This weekend, the saucy funnywoman put a photo on Instagram showing a weight loss of over 100 pounds—reportedly she dropped the pounds with celebrity dance instructor and fitness coach Dwight Holt.

We all know that Mo can definitely cut a rug (who could forget her channeling Beyoncé’s "Crazy in Love” years ago?). In the tradition of other big black folks who get busy on the dance floor (see Heavy D, and Rerun from What’s Happening?), Mo has always moved her body, which all of us need to do more.

Brava, Miss Mo!
