How Jenny McCarthy Lost 60 Pounds


She's been a playboy playmate, a sitcom TV star, and she’s dating one of Hollywood’s hottest stars, Jim Carrey. But now Jenny McCarthy has a new title: America’s New Diet Queen.

“Extra” hit the field with Jenny in New York, where she shared her story of ballooning up to 211 pounds and revealed that she lost 60 pounds with Weight Watchers.

“After I delivered my baby, I was very heavy,” she said. “I did six months in the program, and I got to my goal weight.”

Jenny is marking her successful fight with fat by becoming the face for Weight Watchers Online for Men, and she’s taking baseball great Ron Darling up to bat, coaching the all-star pitcher on what the diet can do for him.

“It really taught me to continue a healthy lifestyle because before I really would shove food in my mouth then go, ‘Oh, it's gone,’ and it really made me evaluate what I’m eating and how much,” she admitted.

In fact, Jenny told us the real victory came on her son's first birthday.

“I looked at the pair of jeans that I was wearing before I gave birth and slipped them on and buttoned them for the first time,” she revealed.

I loved Jenny Mc Carthy on MTV’s Singled Out and the fact that she AND I have lost over 60lbs each with Weight Watchers, shows how great it is! I’m very proud of her and support Weight Watchers 110%

Donni-Jay… Anna was the Trim Spa spokes model, not Jenny. So you don’t have to worry about any patchs…

I can’t believe some one posted a comment about losers posting comments.:)I’m pretty sure she would have to read the comments to have an opinion. And she her self would have to be on the computer to post something. She must be angry.

All of you calling each other fat over a Jenny McCarthy spotlight on extra is a little sad. If you don’t like her, why waste your time coming on to trash her and everyone else on a blog? She wrote a few books that many people enjoyed, and it’s too bad you don’t like her. You sound like you need to prove something to yourself. She may have done porn, if thats what you say, I haven’t checked it out and don’t care to. Do you even know what she has done for her son, and for autism research everywhere? What have you done lately?

For all you people being so harsh about Jenny I ask this. Are you perfect? Why judge someone at all. Have you never made any mistakes? Give the girl a break and look in the mirror. Regardless if you like her or not, she has done a great job losing the weight. She is thin and fit. How much do you weigh? Are you perfect in every way? Grow up and stop casting stones.

Okay, get a life & get off the computer. There’s a whole big world out there losers! Jenny, porn, Anna, diets, size zero…blah, blah, blah. I typed ‘weight watchers’ to check out their site, clicked on an available link & poof…I ended up here - in crazy, pathetic, bitchland apparently.

Yikes! Seriously, get a life

…or at least pretend to.

Way to go Jenny! If only the rest of you with negative comments had a second in the lime light to be judged by morons like yourself.

Come off it! No-one’s jealous of McCarthy! She’s not attractive, just plain actually, sometimes ugly too, and has an ordinary slim body, and a foul mouth! Just search the internet yourself then, and you will see her name is linked to porn and her videos can still be bought. She also had a website selling postcards, and porn videos, of others too. It’s old news! Since being involved with Carey, she has had to clean her act up.

An opinion is okay, so is turning a blind eye, but comments like the one below, proving they don’t know what they are talking about, is ridiculous. Carry on loving Jenny, if you are into that kind of thing. But, before you make a statement like McCarthy hasn’t done porn, check it out first. SHE HAS! Most people know about this too. She was infamous because of this, and proud of it at the time.

I bet YOU are fat! Lol!

Hollyword, how can you say that? Everyone knows Jenny McCarthy became well known initially through PORN. Just type the name Jenny McCarthy into any search engine, and you will see her name linked to porn all the time. If that is not enough for you, I’m sure someone can give you a link where you can see it for yourself, if you are into that stuff! YES, JM started in porn!

Does she have talent other than taking her clothes off? Did she ever do anything constructive? I see that Jim Carrey is sleeping with her…oh stupid me…that is why she is in the spotlight…The “diet queen” what a joke!

I LOVE JENNY. SHE IS BEAUTIFUL, SMART, AND FUNNY. I’VE READ ALL OF HER BOOKS AND CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF HER. SHE AND JIM CAREY ARE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER. THANK YOU EXTRA FOR THE GREAT STORY ON MY FAVORITE PERSON.

Extra gave Jenny McCarthy the titles of; Playboy Playmate, and sitcom TV star, but why leave out that she was a porn star? It seems that is not as disgusting as it used to be.

I am surprised that someone like Jim Carey in involved with this er, I can’t say lady, so I have to say person.

And is she now going to be the ‘face’ of weight watchers, because our poor Anna Nicole is off the scene, and there is a chance for her to pose about the place. I hope not, for McCarthy is not a patch on Anna, and never will be!
