Wow! When Phylicia Rashad said she was going to take it off, she really meant it. It’s always fun to see a star do what they set out to do, and be inspiring for the rest of us at the same time.
The Cosby star – and Tony award-winning actress – shed 35 pounds on Jenny Craig over the past 18 months. "The most rewarding thing about reaching my goal weight is that I feel so much lighter," she said in a statement. "There’s just an overall sense of well-being. It’s nice to have people say you look nice. Who knew losing weight could be so much fun?"
Weight loss, fun? Hey, you don’t hear that very often. See the 61-year-old Rashad in a new Jenny Craig commercial titled "Uphill Battle," set to debut Aug. 29.
