Tina Yothers is ready for her close-up.
The former “Family Ties” star lost 42 pounds, dropped five dress sizes and won the fourth season of VH1’s “Celebrity Fit Club.” But Yothers still didn’t realize how much her body had changed, until she tried to toast her victory at In-N-Out Burger.
Yothers ordered what used to be her usual: a double-double burger, but she couldn’t finish it. “I took, like, three bites–that’s all I could do!” she tells People magazine.
Besides cutting back on portions, Yothers, 33, continues to work out three times a week with her trainer, doing lots of cardio, lunges and squats, and she is now down to a size 8.
“We call each other from our workout sessions and we’re huffing and puffing,” says fellow “Fit Club” fighter Carnie Wilson, who became good friends with the actress during the show.
Yothers , who a year ago hit 210 pounds while pregnant, now celebrates by showing off.
“We’ve gone to the river three times this year,” she says, “and I’ve worn a bikini every time!”
