those new legs would only add to his now very attractive appearance.

Paul Wall

Jason Sudeikis

Husband of Olivia Wilde, Jason states that if were not for their energetic bedroom romps, his weight loss would not have been so successful. He fully credits Olivia for reaching his goal weight. Seeing as he disclosed this in a 2013 Elle magazine interview, we can see just how proud he is of his achievement. We hope that your stamina and performance have been boosted by your dedication to romance, Jason!

Jason Sudeikis

Jason Segel

Jason’s padded ‘dad bod’ made him an adorable and sweet-looking clown-like favorite on the iconic How I Met Your Mother sitcom. After completing his role in How I Met Your Mother, Jason joined the crew of The Five-Year Engagement, but there was a catch. The role was dependent on him becoming dedicated to slimming down. He knuckled down and started eating correctly and hitting the gym and got rid of 35 pounds.

Jason Segel

Kyle Massey

You will remember Kyle Massey as being the adorable troublemaker in That’s So Raven, playing the titular character’s bratty little brother. He then went on to have his own spinoff show, called Corey in the House, where he and his father moved into the White House. In his adulthood, he became a participant in Dancing with the Stars, Kyle left the show lighter by 18 pounds. All that exercise really paid off.

Kyle Massey

Hilary Duff

Every kid that grew up in the late 90s and early 2000s will never forget Hillary Duff as Lizzie McGuire, the iconic Nickelodeon coming-of-age sitcom with its own film. Hilary is an active single mother as well as the star of Younger and several other teen romcoms. Although this takes up most of her time, she makes sure she prioritizes her health and it shows. This is a yummy mommy if we ever saw one!

Hilary Duff

Rob Kardashian

While his older sisters might have stolen most of the Kardashian spotlight and fame, Rob Kardashian is a successful entrepreneur and television personality in his own right. Could appearing in Dancing with the Stars be the new undisclosed weight loss gimmick? It kept Rob slim and trim which was a bonus as he has been concentrating on bettering his health since his daughter’s birth. It is amazing how our children make or break us!

Rob Kardashian

Russell Crowe

You might have remembered seeing Russell Crowe during the early 2010s as looking alarmingly tubby. This was a great shame for the epic film star, having played some of the most physically rigorous and demanding roles such as the one in Gladiator. Increasing his activity has been the key to Russell’s slimming down. He hikes and goes on bike rides and has reduced his girth by 52 pounds. This is no ordinary dad bod!

Lisa Lampanelli

Known as “The Queen of Mean,” Lisa Lampanelli is one of the most hilarious and unforgiving comediennes ever to take to the stage. Granted, some of her older material would never fly in today’s sensible and politically correct media. Lisa underwent gastric sleeve surgery and lost 107 pounds after the procedure. She is a fiery and shameless insult comic on Celebrity Apprentice and still working solidly to keep the mass off.

Rick Ross

In 2011, after having two consecutive fits in 24 hours, Rick realized he had to make some changes to ensure his health did not deteriorate. We have all gained some weight in the past, having felt like our health, fitness, and happiness had been diminished somewhat. But suffering from lethal attacks like Ross did was enough to scare anyone off junk food for good. He altered his dietary habits and as a bonus, lost 75 pounds.

Holly Madison

The Playboy starlet and former partner to the late Hugh Heffner, Holly Madison, has to be one of the most stunning Playmates ever to grace the pages of the adult magazine and the halls of its legendary mansion. Watching her weight was not a priority to Holly until after she had her first child. She then realized the importance of healthy eating and weight maintenance. Today, she chooses healthy food options.

Zach Galifianakis

It is sad that even in today’s world, fatness is associated with hilarity and so many stars still keep the pounds piled up to better their comedic craft. Who could forget The Hangover or Between Two Ferns? Zack’s trademark ‘big funny guy’ character is what made us love him, but that excess poundage had to be reigned in for his own good. He started by abstaining from alcohol and reduced his bulk by 50 pounds.

Jorge Garcia

Well known ‘Lost’ actor, Jorge has reinvented his lifestyle and as a Vegan, has managed to lose all the extra weight he was carrying. While he still has a long way to go, at least Garcia has eliminated so many of the fatty and sugary indulgences that he enjoyed to excess in many foods containing animal products. We wish him well on his journey and hope that he keeps to this diet as it is obviously working for him.

Gabourey Sidibe

Her breakout role in Precious showcased her acting talent, but Gabourey did not enjoy the media attention showered upon her, due to her insecurity about her weight. She is determined to work on her image and to date has lost 50 pounds and maintains her commitment to reaching her goal weight. Sidibe is an incredibly gifted and powerful actress, and as her body continues to transform, so will her roles in Hollywood.

Kirsten Vangsness

Kirsten has shed a serious amount of weight. In fact, you may not even recognize her as the favorite character, Penelope Garcia in Criminal Minds. She never strayed from the eating plan her personal trainer drew up for her and it shows. When you cooperate with an incredibly intelligent and caring personal trainer, who wishes nothing more than to see you shine and be happy, you are destined for greatness!

Mama June

Mama June has made extreme changes to her lifestyle, shedding 150 pounds, even outshining her daughter, Honey Boo Boo’s rising star. Much healthier now, she is unrecognizable as the Mama June we first met. We love it when icons like Mama June, who are recognized for their rather bizarre and gluttonous behavior, work their way through a phenomenal metamorphosis. June is taking care of herself finally and it certainly shows!
