Sara Rue Amazing Weight Loss Before Hosting 'Shedding For The Wedding'

Actress Sara Rue lost 50 pounds since signing on as a spokesperson for Jenny Craig last December and People Magazine reports it is the result of marathan training and combination of the program. She lost 40 lbs in May.

The 31-year-old celebrity will be hosting 'Shedding for the Wedding', a midseason reality show on the CW. No date has yet been announced for the series in which ten overweight couples will live together over three months, and will battle for the wedding of their dreams. One couple will be eliminated at the end of each episode for least amount of weight loss.

Rue says that she now knows how to control her portions, and eat healthy. The actress said, "I have such a better relationship with food than I’ve ever had in my life... I've learned how to control portions, I've learned how to eat healthfully."

It is not only the food control that helped Rue to lose weight. She also exercises. She does Cardio for more than 45 minutes per day for 5-6 days a week and she had spent the first few months of the program doing marathon, 10,000 steps every day monitored by pedometer.

Earlier, she could barely squeeze into a size 14, but with her 50 lbs weight loss she's now a lean size 6.

Rue said now she can run for two-and-a-half hours straight, but earlier it was only one minute of run and then walk for ten minutes. She admits, it was beyond her thinking six months before that she could run this much.

The actress is also busy these days planning for her wedding in 2011 to fiance Kevin Price, a teacher. Recently she popped into Vera Wang in Beverly Hills to try on wedding gowns at a 70 percent off sale.
