Kathy Bates, 70, looks Unrecognisable as she debuts raven pixie crop and slimmed-down frame at LA dinner... after revealing she has lost 60LBS
She recently revealed she had dropped 60lbs and now felt like a 'completely different person.'
And Kathy Bates looked Unrecognisable as she stepped out for dinner at Craig's Restaurant in West Hollywood on Wednesday.
The Oscar-winning actress, 70, showed off her transformation as she debuted a new raven pixie crop and showcased her lithe figure while making a glowing arrival to the eaterie.
The Misery actress revealed her slimmed-down figure in a stylish navy slip, paired with a matching tailored pinstripe blazer.
Keeping with the blue theme, she exhibited her toned legs in navy culottes and patent leather loafers.
And she swapped her elegant silver bob for the edgy ebony look, which was styled in a tousled side-parting.
Showing off her ageless complexion, the star opted for a slick of pink lipstick and mascara for her make-up look, completing her accessories with black rimmed spectacles.
The sighting comes as the American Horror Story star opened up about her weight loss journey and how her 'little niece' taught her to simply train her mind to 'push the plate away'.
Asked how she shed the pounds, she told Us Weekly magazine: 'Mindfulness, just knowing when to push my plate away.'
She continued: 'My niece told me this little, secret, I guess it's no secret, it's a biological thing, that at some point when you're eating, you have this involuntary sigh and that's really your brain and your stomach communicating that you've had enough.
'The trick is to pay attention to that and push your plate away. It took a few years. I would say you have to be really patient ... I don't like the word willpower, but I like the word determination.'
The actress battled ovarian and bre-st cancer in 2003 and 2012 respectively, and feels the healthiest she has ever been, but she wishes she had decided to lead a fitter lifestyle 'years ago'.
She said: 'I have never been in such good health. I just had a physical. I'm doing great... I feel like a completely different person. I can move, I can walk. I just wish I had done it years ago.'
To treat her cancer Kathy underwent a double mastectomy, and previously revealed she chose not to get reconstructive surgery as she doesn't believe she needs to 'pretend' that she has bre-sts.
She said: 'I've joined the ranks of women who are going flat, as they say. I don't have bre-sts - so why do I have to pretend like I do? That stuff isn't important.
'I'm just grateful to have been born at a time when the research made it possible for me to survive. I feel so incredibly lucky to be alive.'
