Following the end of "The Parkers" in the early 2000s, most of its stars have gone on to create successful careers for themselves, including Mo'Nique, who has bagged an Oscar award.

In addition to her acting career, another notable thing about Mo'Nique is the physical changes she has experienced over the past few years.

The actress who was considered one of the big women of Hollywood in the past embarked on a fitness journey that has left her with a trimmer and toned figure.

In 2014, Mo'Nique reportedly revealed that her husband, Sidney Hicks, inspired her to lose weight after saying he would like to have her around for a lifetime.

From that day, Mo'Nique made a decision that would change her life, and now, all of the actress's hard work is obviously paying off as she only gets hotter by the day.
