Melissa McCarthy's 45-pound weight loss due to low carb diet: Weighs 220 lbs - National Celebrity Fitness and well-being
Melissa McCarthy's recent 45-pound weight loss was due with low carb, high-protein diet. The 5-foot-2 McCarthy, who previously weighed 265 pounds, now weighs 220 pounds after cutting bread and pasta from her dietary regime.
"Melissa has been in a high-protein, low carb diet," a source told Star. "She's been making small changes and seeing big results."
McCarthy didn't specify which low carb diet she followed, although celebrities with regard to example Kim Kardashian, Megan Fox and Tim McGraw have lost dramatic amounts of weight on the Atkins, ketogenic and Paleo diets. Reduced carbohydrate diets fuel rapid weight loss by forcing the body to burn fat for fuel, said Dr. Eric Westman, co-author of Keto Clarity.
McCarthy's weight loss motivation was a desire to be healthy for her daughters, Vivian and Georgette, with husband Ben Falcone. "Melissa realized she wasn't being as healthy as she could be," said a friend. "She wants to set a good example for her kids and she to help be around to become a grandmother too."
Sources said McCarthy has no desire to be super-skinny, but merely wants to be healthier. "Melissa sees that fans love her big and beautiful, and she's not obsessed with dieting," said the specialized. "She's just looking for a happy mid-sized."
In 2013, McCarthy was fat-shamed by movie reviewer Rex Reed, who called her a "tractor-sized female hippo" with his film review of "Identity Thief." Reed called Melissa a "gimmick comedian offers devoted her short career to obesity and obnoxious."
Reed was slammed for extending his scathing film review to a personal attack on McCarthy's body. The fat-shaming comments were especially hurtful because Melissa has long been open about her weight loss struggles.
In response to Reed's comments, McCarthy said she felt sorry for fat-shaming haters. Melissa, may star in "The Heat 2" opposite Sandra Bullock, said fat comments save time before her much seeing that she's in her 40s, but might have when she was younger.
McCarthy, who already been overweight most of her life, said she had tried many times in weight loss on various diets, and wishes she were naturally skeletal. With her new low carb diet, it is Melissa may soon reach her weight loss goals.
