Renee Zellweger Update
May 14th, 2009 by Rian | Filed under Renee Zellweger, Skinny Celebrities.Renee Zellweger was spotted leaving the Byron Tracey salon in Beverly Hills yesterday afternoon…

She’s thin as usual but not quite as scary skinny as she was in summer 2007…
Renee has gone up and down in weight over the years, due to various movie roles where she has had to gain weight. In 2004 she revealed how she lost the Bridget Jones weight:
Now back to her model-thin size, Zellweger reveals her diet secret: “Fruit for breakfast, salad for lunch, fish for dinner and running. You run to the gym and you run back from the gym. It’s just math. And how much you really care.”
There have also been rumors over the past couple of years that when on location for a movie, Renee lives primarily on eggs and sushi. (I somehow doubt that is true!)

She looks very thin but healthy and not nearly as frail as she looked when she was too skinny.
She looks great an very fit! I prefer her thin!
The bag she has is very cool!
I think she has a really cute shape, but for someone who is so into diet and exercise her face and eyes are very puffy.
Bulimia maybe?
At least she’s honest – it’s clearly very important to her to be skinny and she works her butt off to achieve it. She earns this figure.
It’s quite refreshing to hear this, as we’re normally told “Oh, I have a high metabolism blah blah”, which we all know is not true.
She looks fine here, I’d say she’s got a few more pounds on her frame than she has in the past.
She’s thin and it’s nice to know she works at it. But there’s something about her legs (calves) that I don’t like.
And her face is always so puffy.
Oh, she is a butterface if there ever was one. Her weight looks better, but she’ll always look like Tweety bird to me.
I think she looks great: tiny, fit and with shapely arms and legs.
she looks so great!! slim and very toned!
YEAH ‘CAUSE WHO ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT ENJOYING LIFE WHEN YOU CAN SPEND ALL OF YOUR TIME IN THE GYM AND COUNTING CALORIES… RENE HUN, LIVE A LITTLE! THAT SAID, NO I’M NOT FAT, I’M JUST SICK OF THESE CONTROL FREAKISH HAS-BEENS.
She looks fit. Shapely muscular legs.
I think she looks fantastic. Trim & healthy.
I like her body, just not her face. She has an amazing and toned body
Any ideas where the purse is from?
I like her a lot, and she’s my role model for determination.
I’d do her!
I would KILL for her body. Her legs in Chicago were SICK!!!! All the yo yo up and down has to be wreaking havoc on her body tho. Its not natural to keep getting bigger and smaller.
i think she is the ugliest person. she has such a sour face. as my dad says, she always looks like she just ate a lemon. haha
Good body, her face not so much, i always thought she has an ed, don’t know why, maybe her, very strange, face.
I have a total soft spot for Renee.
Not your conventional beauty but she’s got sparkle. I like her figure, very fit but not bulky muscle like Ripa.
Like the leggings and trainers too, she looks really good. Make’s all that hard work worth while.
I think she looks great IMHO. Way better then when she was pin-thin like a year and a bit ago. To me, she’s always had something special about her.
Her weight looks perfect here. Slim and fit.
That pretty much sounds like my diet (except I admit to having the odd snack which she clearly doesn’t) and I run about 6 miles 5 times a week. And I’m so much fatter than her haha. Oh well. Eurgh, everyone should feel lucky they don’t have an underactive thyroid (N).
Anyway, she looks really toned. Can’t stand her face though or the wierd things she does with it. She seems pretty stuck up as well. But yeah, I manage to look past that to watch Bridget Jones every xmas. Such a good film.
i think she looks great! thin but healthy with a good bum.
5′5, 110? i think she was around 100 in her skinny-mini days & 125 for brigette jones (though i think she gained more weight for the 2nd movie)
she looks average and boring. Her body is decent, but her face is not spectacular. At least she can act.
Swollen face, puffy cheeks, addicted to workouts and diets. There´s no joy in her life and this is what her face shows. I guess 5´4 and 120 pounds…
I’ve met Renee a few times and she happens to be far from stuck up. She is very sweet and down to earth. A real southern girl. Sadly I do believe she is very neurotic about her weight as so many actresses are. Her over exercising has aged her. I agree that bulimia is her ED, as she has bouts of facial puffiness that seem contrary to her body weight.
One can only guess she has malnutrition with the way she eats and diets.
Thank you for posting Renee, Rian, I love her. She’s looking really good now, she was definitely too thin before. So thin in fact, that I prefered her at her Bridget Jones weight. I saw ‘The Edge of Reason’ again last night, in which she’s even bigger than in ‘The Diary of…’. In both movies she looks fine: great boobs!!!
