Jennie Garth Lost 30 Pounds and Here’s How She Did It 

1. Weight Training

Garth lost 30 pounds after turning 41 and realizing she was unhappy with her health and physique. The actress combined intense workouts with a clean diet to lose the weight and keep it off. "I've been working out really hard," Garth told Health. "I've been weight training with a trainer three days a week… I really never sit down. I mean, that's basically the secret. It's just not sitting around."

2. Clean Diet

Garth enjoys a nutritious plant-based diet. “[For breakfast] I eat oats in almond milk, and add almond slivers, blueberries, strawberries, chia seeds on top,” she tells The Beet. “But I eat the oats right after I pour the oat milk on them, even before they are softened. I love the crunch of it. [For lunch] a salad. On a day when I am eating well, everything I can find goes into my salad: Avocado, tomatoes, nuts, and for sweetness, I like to add green apple into the mix. We love Mexican food in our house, and though it's not the healthiest, you can make a taco with lots of vegetables. I love the vegan cheese, and I'll make a tortilla with vegan cheese, like Daiya, which is my current favorite!

3. She Plays Golf

Garth is an enthusiastic and accomplished golfer. “For exercise, I do a lot of stretching. I also love to get outside any chance I get, and right now I am into golf!” she tells The Beet. “It's a great activity both mentally and physically because you can walk the course. It keeps me sharp too since you really have to focus. But mostly I love it because it's a way to spend time in nature and see beautiful vistas and trees. And there is a lot of walking involved!”

4. Healthy Habits

Garth’s weight loss regimen is rooted in common sense and good habits. "I'm just taking care of myself. Eating less, exercising more, drinking a lot of coconut water," she told PEOPLE. "I eat a lot of Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt in the morning, salads and proteins the rest of the day and maybe a cupcake if I've been a good girl."

5. Arthritis Gel

Arthritis runs in Garth’s family, which is why she was happy to partner with Voltaren Arthritis Pain Gel. “I always knew that arthritis ran in my family, so it was something that was kind of on my radar,” she tells New Beauty. “I started to feel some stiffness in my hips and knees and I wanted to ignore the signs; I associated it with getting older and I wasn’t interested in that. The reality is, I am getting older, I am aging and things are starting to happen.”

Jazz Jennings is showing off her slimmed down body – in a bathing suit. In a new social media post the reality star flaunts her incredible figure in a swimsuit while revealing that she has lost 70 pounds. “70 pounds down! Feeling happier and healthier than I’ve been in years. I still have a ways to go, but I’m so proud to finally be taking the necessary steps toward bettering my mind, body and spirit 💜💜💜,” she captioned the Instagram post. “Looking good girl,” commented one of her followers. “So incredibly proud of you. I know how hard it is to be confident and committed to weight loss. You are an inspiration to so many for many reasons. You go girl !!!!” added another. Here is everything you need to know about her weight loss journey.

1. She Gained 100 Pounds Due to Binge Eating

“As many of you have noticed, over the past few years, I have gained a substantial amount of weight,” Jazz wrote on Instagram in June 2021, discussing her food addiction. “My binging, along with an increased appetite I experience from some of the meds I’m on, has caused me to gain almost 100 pounds in a little less than 2 years.”

2. She Decided to “Turn Over a New Leaf”

“I’m ready to change my ways; I’ve been saying I’m ready to turn over a new leaf, but I’m running out of trees now. I’m ready to take the initiative and create positive changes when it comes to my health and body. I have a fabulous team supporting me, both professionals and family/friends, but at the end of the day, I have to be the one committed toward bettering myself. I know I have the power in me to lose the weight,” she continued in the same post.

3. Her Weight Gain Was Related to Mental Health Struggles

On her TLC docuseries, I Am Jazz, she revealed that her eating issues started as a result of mental health struggles in 2019. That year she deferred her admission to Harvard University. “Having all this extra weight, I can’t do so many things with my body that I used to be able to do,” she said on a November 2021 episode of her show. “I do experience fat-shaming from my family. It makes me feel really humiliated.”

