Valerie Bertinelli: Chunk Change

Keep it up!!

Val's always looked just as cute as a button, Jenny or no Jenny!

I agree see is a bit overweight, but she is not more overweight than the average American woman. I rather look at her, even with the extra weight, than at many younger, skinny but unpleasant and selfish starlets. So what if she is a bit big - overeating not good, but it is still not as unhealthy (or anti-social, or even dangerous) as drinking too much or doing drugs. And she wears a tastefull bathing suit covering her tummy, it's not as if the flab is all over the place or that she shoves it in your face - she is at the beach with her child. I don't think the kid should miss out on a beach vacation just because his mum is a few kilo's overweight. If you don't like is, look the other way.

Anyway, she still has a gorgeous face, comes a across a an easy going person and a good mom and she is classy, too, never saying anything nasty about her ex-husband (unlike some other divorcees). I think that's why so many people commenting here are on her side: they just like her for who she is, and whether she is slim or chubby makes no difference in how she is perceived. I hope she is above all the nasty comments some gossip magazines, blogs and bloggers make about her weight. Anyway, it looks like most comments here a supportive of her efforts to get slim - that's great.

For all the people (and I'd assume you're of the Y generation) who are trashing her, you are insensitive idiots. Valerie is now and has always been a beautiful woman. When I was a teenager, all of the girls wanted to look like her and all the guys had a crush on her. She is a level headed...and STILL fresh faced beauty. Let me tell all of you young people something...when you hit your mid-40s, it's H-A-R-D to keep that 20 year old body, whether you have been naturally fit and slim your whole life. I wish her all the best....

i believe that valerie bertinelli looks great. I wish i could afford to do Jenny Craig's diet to get back down to the weight that I was before I married my husband, but I can't afford it now. My husband is retired and we on a fix income being that I am particle disable. Keep it up girl. You're looking great.
