Jacqueline Laurita Unveils New Look

Jersey Housewife drops 50 lbs.

By Shallon Lester

Jacqueline Laurita of The Real Housewives of New Jersey
Like a caterpillar in a cocoon, Jacqueline Laurita was eager to transform herself before flaunting her figure. In 2009, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star gave birth to son Nicholas, and was determined to lose 50 pounds of baby weight before she would strut her stuff on the red carpet.

Well, Jacqueline has now hit that mark, and is ready to show off her svelte silhouette. Jacqueline stepped out this week, revealing her new dynamite physique. How did she do it? Well, she's crediting the Medifast diet for her new look (she says the program, which consists of portion controlled meals delivered to your home, helped her drop 12 pounds in the first two weeks alone).

Sounds impressive, but we still like our plan: pilates, steamed sweet potatoes, and the power of tiger blood.
