Amanda Bynes looked slimmer than ever as she went for a coffee run in Los Angeles on Friday.
The 40-year-old Easy A star was dressed casually in a black T-shirt and pink shorts that showed off her slender legs as she added white sneakers and carried a black Dior purse.
The former child star has shed pounds thanks to a new weight-loss drug, she has admitted in the past.
Bynes also said that at her heaviest she was 180lbs.
Functional nutritionist Monica Partier told the Daily Mail the movie star looks like she has lost 40lbs and is at 140lbs now.
‘Amanda keeps losing weight week after week, it’s very obvious,’ stated Partier. ‘Whatever she is taking is working well for her.’

‘She must be at her weight goal by now as she seems to be rather thin,’ she added.
If Bynes plays her cards right, she could be able to keep the weight off even if she goes off the medication.’
Partier added, ‘As long as she is eating high-protein, vegetable-loaded meals with little processed foods, little dairy and hardly any sugar, she should be able to stay slender once she quits the medication.
‘There is a way to maintain the weight loss, she just needs to be diligent.’
That means fried foods and a lot of sugary treats are out. ‘If you really want to keep your weight low, you have to stick to whole foods that are full of nutrients. But there are always good fats that can be consumed, like nuts and avocados.’
Bynes rose to fame in the early 2000s for her comedic role on the WB sitcom What I Like About You and several teen-oriented movies, including Hairspray, Big Fat Liar and Easy A.

The charismatic actress’ world started to fall apart in 2012 when she was first arrested in West Hollywood for driving under the influence (DUI). The star was taken into custody after her BMW sideswiped a police car.
In December, Bynes said she shed 28lb after using Ozempic.
She shared a photo of herself on her Instagram Stories in late December and captioned it with: ‘I usually don’t like paparazzi pictures bc I was 180lbs but now I’ve lost 28lbs on ozempic! I’m down to 152lbs. I know I still look big but this photo is really inspiring to me! [sic]’
In June 2025, the former child star, who quit showbiz over a decade ago due to numerous personal problems, including an addiction to the ADHD prescription medication Adderall, revealed in a video that she turned to the weight-loss drug in a bid to reach her ideal weight of 130lb.
The Hairspray performer explained on Instagram: ‘I’m going on Ozempic. So excited.
‘I’m 173 now so I hope to get down to like 130, which would be awesome so I look better in paparazzi pictures. I will post about my Ozempic journey of course.’
She had explained in 2024 that depression caused her to gain 20lb, divulging that her ultimate goal was to return to her teenage weight of 110lb; above, aged 16 in 2002
In March 2024, Bynes shared on Instagram that she had piled on more than 20lbs after she had depression.
The Love Wrecked star said: ‘I’m doing a lot better now and have learned to do opposite action when I don’t feel like working out or eating clean. I weigh 162lb. right now and want to get back to 110lb.’
Last year, she announced on Instagram that she was launching an OnlyFans account.
Speaking about why she decided to join the platform – a paid internet content subscription service that is popular with pornographers, but is also used by other content creators – Bynes said: ‘Disclaimer: I’m doing OnlyFans to chat with my fans through DMs. I won’t be posting any sleazy content.’
