Ricki Lake, Hairspray – 130 Pounds

Ricki is a far cry from the actress she was in 1988’s comedy film ‘Hairspray.’ Back then, she clocked in at 200 pounds, and she has managed to cut off a considerable amount of that weight.

Accomplishing that was by no means an easy feat. As the star recently revealed, she started off with dropping her dietary problems and embarking on an exercise routine, which eventually paid off. The naysayers were put to rest when she did it so spectacularly, and Ricki looks terrific! She still sticks to her newfound healthy lifestyle, and we can’t be happier for her!