I LOVE her!!! Thanks for featuring her Rian! I think she looks great and I would kill to look as good as she does when I am 40. And I think her bag looks like it’s Stella McCartney for LeSportsac?
Renee claims to be 5′3″.
Eh, ok I guess.
Wow…her proportions are perfect
She looks very toned and fit
I think she looked great in “jerry maguire”..! her face was fine then too, imo, but has changes so much since then.. that was at the very beginning at her carreer, i guess, before she started her extreme dieting..it has only made her less attractive..
Her bag is Tod’s, for those who asked.Her body looks great!
She’s so fit! I’m jealous.
@Suz, the bag is TOD’S, Luna media.
that outfit on someone not as trim and toned would look a nightmare
She has definite food/body image issues. I mean, I obviously can’t say so for sure, but it certainly seems that way. Everything I’ve read indicates that she is obsessive about running and working out and that she eats a very restrictive diet consisting mostly of lean proteins and vegetables.
Looks to be at a healthy lean weight. GO RENEE! I wish I could run like her.
It’s pretty doubtful that someone who is neurotic about their weight would take on a role that required them to gain a ton of weight and sacrifice their body.
Eggs and sushi? I can’t imagine the farts that must come out of that woman!
She looks MUCH better and not scary at all. Renee looks softer, more feminine and much more attractive, even in her sweats.
Great body!!!
hmm.
That little quote made me like her a bit more. “It’s just math..depending on how much you care..” etc. etc. it’s true.
I like her body at this weight. thumbs up, R.
ordinary
yeah she looks good. its interesting the lengths some people have to go to to stay/get thin. Eating primarily eggs and sushi is obviously going against nature and trying to get a body that she wasn’t meant to have. I get the feeling her Bridget Jones body is closer to her natural one
I actually think her body in Bridget Jones was really good on her, it suited her. Her body in Chicago was hideous! This one is ok, but her face looks out of place.
Jen…..you think like I do!!!
She eats fruit, salad, fish, and then runs? That’s technically called starving.
Her diet doesn’t appear to be over 500 calories. And she runs. Clearly she’s starving herself… she is not this naturally thin at all. I can understand the pressure she’s under, but these actresses really don’t set good examples at all…
I would die with that “diet”. When I cut off carbs, I can’t stand my own acid breath. Eww.
I agree with Fiona, she’s my role model for determination. She may have an annoying personality, but I don’t have a tv, so fortunately I never hear her speak.
she was LEAVING the salon looking like this??
SHE IS UGLY AND PALE!!
I’ve heard that she is bulimic. maybe when she’s not binging and purging regularly she restricts and over-exercises. but yeah, definitely a puffy face.
hopefully it’s not true but whatever she’s doing isn’t healthy. it’s obvious this isnt her natural body. she could gain a few, still be in good shape and look a lot better for her age. i bet her bone density level is scary low.
one good thing – she looks not bad with sunglasses on. i hate her eyes. makes her look decent.
Her body looks cute and healthy!
she has an amazing body, you can especially see it in the 3rd pic. she works hard for it so good luck to her.
i looooove her body she looks so toned and fit no bulges at all
didn’t her boobs use to be way smaller???????????
didn’t her breasts use to be waaaay smaller????
Her body is great, but her face is always scrunched up, like she’s squinting. She always looks like she’s gonna cry!
Jen- you cracked me up.
As for miss Zellweger, I am envious.
Not of the obsession, but of her legs. I WISH my thighs were that perfect!
(Too bad I hate running. Maybe that’s the only way to perfect legs).
As for her diet, sounds pretty good to me although we don’t know just how many vegetables or how much protein she’s actually eating. My guess is she’s getting under 1000 calories a day- something that will catch up with her once her body decides it’s not willing to be worked this hard anymore…
She looks absolutely fabulous.
Her body is so slim!
she looks good!
She looks great. I am so happy to see her without that hideous short haircut she insisted on sportin’ a while back.
She looks good.
her boobs look bigger than they normally do. almost fake-like?
She looks great! Fit and healthy. Nice muscular legs.
