“I’m feeling great,” she told the outlet. “I’ve lost a lot of weight and it’s really helped with my symptoms. I just still have to wear compression sleeves or guard against nicks and bug bites because that can lead to sepsis.”

The star, who won an Oscar for her role in "Misery," was diagnosed with stage 1 ovarian cancer in 2003. In 2012, she underwent a double mastectomy to treat breast cancer. Now the “American Horror Story” actress seems to be keeping to a much healthier lifestyle and shocked the public with her bold new look.

“Mindfulness, just knowing when to push my plate away,” Bates said. “My niece told me this little secret, I guess it’s no secret, it’s a biological thing, that at some point when you’re eating, you have this involuntary sigh and that’s really your brain and your stomach communicating that you’ve had enough.”
