Marissa Jaret Winokur – 60 Pounds

Ah, yes, “Hairspray!” What a film! Taking the lead role in the musical was actress Marissa Winokur. The actress, who won a Tony Award for the Broadway adaptation of the colorful and very fun musical extravaganza, won hearts!

Always on the heavier side, Marissa was almost admitted with a medical emergency due to her weight. Her cholesterol shot up to an alarmingly high level, and her doctor advised her seriously to lose weight. She went on a restrictive 1,200-calorie diet and exercised her heart out. But hey, the final result was worth it: Winokur lost over 60 pounds!
