Rosie O’Donnell took to TikTok on Wednesday to reveal her 10-pound weight loss and reveal that she’s “very happy.”
The 60-year-old comedian claimed she’s managed to burn the fat since Christmas in the cheerful video, which was filmed while taking her daughter Dakota, 10, to school.
She told her fans: “Good morning! I’m on my way to school to drop her off and I have to let you know that I’ve lost 10 pounds since Christmas.’

Rosie, who once weighed 16.5 stone, continued: “10 pounds! I am very happy. TikTok, you don’t stop.”
The TV personality vowed to change her life after suffering a massive heart attack in 2012.
She subsequently lost nearly 50 pounds, falling from 230 pounds to nearly 180 pounds, following vertical gastric sleeve surgery in July 2013.
The funny woman’s weight caused other health problems like high blood pressure, high cholesterol and prediabetes.

It comes after The View alum revealed why she skipped the daytime episode of the ABC talk show in honor of its late creator, Barbara Walters.
“Yeah, they invited me, but I couldn’t make it,” the Long Island native replied to a fan on TikTok last week.

“You know, I didn’t want to be in a big group of people. I don’t know, I was afraid I would get upset and didn’t want to, so go for it.’
When the three-time Daytime Emmy winner passed away at her home in New York earlier this month at the age of 93, Rosie shared a touching TikTok of her memory.
“Very sad to hear of the passing of Barbara Walters. Although, 93, man. Who wouldn’t take that? What a long and eventful and legendary life she’s had,” O’Donnell – who has 3.7million social media followers – said on Friday night.
“I’ve spoken to every prominent leader in the world I’ve ever met. I have interviewed everyone who was anyone and I have been fortunate to be in their orbit for many years. And we’ve seen a lot of Broadway shows together. And whenever we went backstage, I’d like to try and help her with the steps backstage.
“And she used to slap me on the hand and tell me to leave her alone [laughs]. She knew what she was doing, I can tell you that. May she rest in peace and may everyone remember the barriers she broke down for women. She really did. She was the first and will always be remembered.’
The 12-time Emmy winner was a presenter on The View from September 2006 to May 2007, where she made headlines and garnered ratings largely for her political debates with outspoken Republican Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
