Melissa McCarthy Stays Positive After ‘Mike & Molly’ Gets Cancelled; Continues To Be Weight Loss Peg
Despite "Mike & Molly" getting cancelled, Melissa McCarthy remains positive and continues to stand out as a beacon of a successful weight loss journey.
The "Ghostbusters" actress was recently applauded by both fans and critics for her steadfast spirit and dedication after she shed 50 pounds off her weight.
The 45-year-old actress opened the year on a somewhat undesirable note when CBS decided to cancel "Mike & Molly," which was supposed to be on its sixth season. However, news about the termination of Melissa McCarthy's show was eclipsed by her recent weight loss feat.
Many fans believe that her new svelte figure has helped the actress in dealing with the pressure brought about by the end of her show.
Melissa McCarthy's weight loss was perceived by many as a prime example of dedication.
Earlier this year, the "Bridesmaids" star revealed that her secret in achieving her weight loss goal was a low-carb diet.
According to Latinos Health, the actress also minimized her consumption of bread and pasta. Additionally, she also follows a strict Pilates workout as part of her exercise regimen.
The actress claimed that by proving that she can lose weight, she can project herself as a role model to many people especially her daughters.
When asked about how she was able to achieve such weight loss, Melissa McCarthy told Life & Style Magazine, "I truly stopped worrying about it. I think there's something to kinda loosening up and not being so nervous and rigid about it that, bizarrely, has worked."
She also claimed that her role on the movie "Spy" is what kick started her weight loss drive since she was forced to work out in preparation for some of the film's fight scenes.
Despite "Mike & Molly" getting cancelled, Melissa McCarthy is looking at a promising year as her movie "Ghostbusters" is scheduled for a July release.
Her upcoming movie is a reboot of a well-beloved franchise and analysts are predicting that it will be one of the biggest spectacle in this year's movie schedule.
