The talkshow host previously admitted that she has gained "about 15 pounds" since meeting fiancé Christian Evans last year, but has now insisted that working out with professional partner Derek Hough has helped her slim down.
Lake told Us Weekly: "Every time I show up for work, I'm like 'I got smaller', but I haven't weighed myself."
Lake also teased that dropping excess weight has allowed her to broaden her wardrobe.
"Oh my God, I put on my jeans - my size six jeans! They were too tight to put on a month ago, and they're now falling off. So, that doesn't lie," she commented.
Lake recently claimed to have shed 8.5 inches from her body since joining Dancing with the Stars.
Dancing with the Stars airs tonight and Tuesday at 8/7c on ABC.
