That said, prepare yourself for a big shock when you get to number 13 and see this star’s amazing change.
1. Chris Pratt
Chris Pratt first captured our dear hearts by playing the role of Andrew Dwyer, a carefree and dumb guy on NBC’s sitcom called Parks and Recreation. That said, it was when he was cast into the Marvel Universe that it became inevitable for him to transform into a totally different character. He played the badass, well-built superhero, Star-Lord, in Guardians of the Galaxy. If you saw him today, you’d find it hard to imagine him as the loveable chubster from his days on the sitcom, considering how super suave he is today.
2. Alec Baldwin
Alec Baldwin has been in the showbiz industry for years. Despite that, he looks almost as young as he did when he first stepped into the spotlight. His physique has certainly changed over time, not just because of being in Hollywood but also because, at some point, he was diagnosed with prediabetes. Due to this diagnosis, he had to lose over 30 pounds. Regardless of what warranted his weight loss, we’re certainly glad to see him in shape after so many years of him being overweight.

A few years ago, she was definitely a bit larger with quite a wide figure. However, she managed to shed over 70 pounds and got to a healthy weight. Having her twins may have taken a toll on her figure but it’s also for the sake of her twins that she decided to slim down.
4. Rebel Wilson
Rebel Wilson is famous for playing the role of Penelope Garcia in the CBS hit drama Criminal Minds. At some point, Rebel decided that the extra weight she had on her was not doing her any good. Her lack of self-confidence owing to her weight is what pushed her to seek professional help. She went through a rigorous weight-loss program that helped her to a great extent. Thanks to this, her transformation has left her almost unrecognizable from her previous self.
5. Oprah Winfrey
Oprah Winfrey has been a household name for years and with her immense success in the media, you wouldn’t think critics would get to her, would you?

She got into a program to help transform herself into the slim queen she is today. A lot of people admire her even more because of the tenacity she showed in the process of achieving her healthy weight.
