Celebrity weight loss: 8 Reality TV stars strut it
Our friends at Fitbe.com found eight amazing TV transformations that are incredible, indisputable, and inspiring, to boot.
Jennifer Hudson
Now she's in the spotlight once more - with a noticeably slimmed-down frame-as a spokesperson for Weight Watchers.
While her exact weight is unconfirmed, some reports say she lost up to 80 pounds by tracking what she ate, increasing exercise, and meeting with a diet coach from the program.
Bethenny Frankel
In November she made her debut on "Skating with the Stars," with a "sick" body, as judge Johnny Weir put it.
Yoga is Bethenny's fitness mainstay, says Kristin McGee, who trained Bethenny.
Ali Vincent
Almost three years later, she's still a slim "125 to 130 pounds," finding balance is key to her continued success. "Sometimes that means I give myself a break if I don't get in the workout I wanted to," she says.
Kelly Osbourne
Her transformation started in 2009 on the show "Dancing with the Stars," where she lost 20 pounds. In the following months, she lost another 30, bringing her total weight loss to 50.
Patrick House
His $250,000 weight loss isn't the only prize. The formerly unemployed father of two was offered a job at MindStream Academy in South Carolina, where he'll help overweight teens trim down.
His best advice: "Diet is important, but not everything. You have to stay moving."
Carrie Underwood
Lil' Kim
The rigorous "Dancing" regimen - contestants train about 20 hours a week - didn't hurt either.
Michael Ventrella
Today, he maintains his 285-pound physique with 2 hours of cardio in the morning and 60 to 90 minutes of strength training at night.
