Comments (0)Sara Rue’s life now has meaning. For the first time ever, she can now wear a bikini.
The “Shedding For The Wedding” star recently told People that a year-and-a-half after she began the Jenny Craig program, she can now two-piece it. She has lost more than 50 pounds and gone down four dress sizes.
“It’s a little strange,” says Sara, 32. “But after I tried [a bikini] on, I thought, `I look good!’”
Since July of 2010, the “Popular” actress – who was born Sara Schlackman in New York City—has been on a Jenny Craig maintenance plan of cardio workouts four days a week and a 1,700-calorie-a-day diet.
“It’s a struggle,” she says. “There are days where I’ll say, ‘I feel off the rails.’ But I don’t give myself excuses. … I try not to eat animal protein after 7:30 p.m.
And when I make pasta, I layer the bottom of the bowl with fresh spinach. That way you’re having the pasta, but with half the carbs.”
At her nuptials next month to fiancé Kevin Price, Sara says she won’t skip wedding cake. “We’re having three kinds, including red velvet and pumpkin caramel,” she says. “I’ll be having one of each! Very small slivers of every kind is the way to go.”
