Its no secret that Star Jones lost a lot of weight. And I’m not talking 10-20lbs here..she’s lost A LOT of weight. But how much exactly? The exact figure isn’t known but its estimated to be 150-160lbs (68kg-72.7kg)! Amazing! At first she wouldn’t admit that the weight loss was a result of surgery. It has now been revealed that Star underwent gastric bypass surgery to help with her weight loss. Although she did go under the knife, she still eats very healthy food and exercises. I’m sure the majorty of the weight Star Jones has lost was a result of the surgery, but I’d say theres also a fair bit of the weight loss was a result of diet and exercise (I have no idea how much exactly).

She decided to lose weight because she knew she was going to be leaving her job of 9 years. Here’s what she said…"When I was leaving The View, I knew that I was going to make a career transition, so why not make a full transition? So I said, “Go for it!"

What is Star Jones’ Diet?

I have three meals a day. I never miss breakfast. I’ll have a couple of power snacks in the middle of the day, like cheese or some almonds, because my blood sugar level will go down — then you find yourself gorging.I have a protein-heavy breakfast: an egg and a piece of some meat, like two strips of bacon or sausage. I often have fish — my favorite is sea bass with olive oil and herbs — for lunch with spinach.Lunch is almost always where I have my carbs like pasta or rice. Dinner is almost always veggies and protein, like chicken, fish or beef.

Her biggest weight loss tip is to half what ever is on her plate, whether it be at a restaurant, friends house or just at home. "Whatever is put on my plate, I half it before I start eating because if it’s not on your plate, you won’t eat it!"

She does cheat every now and then, but not too often. And she doens’t go overboard! "Once every two or three weeks I have some fast food. But instead of a Double Whopper with cheese, I’ll get a Whopper Junior" She also exercises regularly..and she isn’t afraid to tell us what she does! "I try to exercise every day. And now, for the first time, I’m playing sports, instead of watching them. I take swimming and tennis lessons at least three times a week. But the biggest thing is I walk every single day, for a minimum of half an hour!"
