The hilarious actress has hit her stride in every sense of the way. Not only does she look incredible after shedding 22 kilograms, she also bagged the Favorite Comedic Movie Actress at the People’s Choice Awards.

All eyes were on the Bridesmaids beauty when she walked the red carpet in a silk pastel pink tunic, slim-fit black trousers and an elegant pair of pumps.

The mum of two, who is married to Ben Falcone, opted for flowing locks, glowing make-up and a statement ring.

So, what’s her weight-loss secret? Last year Melissa admitted during an interview on American talk show CBS This Morning the trick was not overthinking it.

“I feel amazing and I finally said, ‘Oh, for God sakes, stop worrying about it’ and it may be the best thing I’ve ever done,” the comedienne explained.

“I stopped over-analysing, over-thinking, over-doing anything.”

Melissa, pictured in 2011 on the left, looks noticeably slimmer.

“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.”

She also told Good Housekeeping that she is “weirdly healthy.”

Well, whatever she’s doing it’s working a treat!