4. She Opted to Lose Weight “For Health Reasons”

“I honestly feel beautiful [at] every shape and size. I love my body the way it is. But I will say that I am trying to lose weight for health reasons,” Jazz said on a December 2021 episode of her show. “I have to feel good, too, and I don’t feel good with some of the foods that I have been eating. I really am working on this weight loss so I can be healthier and more me.”

5. She Started Running

One of the things Jazz does to help with her weight loss is exercise. Here she is going for a run with her dad. “‘There she is….the 2024 JAZZZZ’ - @gregory_scott_4 My dad is the BEST. So supportive and empathetic. Thanks for always being there for me. Now I just have to be consistent in order to reach my health goals!🩷🩷🩷 Baby steps,” she captioned a recent post.

6. What Is Binge Eating Disorder?

According to the National Eating Disorders Association, binge eating is a disorder which involves recurrent episodes of binge eating and eating larger amounts of food in a shorter period of time than most people would in the same situation. “Other associated behaviors include eating very rapidly, eating past the point of being full, eating when not hungry, and eating alone,” they say.

1. She Gained Weight Due to IVF

Kashmera explained to The Times of India that she gained weight when undergoing IVF. “I stopped looking after myself,” she admitted. She started eating “anything and at odd times” and failing to exercise. “The entire focus got shifted,” she continued. She ignored herself until January 2020, when she stepped on the scale and realized she had put on over 26 pounds.

2. She Worked with a Nutritionist

Kashmera revealed that her IVF doctor put her in touch with a nutritionist in early January 2020. “So, I started my diet and workout regime,” she continued. During the lockdown she fell into a depression and started losing even more weight. She even started to eat less in fear that she would run out of food due to supply chain issues.

3. Cooking Helped Her Lose Weight

Kashmera found a new hobby during the pandemic. “I started cooking during the lockdown which I have never done. I started cooking healthy food and Krushna started losing weight because of me,” she said about her husband. “I began eating healthy food, smaller portions and suddenly in October I checked my weight.” She discovered she had lost 24 pounds. “I didn't even realise that I had lost so much weight because I did not step out of the house and wore clothes which I wear at home like shorts, t-shirts. We all were shocked.” She went on to lose over four more pounds.

4. It’s All About Discipline

Kashmera believes her weight loss all boiled down to setting goals and actively achieving them. “I realised that discipline is everything,” she explained.

5. The Buddy System Also Helped Her

Kashmera maintains that her weight loss journey motivated her husband as well. “I told him very clearly to eat whatever you want to eat at night, but during the day you will eat what I give you,” she said. As a result, he lost over 15 pounds.

Adele’s new album, 30, is out today, getting rave reviews. Fans are also impressed with her weight loss. She lost 100 pounds during the pandemic lockdown, and has talked about how she did it—and, in a new interview, how she still has insecurities despite the major achievement. Read on to see 5 things Adele has to say about her outlook—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Still Has Things About Her Body She Does Not Like

“I don’t know if I feel different. I still have things about my body that I don’t like,” she said in an interview with The Face magazine published Thursday. “They’re not insecurities. But on the cover of Vogue, they were all trying to put me in sleeveless dresses. I was like: ​’I ain’t showing my arms! Are you mad?‘ I’ve never liked my arms, ever, and I still don’t like my arms. It goes back to that thing of being thin and being happy. “Yeah, my arms are half the size, don’t mean I f–king like them! F–king hate my feet still.”

2. She Can’t Wear Stuff That Used to Fit

“There’s so much jewelry I can’t wear [now] because of my hands. No one tells you that, when someone loses weight,” she explained. “Not that I was trying to lose weight. But my rings don’t fit me anymore. Things that were gifts for my 21st birthday, I can’t f–king wear,” she told the Face.

