The World’s Biggest Celebrities Who Lost Weight And How They Did It

Ricki Lake – Lost 140 Pounds in 2008

A 19-year-old Ricki Lake was at 200 pounds when she was cast as the happily heavyset Tracy Turnblad in the John Waters 1988 movie, “Hairspray.” But by 2008, the former talk show host told PEOPLE that she couldn’t believe she had been fat for most of her life.

Lake lost 140 pounds by eating the same clean foods daily, training hard six days a week, and not drinking alcohol regularly. The Emmy-winning star shared that she plans her ‘cheat meals’ and works hard to earn them, savoring every mouthful before she sweats it off the following day in the gym.”