I have a funny story about renee. I always seem to see her when she is in the city, and she is ALWAYS in workout clothes. If u think she is thin in these pictures she is beyond thin in real life and it has totally aged her. Anyway when she is nyc she goes to equinox on 59/ columbus circle. My friend Lindsay and I once took the elevator with her at the gym, and we (don’t know where we got the balls from) started singing selections from Chicago. Needless to say she didn’t look very happy! Anyway so Lindsay and I must have stayed at the gym for about an hour and a half and as we were leaving Renee was still going on the treadmill. Hadn’t stop since we arrived. Later that day I go to visit my friend who is a trainer at equinox on 63 and lex and guess who I see leaving that gym, RENEE. My friend, the trainer, turns to me, and says, she been running for at least an hour if not longer. All in the same day. She needs to get a life!!! PS equinox is the best place to see celebs working out. My fav thus far was taylor momsun (jenny from gossip girl) walking on the treadmill, in full make-up while drinking starbucks coffee. I nearly pissed myself.
wow she looks pretty good.
I have always heard that extreme dieting causes a reaction by the body that makes it think it is starving, so it does everything it can to slow down the metabolism and conserve calories—just what the dieter does not want it to do.
There are very few women who do the opposite—eat unnaturally large amounts of food to become fat on purpose–I wonder what the body thinks of all those calories it does not need—did her gaining weight for that movie make her metabolism run faster in the long run? Maybe it has all evened out…I wondered the same thing about Charlize Theron.
I’m pretty sure that’s a linea pelle bag. I think the comment about her pale skin is ridiculous, usually she has a bit of a ruddy complexion and it looks really great here. As for her boobs, she’s probably just wearing a good fitting, slightly padded t shirt bra. They don’t look fake. I think her body fat’s gotta be in the single digits.
i stand corrected, not a linea pelle bag
I think she looks great–I don’t consider her very attractive, but she is a great actress and she really is truthful about her hard work.
I think she is a sad, lonely woman who exercises and diets to compensate for her disasterous love life. She looks great, don’t get me wrong, but I bet she feels like shit unless she has work or fitness to distract her
I’ve always liked her. She has a fit figure and is one of the best actresses there are at the moment.
LOL Jen!
Renee looks great here. I hope she is happy.
her figure looks the best i can remember it to look in a long time. she looks healthy and her face looks much prettier and softer without a lot of make-up on it. she looks really pretty.
A bit “sad looking” outfit…grey isnt the best color for her
She looks great. She gets so gaunt and hard looking when she’s too thin. But here she looks fantastic.
For someone who is allegedly on a very restrictive diet and obsessively exercises, Renee has some muscular thighs and big calves. I thought she would be more sinewy than this. Anyhow, I like her very much. She seems very down-to-earth. Who cares if she’s always working out? Personally, I’d rather be at the gym than at some bar/club surrounded by lame ‘Sex in the City’ wannabes and poser metrosexual douchebags. Being single sucks!
@Shaun: thanks for that anecdote, I really enjoyed reading it! I’m totally jealous of you, being able to spot celebrities in person. I do feel sorry for Renee, though. Like you say, she needs to get herself a life pronto!
@J is a tod’s bag called luna media.
Not bad at all, and her face looks surprisingly fresh. Come on, puffy? Because of one unflattering picture?
I’m sure if the paparazzi wanted to, they could make me look double-chinned, and I’m thin.
Renee sure looks like she overexercises, which is not healthy – fit and healthy don’t always come together btw, and while she looks physically fit, I have doubts she is really healthy.
But bulimic..nah, I would judge so fast..
^ meant ‘wouldn’t’ instead of ‘would’, obviously
how can anyone diagnose bulimia without knowing her?
a bad case of no matter how skinny she has destroyed her face and now looks bad
@Shaun- yeah, thanks for the reality bit!
This makes me very, very sad.
She is not going to be able to do this forever. Either her heart or her head will finally cave.
Cute story, Shaun. (:o] Maybe there’s a THIRD equinox you missed that day! (?)
this woman is disgusting…i find her so repulsive and i couldn’t even tell you why…maybe because she is sooo creepy looking and her body is weird…she needs a tan too yuck
nice behind. I still feel a bit bad for her, she must be starving herself to look like that.
I think her body is just perfect, but at the same time she kinda makes me sad. As someone already said, she seems like she’s not enjoying life it self at all, she’s just losing weight and training and losing some more weight. But on the other hand, what would I know about her life.
What comes to her talent as an actress, yeah, not big fun of her..
She looks good here..
She is very realistic, and know what it takes to keep her weight at her preference. She doesn’t sugar coat the hard work it takes.
Boy, if her face is puffy because she’s bulimic then she’s been bulimic for a long time (she’s always had a puffy face), and she couldn’t be healthy. I hope that’s not the case.
love the TOD’s bag!!!!