3. She Worked Out Three Times a Day

“It was because of my anxiety. Working out, I would just feel better. It was never about losing weight, it was always about becoming strong and giving myself as much time every day without my phone. I got quite addicted to it. I work out two or three times a day,” she told British Vogue. She added: “So I do my weights in the morning, then I normally hike or I box in the afternoon, and then I go and do my cardio at night. I was basically unemployed when I was doing it. And I do it with trainers.”

4. She Can Joke About Her Weight Loss

She joked about her weight loss in her opening monologue on Saturday Night Live. "I know I look really, really different since you last saw me," Adele said. "But actually, because of all the Covid restrictions…I had to travel light and I could only bring half of me, and this is the half I chose."

5. This is What She Wants to Say with 30

With her new album 30: “I just wanted to acknowledge all of the many layers of myself, which I think is definitely something that comes with age. Obviously, after a really big life moment, like my divorce, it’s good to experiment a little bit more with sort of eclectic inspirations. I wanted to, more than anything, just comfort myself. It wasn’t really about what I wanted to say for people. It was more like: ​’What do I need to hear for myself, lyrically?’ It was just my friend, [the process of] making this album. I had to spend a lot of time on my own in order to figure a lot of things out,” she told the Face.

Valerie Bertinelli is revealing the secret to winning her weight gain battle. The 61-year-old star and Food Network host has famously struggled with her weight for most of her life, losing weight and then gaining it back again. But two years ago, the self-proclaimed “most famous dieter in America,” came to realize her self-worth and made a single sacrifice that completely changed her life and ended her weight war. Read on to find out Valerie Bertinelli’s secret to winning her weight gain wars and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Had Been Trying to Lose the Same 10 Pounds for Forty Years

In a new interview with People and an excerpt from her upcoming memoir, Enough Already, Bertinelli reveals that she started 2020 off on a mission: to lose 10 lbs., "the same 10 lbs. I had been trying to lose for the past forty years," she said. She walked over her scale and had a revelation: "No. I can't be doing this again." It was then she realized tying her self-worth to numbers on the scale was making her fail.

2. She Decided to Live in the Moment Instead of According to the Scale

"The goal is to live in the moment, and not according to the scale," she continued. In October 2020 she lost her ex-husband Eddie Van Halen, and realized losing weight wouldn’t help with grief either. "There is no magic number that will make me feel good about myself," she said.

3. She Is Prioritizing Self-Love

Bertinelli explains in her book that she is prioritizing self-love. "I'm done judging myself," she writes. "I want to be kinder and more accepting of myself."

4. She Has a History of Disordered Eating

Valerie explains that when she became a spokesperson for Jenny Craig at the age of 47, it wasn’t for the right reasons. "I wasn't trying to get healthy or deal with the reasons I had gained weight over the years. I had split from Ed and I refused to take money from him. As a single working mom I needed to make money. Jenny Craig was a good job,” she writes. She lost a whopping 50 pounds in two years, and in 2009, posed in a bikini for the cover of People. "I started to gain weight as soon as the photo shoot ended,” she continues. "I was starving myself and doing twice a day workouts. Some people can look like that without doing that but not me. And there is shame for being part of the problem to make other people think they could do it. I bought into it hook, line and sinker, but I didn't take care of my head and my heart and I think it really starts with that.”

5. We Need to “Dismantle” Diet Culture

"I have a lot of decades of thinking I have to look a certain way for people to accept me and to like me,” she writes. "We're all part of this diet culture that isn't actually helping us, our mental or emotional health. I'm trying to dismantle all of the things I learned that are ingrained in me. And I've learned there are many people that feel the same exact way that I do. Some of us were taught the wrong things."

6. She Gave Up the Scale

Ultimately, her secret to winning her weight gain wars was simple. "I gave up the damn scale," she says. "I haven't weighed myself since I finished writing the book and all I know is every time I put on my jeans, they fit. I don't have to lay back and put them on! Every time I want to get on the scale, I think, 'Why would you do that Valerie?' Because it's not about the number. There's not going to be before and after photos. Whatever happens happens," she continued. "This is what I am. Right now. Today."
