Talk show host Ricki Lake has revealed that she has already lost some weight while preparing to compete on Dancing With The Stars’ 13th season!
Ricki makes her debut on the show tonight and she says that the show is already paying off for her. She said, “I’m hoping to pull a Kirstie Alley. Every part of my body hurts…When I went in for a costume fitting, I’ve lost 8 ½ inches. Three inches in my waist. Three in my hips. Over an inch in my thighs and another inch and a half on my arms. It’s crazy.”
She said that she had gained fifteen pounds since falling in love with her fiance, Christian Evans. Now, she’s focusing on losing that and more. She said, “I have two sizes of Lucky Brand jeans: 8 and 6. Usually I wear the 8 because they are more comfortable but now even the 6 is too big. They used to be tight.”
She added, “Having my costumes taken in is the best feeling in the world. I’m a little self conscious of my arms and my back fat but they’re trimming down really quickly. So I think the longer I’m in the competition, the better I’ll feel about my body.”
The show makes its season premiere tonight. Who are you rooting for? Let us know in the comments below!
