Valerie Bertinelli Credits Weight Loss To One Thing

Valerie Bertinelli is opening up about her recent weight loss and the one thing that truly helped her. On her TikTok account, Valerie shared a video of herself walking and talking about how she decided to give up drinking alcohol for the month of January.

It has become a popular trend to give up alcohol in January and is often called Dry January. After the holidays, when many people indulge too much, it can be helpful to take a break. Valerie decided to try the experiment and shared her results.

She said in the video, “So, here’s a nice little side effect of Dry January. These jeans that I’m wearing were so tight a few months ago that I couldn’t comfortably button them. Now, they’re so loose it’s time for me to go down a size. Yeah, I like that side effect.”

Valerie previously shared why she wanted to participate in Dry January. She said, “One, I want to try and cut down the cravings for my sugar. And I think alcohol exacerbates that. I want to calm down the cortisol in my body that has been raging for the last five, six years. I’ve been in fight, flight, freeze, fawn mode. And I want to go into rest and digest. I think cutting alcohol will help me do that.”

It sounds like Dry January truly helped Valerie and she encouraged her fans to try the challenge as well.
