Sure, age will help you lose that puppy fat from when you were a teen, but Cameron opened up, telling media outlets that she got rid of 22 pounds the old-fashioned way. No special help, no fad diet, no intense regime – just adjusting her lifestyle, incorporating better foods, and exercising more regularly!

Paul Wall – 130 Pounds

Rapper Paul Wall made quite a bit of noise on the scene, particularly when he entered. But just at the beginning of his career, the rapper just about hit 320 pounds. At such an alarming weight, he was urged to lose weight because his heart wasn’t going to be able to take it much longer.

He underwent gastric sleeve surgery. Following the procedure, Wall had to also adopt a strict diet that focused on balance and a lot of fresh fruit and veg, as well as being relatively low in carbs. With a consistent approach, Wall managed to lose a staggering 130 pounds!

But hey, the final result was worth it: Winokur lost over 60 pounds!
