Funnyman Bill Cosby's TV wife Phylicia Rashad is celebrating after losing 35 pounds in just eight months.

The actress, who played Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show, signed on as a spokesperson for diet and weightloss firm Jenny Craig last year, and she's already a big winner on the scales.

The 61 year old will show off her slimmed-down new look in a new Jenny Craig campaign, which will debut at the end of August.

A statement from Rashad reads, "The most rewarding thing about reaching my goal weight is that I feel so much lighter."
