Look at Skinny Ricki!

Admittedly, I was a big Ricki Lake fan back in the 90's when she had her own talk show. My friends and I would gather in our suite room, in good 'ol Irving Hall, and settle in for whatever antics Ricki's guests were about to take part in. A frat boy friend of ours, Taco Tom (he ate a lot of Taco Bell), was actually in love with the Rickster. And she was not 123 pounds back then.

Taco will be salivating now when he gets a look at Ricki's new bod on the cover of this week's Us Weekly. The mom of two talks about her struggles with her once 250 pound frame and how she's managed to squeeze herself into a size 4 without surgery.

I'll say it again- Go, Ricki! Go, Ricki! Go, Ricki!
