Clarissa Explains Her Weight Loss
Filed under: Z List > Jaime Pressly
90's-teen-TV staple Melissa Joan Hart is lookin' damn good on the cover of this week's People!
The Clarissa Explains It All and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch star attributes her major post-birth weight loss to the "enormous pressures" put on starlets in Hollywood to be thin.
After unflattering pics of Melissa hit the web, she finally had the motivation she needed to shed those extra pounds left from the birth of her second child, Braydon.
"I realized I didn't have to be heavy just because I have kids," Hart shared with the mag. She turned to pal Jaime Pressly for motivation and managed to drop astonishing 42 lbs in 14 months with a healthy diet and regimented exercise.
Bravo, girl!

first!
She looks great! I still watch reruns of Sabrina that show was so good back in the day
this is BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!! 155 pounds is not fat! it's normal! it's healthy!!!!!!!!! 113 pounds she'd be a twig. she actually looks more like 130 pounds than 113 in the purple bikini! ha!
Wow, so inspiring!
I LOVE MY MONKEY! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MONKEY FOR PRESIDENT!
I used to LOVE sabrina, I passed my science exam because of her! mitosis is the process of cell divison….BOOM!
The edges of her stomach and legs look jagged…Photoshop?
Good for her, but 42 lbs in 14 months are not exactly astonishing, is it?
putting one's unit in another man's a-hole will neve be socially acceptable…..oops! sorry, jumped the gun. I thought this would be another one of those gay posts from Perez.
She has a wonky eye, just like Paris "I'm a Hack" Hilton.
that bitch is NOT 113
ummmm her face looks copy paster
that magazine needs to change its name. 2 of every 3 covers is about weight loss (or, with Ms. Alley, weight gain). Bertinelli, Kathy Ireland, biggest loser, regular people, blah blah, post-pregnancy bodies, blah blah. thank god Mike Tyson's daughter died so they will have new cover material.
that's not an attractive body. and why is 42 pounds "astonishing"? Bravo? Bravo would be someone who didn't need to lose 42 pounds after pregnancy.
She's been heavily retouched on her legs and stomach.
she looks like casper on the top pic. lol* but she looks good!! i used to love sabrina the teenage witch "LOOOOVE IN BLOOOOOM!" HAHA that was my fav. episode!
she does not looks 113 lbs….unless she's really short.
Gee, ANOTHER weight loss after birth cover. PEople really needs some new ideas.
She looks great, but that is NOT 113lbs. That is probably closer to 130. Why do celebrities do this?
Bravo? The " "enormous pressures" put on starlets in Hollywood to be thin " doesn't sound like a very healthy motivator! Maybe if she just wanted to be healthy so stopped eating excessively, and exercised in moderation (enjoyably), that would be something to applaud!
That's a way sexier attitude.
who the fucks CARES about this has been?!?!? - - boring.
Clarissa?
Perez… Have you not noticed this yet?
Her name is MELISSAAAA
she still looks pretty chunky. She needs some serious work on toning up
I suppose 155 isn't fat if you are like 6 feet tall
Unless she is like 4 feet tall, I sincerely doubt she is 113lbs
wow, she looks great
I have a People subscription but it's rather tiresome, each and every single week, to read weight loss stories…fillers, really. And I'm not overweight but does being slender make people nicer? Healthier? I have obese friends who're healthier than me…and nicer:)
Aw I used to love her! She looks the EXACT same as she did on Sabrina…good for her!
Re: jellotime91 – She was the star of the show "Clarissa Explains it all" in the 90's
Is it me or does that photo look like it's been tampered with. Look at the Bikini closely.
she's 5"2 so 155 is big and 113 is about right
when are they going to put a man on the cover who had to lose weight because of "enormous pressures"…oh wait, men have no pressures to be in shape the way women do
Re: youlosemario – ITA with u and it's sad really because most of my girlfriends boyfreinds dont look like male models but we as women dont hold men up to such high standards as long as they have a "great personality"
They're lying about her weight!! I'm 5'3" and I weigh 117 and I'm SKINNY. That other photos is way more than 155 - closer to 200!! I hate magazines - they are late on info and LIE LIE LIE!!!!!!! It's good they wanna inspire people but with photoshop - I don;t beleive much of what I see anymore!! PEOPLE mag is so damn boring!!!! Oh and I'm really tired of jon and kate plus 8
looking good!!!!
she looks great….but hold on a second….this is "baby weight" that she lost. It's not quite the same. A lot of that weight melts off pretty quickly. She probably only had to "work" at losing about 25 of those lbs.
