DREW BARRYMORE

Actress, model, producer, and author, Drew Barrymore, is somewhat ubiquitous nowadays because of her highly-rated Netflix series, Santa Clarita Diet. She also shared that her latest 20-lbs weight loss was due to diet and exercise. The Charlie’s Angels star shared on her Instagram that her weight had been fluctuating throughout the years, going down and going up like a rollercoaster ride. Barrymore says that a lot of it also had to do with the fact that she’s given birth twice now. But now, in her 40’s, she says that she’s finally found the right balance, and is now, to her credit, where she wants to be—where, she claims, she’s “supposed to be.”

ETHAN SUPLEE

Ethan Suplee has always played the role of an overweight person. Indeed, he’s known for playing Seth Ryan in American History X and Louie Lastik in Remembering the Titans, two characters who were portrayed to be overweight onscreen. But now, people will be surprised at how much weight Suplee has been able to lose. Indeed, the man looks as chiseled as a greek god nowadays—thanks to the unbelievable dedication he has to his diet and strength training. The man is almost unrecognizable! And the before-and-after-pics he shared of himself on his Instagram have served as an inspiration to others that a small investment in yourself can go a long way.

HONEY BOO BOO

Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson was catapulted to stardom after starring in the hit reality series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. She was a child beauty pageant contestant who underwent the seemingly constant pressures of pageant life. Fans of the show know that Alana had also been struggling with her weight. Apparently, however, the young reality star has made strides in the weight department by eliminating grease from her diet. This meant no more fried foods and soda for the ex-pageant contestant. We’re not sure just how much weight the young star has been able to lose, but her recent pictures do show that she’s lost quite a few. Also, her Mama June reportedly lost 300 lbs by following a strict diet, so we’re sure that Honey Boo Boo will be seeing results in the investment she’s made in her own health in no time.

JASON ALEXANDER

Comedian, actor and singer, Jason Alexander, who is more popularly known for playing George Costanza, the chubby character in the hit television series Seinfeld, once shared during an interview that after carrying an extra 30 pounds of weight for more than 20 years, he was ready to make a change. Apparently, it took the man only three months to lose a significant amount of weight—14 lbs of weight, to be exact. He was, to his credit, able to do it with the help of Jenny Craig, the founder of, well, Jenny Craig, a weight management and nutrition company. Alexander reportedly cut down his diet from an astonishing 4,000-plus calories a day to a more manageable 1,500.

Jennifer Hudson, otherwise known as J.Hud, is both an actress and a singer who received world wide acclaim after becoming a finalist in Season 3 of American Idol. She transitioned to acting after her stint in American Idol, and took on the role of Effie White in the film Dreamgirls. In any case, she was always heavy set back then, but she was able to lose a ton of weight—and by a ton, we mean an amazing 80 pounds of weight—after she partnered with Weight Watchers and put in the work. All the investment Hudson put in herself paid off, and she turned into a sexy ebony songstress today because of it.

JOHN GOODMAN

John Goodman pretty much lived a life that art dictated when he was cast in the role of Dan Conner—his most memorable role if you ask us—in the hit television series Roseanne. Dan was fat and was struggling with his weight, and so was John, the man behind the character. A lot of the episodes in Roseanne even featured Dan trying and failing to lose weight. Interestingly, it was the same for Goodman, who was happy to discuss his weight struggles with the public. But when Goodman reached 400 pounds, he decided enough was enough. He made an investment in a personal trainer, who incorporated exercise and a strict diet into his life, and he eventually lost 100 pounds.

JONAH HILL

Jonah Hill, who’s ranked in Forbes as one of the highest-paid actors, is one guy who’s always had an issue with his weight. Most of the characters he played when his career was starting out were overweight. Indeed, the actor opened up about his weight struggles during an interview with Ellen Degeneres, and he shared that he felt lonely despite all the success because of his weight. But now, however, he’s got a revamped body. Thanks to a nutritionist and the help of his friend Channing Tatum, who were able to push him towards changing his lifestyle. Apparently, Hill was able to lose 40 lbs, and he credits hard work and a strict diet for the results.

JONATHAN ANTOINE

Jonathan Antoine, an English tenor who became popular after appearing in Britain’s Got Talent in 2012, shared that he was often bullied as a kid because of his weight. In fact, the bullying was so bad that he became somewhat of a recluse because of it. Even as an adult, Antoine suffered from severe depression, and even credits the show Britain’s Got Talent for putting him on the right track. Everything changed, he said, when he went on the show and was introduced to fame. With the help of a psychiatrist and Weight Watchers, Antoine was able to lose 56 lbs and is now on the right track towards his ideal body weight.

Indeed, the new reality show she’s involved with, From Not to Hot, is all about her life after having lost all the weight. She also reportedly over-slept just to avoid having to eat breakfast and the extra calories that come with it.

KELLY BROOK

English model and television personality Kelly Brook, who was ranked by FHM magazine as one of the sexiest women in the world in 2005, has reportedly gone from a size 16 to a size 10 in just a year by following a SlimFast slimming program. Indeed, the diet plan looks to be a great one, since it allows people to eat six times a day! Kelly shared that she coupled the diet plan with a moderate exercise regimen that wasn’t too demanding on the body, but insists that all credit must go to SlimFast’s diet program for seemingly doing the impossible.
