Valerie Bertinelli — Bikini Babe!

Jacksonville - “It is never too late to get your body back,” according to former child star turned Jenny Craig spokeswoman, and now bikini babe, Valerie Bertinelli.
As the 48-year-old beauty lost 40 pounds following a strict diet and exercise regimen from Jenny Craig, Bertinelli bears down to a two-piece green string bikini on the cover of the latest issue of People magazine.
Bertinelli has always voiced her chronic battle with losing and gaining weight in her Jenny Craig ads. Her split from rocker Eddie Van Helen in 2005 was apart of the motivation to write her memorable autobiography, “Losing It-And Gaining My Life Back One Pound at a Time.”
Nearly two years ago, Bertinelli tipped the scales at 172 lbs, far surpassing the healthy weight range for her 5”4 height. In 9 months, she lost 40 pounds and now weighs a healthy and comfortable 132lbs.
Bertinelli credits her weight loss to walking 10,000 steps a day, cutting out salt and a strict caloric intake of 1,700 calories, although she admitted that three weeks prior to the People Magazine photo shoot, she reduced her caloric intake to 1,200 calories. She hired a personal trainer in December and soon after, begun running five times per week.
