Kristie Alley's Dieting Success
Kirstie Alley started a highly publicized weight loss program with Jenny Craig in December 2004. Less than one year later, she says she has lost over fifty pounds.
There is a lot of talk online by people questioning if she was honest in stating that her heaviest weight was 219 pounds. 
She does look much heavier in some of the earlier photos given her 5'7" frame.
Kirstie Alley was recently a guest on Oprah's show. She looked fabulous even though she said she would like to lose another thirty pounds. To me she looked incredibly gorgeous for someone who is 54 years old.
The Jenny Craig program says they recommend a weight loss of one to two pounds a week. This sounds like a very reasonable goal to me, much more realistic than all the ads you see for losing nine pounds per week.
The above are two photos of the slimmer Kirstie at last week's Oprah show. The paper models in the background are an approximation of how she looked about a year ago.

The first picture above is Kirstie Alley on the set of Fat Actress. The photo was taken by Randy Tepper of Showtime about a year ago. The other two photos are from Oprah's show in November 2005.
Update: December 31st: Kristie Alley is rumored to be dating Al Pacino. Pacino is 65 years old (and still very dashing). I wish them great joy in their relationship together. She has not dated anyone for the past five years. Update: March 2006: this turns out to be an unsubstantiated rumor.
Update: Happy Birthday to Kirstie Alley as she turns 55 this year. She was born on January 12 1951.
Update June 17th 2006: In Touch Magazine is reporting Kristie has reached her goal weight ahead of time and has lost more than 69 pounds.
Update June 29th: Kirstie Alley is on the cover of People Magazine, July 3rd edition. Here she says she has lost 71 pounds and would like to lose a further fifteen and wear a bikini on TV.
Update July 10th: Kristie Alley is on the cover of New Zealand's Woman's Weekly. Here she says she now weighs 67kg (148 pounds) and says her heaviest point was 100kg (220 lbs).
Update November 6th: Here she is! This is today's shot of Kirstey Alley in a bikini on Oprah's show. She looks fabulous but it looks like she's put on a bit of weight since the last time she was on Oprah? I'll post the video clips here as soon as they are availalbe.
Update November 7th: Here's the video clip of Kirstie Alley in a bikini on Oprah yesterday.

While I might believe she lost 75 lbs or so, there is NO WAY she weighs 148 lbs now (seeing how she is 5'7" or 5'8"). 178 lbs is more likely. She looks like she could easily take off another 25-30 pounds from her legs, so there is no way she is only 148. Oprah looked smaller than Kirstie, and she admits to being about 20 pounds heavier! Kirstie knows first-hand how women are treated in Hollywood - how everyone has unrealistic expectations about how women should look. So instead of standing tall and saying, "I weigh 180 now and I look good!" she perpetuates the Hollywood bulls--t by shaving 20-30 pounds off her numbers - never mind the fact she is helping perpetuate the double-standard and never mind the admiring fans she is possibly hurting in the process. Tell the truth, Kirstie!
Yeah.. I agreed with other people comments on Kristie. she doesn't look like she weigh that 145 lbs. no way!!! maybe 180lbs... I guess everyone is different on their weight .. some weigh more than they look and some weigh less than they look.. but Kristie defintely has big legs. but the rest of her body looks good.. seems like she has two different body in one... it is odd ...
I think she looks great. She has come along way.
I think Kirstie looks awesome! Being a chubby kid myself and losing 73 pounds in my early 20s thanks to Weight Watchers and now in my late 30s Iam struggling to lose 25 pounds after the birth of my daughter, Losing weight is hardest thing ever,So anyway Kirstie keep it up ! :)
Kristi Looks Hot !!! I think she has a body all women should get she is not to skinny she is not to fat !!!!!
Most of your weight is in your legs, and man, she's still got some of those. It's hard to tell though. Some people can weigh very little and some people a lot; it's not all about size. I have a friend who weighs about the same as I do; she's a size 12, i'm a size 6, go figure and we are both about 145 lbs.
If you really want to crack-up on people who lie about their weight, check out Serina Williams, the tennis player, who claims she weighs about 130 lbs. One tennis commentator actually said... "what when she was 13?" Her sister has it right, Venus claims she weighs about 170 lbs.
Kirstie looks fabulous! It does not matter if she lies about her weight or not; that is up to her, and it is not anyones business. She is doing this for herself not you,not the tabloids or anyone else. Come on women that are out there instead of judging her commend her on a job well done.
I love the new look that Kristi is wearing, that body is OMG hot..love the new curves and that full fugure is smoking hot...wow!
Kristi.. You are so hot, I love your smile, Eyes and Most of all your body I would have you stay just the way you are...
I dont care, i think kristy alley did a great job. she inspired me to go on jenny craig i have to lose the same as her i weigh the same as she did when she started and i will be the same weight when im done. i am 5'9 and i will weigh 160 when im done. i do belive she is 160ish because she looks great good job kristy i love you and thank you for your inspiration!

I'm 5'6" and 139 lbs., so roughly the same size as she was in this photo. I look almost identical. I carry all my weight in my legs as well, while my upper body and waist are relatively slim. Don't assume that she's lying just because you're surprised at how other people carry their weight. Pear shaped people lose weight from their least problematic areas first. Believe me, I'd know.
