Ricki Lake

Splashing onto the scene in 1988’s cult classic hit Hairspray, Lake went on to become the youngest host of a talk show in 1993 when she was only 24. Her battles with depression saw her weight fluctuate wildly, and at time she weighed as much as 260 pounds. She lost a lot of it by cutting calories and running daily, but was having trouble keeping it off. She then joined Dancing with the Stars and lost another 20 pounds.
