How you doin', Wendy Williams?

The short answer is she's looking and feeling great! In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday, the outspoken talk-show host traveled down to Bal Harbour, Fla., where her parents like to live it up.

After celebrating with family, the 51-year-old was spotted dipping her feet in the ocean blue water while wearing a black one-piece with a blinged-out barrette.

She was later seen getting some R&R by the sand as she read her beloved tabloid magazines. After all, someone has some hot topics to deliver Tuesday on an all-new Wendy Williams Show.

Williams' latest beach outing comes after the comedian revealed her 50-pound weight loss on her popular YouTube channel.

In a Q&A video chat with fans this past October, Williams shared some of her weight-loss tips for viewers at home.

"I can't say that that has made me lose weight because I already lost 50 pounds in three years, which I find to be amazing," she explained after dropping meat, refined sugars, dairy and eating after dark. "Because, of all the crazy diets I've been on, none have ever been as effective as [saying to myself], 'Just push back, fatso. Just stop eating so much.'"

She continued, "I go to the gym because it's not about me losing weight at this point, it's about me trying to fight heart disease."

While she prefers cardio and Pilates when she's breaking a sweat, Williams also acknowledged that results take time. With a little bit of hard work, however, progress can be made.

"Slow and steady is the name of the game. It's not going to happen overnight," she confessed. "I no longer believe in fad diets, crash diets. I don't believe in diet pills. I don't want my heart to race and pop out of my chest."

She added, "Yes, I did have a jump-start because years ago I did get the liposuction and a tummy tuck, but I have to say that, if there is a poster child for plastic surgery and the jump-off to a new lifestyle, it would be me."
