Melissa McCarthy has been quite open about her weight loss journey and well-being. The 55-year-old actress shared that over the years she has learnt to stop worrying about her weight. In 2023, talking to PEOPLE, Melissa shared that there was a time when she was very worried about her weight, so much so that she was on a strict all-liquid diet.
Melissa mentioned that she would rather never do it again, as back then she felt crazy and used to starve. The actress added that it was during her 30s that she stopped thinking about people's opinions on her and rather started being okay with the way she is. In an interview with CBS Mornings, Melissa shared that she just stopped worrying about people and stopped being worried. Melissa could be quoted as saying:
"I finally said [to myself], 'Oh, for God's sake, stop worrying about it', and it may be the best thing I've ever done.' I truly stopped worrying about [my weight]. I stopped over-analyzing, over-thinking, over-doing anything. I just stopped constantly being worried about it, and I think there's something to kinda loosening up and not being so nervous and rigid about it that, bizarrely, has worked."
