Melissa McCarthy Weight Loss: 'Ghostbusters' Actress Drinks Two Cups Of This Everyday To Help Shed Over 75 Pounds Off

Melissa McCarthy’s weight loss did not only make the Life Of The Party actress more confident about herself, but it also became an inspiration for people with weight issues. The Ghostbusters star is not one to brag about her new slimmer figure, but reports revealed that she has already dropped over 75 pounds. How did she do it?

It’s no secret that the 47-year-old actress is following a low-carb, high-fat, high-protein diet, which includes the Atkins, Paleo, Pone, and ketogenic diets. Being overweight most of her life, Melissa McCarthy may have finally realized that it is finally time for her to do something about her lifestyle.

While most celebrities would resort to fast but unreliable crash diets to lose weight, the Gilmore Girls actress looked for something that works for her and would make a more long-lasting result. Just like any other diets, Melissa McCarthy’s weight loss is a result of her hard work and her dedication. It didn’t happen overnight.

In fact, Melissa McCarthy had to have a lifestyle overhaul to be successful in her weight loss journey. The Life Of The Party actress had to give up the food that she was used to eating and replaced them with healthier options.

Unlike other diets, Melissa McCarthy’s weight loss happened without skipping her meals. The Ghostbusters star eats 4-5 times a day and still gets the results that she wanted.

Other than her healthy meals, snacks, and smoothies, Melissa McCarthy also drinks two cups of green tea every day. The funny actress drinks her first cup during her morning snack; then she consumes the second cup during lunch.

Although drinking green tea doesn’t automatically make one lose weight, it is believed to aid in weight loss and helps with bloating issues. Also, green tea is loaded with antioxidants and nutrients, which fits perfectly with Melissa McCarthy’s new healthy lifestyle.

Now that the star is shedding a lot of pounds, she hired a trainer to firm her body up. With Melissa McCarthy's hectic schedule, it is understandable that she wouldn't have the extra time to go to the gym daily, which is why having a trainer to work with her at home or anywhere else is a brilliant choice.
