Marie Osmond

Marie Osmond is a popular talk show host as well as country music artist back in the 1970s and 1980s. Being the host of The View certainly didn’t stop Marie from developing bad habits that caused her to struggle with weight. The renowned TV personality hit her lowest point when her weight went up to 165 pounds, and she heard harsh comments from her critics. The mean words got through to her and certainly left a mark as she tried unhealthy weight loss methods, from diet pills to starving herself.

Marie persevered on her weight loss journey not because of her critics but because of her family. She gives full credit to her kids and grandkids, saying that they want her to be around for a long time. Interestingly, Marie found an alternative that doesn’t require any diet pill or any unreasonable fasting. The young Osmond has given ballroom dancing a try, and to her luck, she’s lost 45 pounds in just four months. Now, she looks healthier than ever at age 61!