LOL to the nickname…. great ainit….. P.S- the chick needs to like loose more weight she looks nice in the two piece but she still looks fat……put the food down gurl and Vomit it all out
Holy fucking airbushed!
btw 155 ain't fat.
I am 160 and i DO NOT consider myself fat! WTF, she gets a cover cause she was "155" puHLEEEZ! this world is going mad. pisses me off.
She's still fat, notice she's standing at an angle to hide huge hips & butt. Plus she has a double chin. She looked her best on in the early years of "Clarissa".
first off she now looks 130 plus pounds– which is totally healthy.
second, 155 is just fine too for the average size woman– even though she looked heavier.
Re: Katieee – that's because "normal" in america is fat!
How is this person even relevant? What's with the D-listers lately on the cover of these magazines?
thats definitely not 113 lbs. im shorter than her (5'1) and weigh 118 and shes definitely bigger than me
i love this girl. shes sooo normal!! congrats girly on getting your figure back. you didnt need it for me…youre always perfect in my eyes! lol
but i'll tell ya what…your family is mucho proud of you! your boys will be proud to have one of the hottest mommies on the block when they get older. nice job.
She looks great! Good for her
wow wtf they got a 3 year old having a seizure wearing a blindfold riding a bus during an earthquake to do that photoshop job?
NOT 113 POUNDS trust me xD
Re: mixedUpdiva – I love Sabrina I used to watched everyday
i love her! and all yall motherfuckers need to stop hatin on sabrina bc she is up there doin her thing! dont be mad
yeah i dont understand why they say these famous people are like, under 120 pounds when they look the same size as me, or bigger,, like kim k. i am 5'7 and 135 but i look the same body styles as the other ones….
The same exact thing happened to me except I contacted Tori Spelling for help on how to starve myself…kidding…sort of. 113 - same as me (except I got up to 152, yikes!). Don't hate on us skinny bitches, bitches. Just stop eating junk and get your ass in gear, it's not that hard. And yes, 155 is HUGE when you're 5'3" (stop lying to your fat ass).
Re: cyn_e_c – Yes, you ARE FAT! 160 IS FAT FAT FAT! You weigh as much as my 5'7" husband (well, you weigh as much as his dick).
Obviously its photo shopped look at the jagged outline of her body!! But she still looks better than before!
I still watch my daily fix of Sabrina each morning before I go to work. However, this is either a bad magazine scan or it's poorly photoshopped. But she's still cute.
Big secret. She developed an eating disorder because of the pressure to be thin that is promulgated by people such as P-Nasty. THANKS ALOT PEREZ! But you know what? I would have been like "In your FACE with all my fat- take that!" because that's just how Kylyn rolls. She doesn't feel the need to alter herself in a vainglorious attempt to conform to other people's standards by going on a 'jog'. Heck no, she's aware of people starving in the world and is thankful for every ounce of FAT on her body, and knows that overeating is largely a result of trying to fill an emotional void that can't be filled by putting celebrities down. So GOOD LUCK with that diet Perez! You are certainly gonna need a lot of it.
Speaking of which, Perez, are we going to see you topless on July 4th?
She looks great…I've been told I look like her!!!
Re: scarlett321 – Hell yes! That shit helped me pass too!!
Wow, that's the worst photoshopped pic I've ever seen. And WOW–what a whale in that before pic!
shes more then 155 in that pic. im 155 and im not that big. Shit like this makes girls look down on themselves for being that much.. people need to speak up on that..celebraties are making average girls feel like dogg poo.
No one should be judging anyone else's weight, honestly. Everyone has a different body shape. Some people have more muscle mass and less fat than other people so they look different at the same weight.
not quite sure they got melissa's weight right, 113ibs is only 51kgs … deffinetly looks great but doesn't look 51kgs
I Like Her!
This one obviously needs to lose a few more lbs and stay with the salads just a bit longer.
nice to see people losing weight the healthy way! i think she looks great
She look quite like the way she used to. At least I could recognize her. I bought almost every sabrina the teenage witch novel.
Wow I would be sooo screwed if I came to America coz according to most of you I am obese and should be on Jerry Springer or some other trash show…. I'm 5' 7" and weigh 184.8LBS….I do know I need to lose some weight before you start but I'm shocked and appauled at some of the comments. Well done for representing the US in this way…I as a Brit will not be paying a visit any time soon.
your still a fat cow
155 lbs. is not "horrifying"! Good God, what is this world coming to???
she looks great, I felt bad for her being bashed like she was. Not everyone can lose baby weight real fast.
She needs implants if she's going to go around posing in a bikini on a magazine cover. If they airbrushed all the fat off her thighs and stomach couldn't they airbrush some tittie meat onto her chest?
