40 Celebrities Whose Lives Took a Good Turn After Losing Weight

Paula Deen, Positively Paula, 40 Pounds

Paula Deen’s recipes are everything but diet-friendly! The celebrity, who is known for scrumptious and buttery treats, was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in the early 2010s. Initially, she was not ready to concede that the problem existed, and it took three checkups for her to come to terms with the fact.

As an instant reaction to the diagnosis, she threw all the starchy foods in her home – pasta, potatoes, bread, and rice. She stuck to this diet for nearly four months and lost almost 40 pounds in the process. That’s quite a neat way to achieve weight-loss!
