Reports vary, but most recent estimates say Melissa McCarthy has lost around 90–95 pounds in total over the course of her ongoing weight‑loss journey. Some outlets previously reported milestones like 70–75 pounds lost, with later coverage updating that figure to roughly 95 pounds as she continued to slim down.
Public estimates
Several entertainment and celebrity news outlets describe her recent transformation as “about 95 pounds” or “nearly 95 pounds,” reflecting her appearance at events in 2025 and on Saturday Night Live. Earlier reports in past years focused on lower numbers (around 70–75 pounds), which appear to have been surpassed as she continued losing weight.
Important caveats
The exact amount is not officially confirmed by McCarthy herself, so all specific numbers are media estimates based on unnamed sources and visual comparisons. Her interviews emphasize changing her mindset, healthier habits, and avoiding extreme diets now, rather than focusing on a specific number on the scale.
