Star Catcher
Valerie Bertinelli: Chunk Change

One day at a time, Valerie Bertinelli has been plugging away (and plugging) on her Jenny Craig diet.

On Wednesday, the, 47-year-old divorced mother of one put on a modest one-piece suit and jumped into the Hawaiian surf with boyfriend Tom Vitale.

It's alleged that Val has dropped 28 pounds on the diet.

Congratulations! Lookin' goodish!

47. For all of you who can call this woman names without a thought - go back and get your G.E.D.

It's not exactly as easy to lose weight when you have these few "minor" issues working against you - 1. you're female, 2. Italian, 3. pre-menopausal, 4. in your friggin' late fourties. 5. have had a kid. 6. probably been fighting depression from a failed marriage. In fact it's damn hard. She's already been tested by docs to make sure she doesnt have any real barriers to weight loss - like thryroid imbalance or insulin resistance, or they wouldn't have let her make the commericals, so all she needs now is time to get where she wants to be. And she'll get there.

Also, it's not fair to take an unflattering picture of someone who's in the middle of their weight loss program/goal, but that's why we like this site - I'm positive the T in TMZ stands for Trainwreck. Maureen Macormick (Marsha Brady) went from twice this size to teeny tiny in a few months on Celeb Fit Club, so let Valerie, who's younger, continue to do her thing, which is pretty damn couragous in front of the entire nation, while she inspires folks along the way.

Now if you excuse me, I have to finish my donut.

48. Wow, some people are NASTY! Sort of unhappy people I think. Like to bash others because they don't like themselves.
Valerie looks awesome and is having a ball in Hawaii. Good for her!

49. in 2002, the average weight for a woman was 164 lbs. so yes, she is totally normal.

52. She carries most of her weight in her mid section. The arms look good and the legs are coming along!

54. i think she is adorable, she always seems so sweet. At least she knows how 2 dress when she goes 2 the beach, like a normal person, unlike ur other fav mom Brit. A word 2 Brit: take advice from Val, not Hordonna!!

56. Luvtolaugh - how fortunate the world is to have your insightful observations. While I am sure that you are super thin, throwing up everything you eat and all in front of your Nicole Richie shrine, you probably are still fugly as hell. Remember, Valerie can always loose more weight but you are forever fugly. BTW, I am in shape even by your standards, I just don't judge the way you do. How sad your life must be.

57. She may have lost 28 pounds but it sure didn't take her long to find them. Oh, and it sure is hard to tell that she is having a ball from one photograph.

58. You negative folks should get a life...you're just jealous you're not making her money!!!

59. people who criticize other people for their weight are just not happy with themselves so they have to put some one else down to boost their ego's and make them feel good. How sad.
