Melissa McCarthy Reveals Her Weight Loss Secret And It's SO EASY

Melissa McCarthy is awesome. Whether she's making us laugh in one of her movies, or shutting down critics, the woman is a class act.

She is now on the latest cover of PEOPLE looking noticeably thinner, and the accompanying article explains how she lost the weight in a positive, body loving way.

She just decided to not care about her weight anymore, and soon enough, the fat started to melt away.

"I truly stopped worrying about it," she told PEOPLE. "I stopped over-analyzing, over-thinking, over-doing anything. I kinda went back to when I was pregnant and I just stopped constantly being worried about it and I think there's something to kinda loosening up and not being so nervous and rigid about it that, bizarrely, has worked. I could've figured that out before 44, but whatever."
