Hart Says Weight Loss Came from Willpower, Not Liposuction

Speculators wonder whether actress Melissa Joan Hart resorted to liposuction or another cosmetic surgery procedure to shed her baby weight. But the mother of two insists she shed her baby weight through exercise and smart food choices.

Melissa Joan Hart's weight loss raises eyebrowsRemember Melissa Joan Hart, the adorable starlet of Sabrina the Teenage Witch? The show ran on ABC in the late 1990s, but the once-popular actress has had a spell of sour press since it left the airwaves in 2000. And, after the birth of her two children, she also packed on a few extra pounds.

Of course, having two kids in three years can put a few pounds on any woman. No big deal, right? Most of America is totally cool with that.

Hollywood, however, is not like most of America. And when swimsuit photos of Hart looking matronly and morose made the scandal sheets last summer, Melissa Joan Hart faced the possibility of total career crash.

That’s when the winsome witch made the decision to lose weight. 14 months of diet and exercise later, Hart is tanned, toned, and back in bikini shape.

But is her swimsuit success story really a tale of hard work and self-denial – or is it a testament to the skill and secrecy of Hollywood’s plastic and cosmetic surgery community?

It’s all her, she says. The no-longer-teenage witch explains her new slim shape is the result of clean living – and, amazingly, she may be on the level. A number of practicing plastic surgeons on a popular celebrity-focused website were recently polled about Hart’s once-again buff body, and their consensus is that she probably did slim down by changing her lifestyle, including a sensible diet and regular exercise.

In any case, we’re glad to see that Melissa Joan Hart is back – bright-eyed, bikini-clad, and more charming than ever.

    This chump DID have liposuction on her hips and thighs! Having kids would make her butt bigger not make her figure change! She used to have a big butt and thighs now she has a bigger gut like she’s carrying her weight there! Please H-wood, don’t lie! She had a big butt as a teen but now it’s suddenly GONE?
