Kirstie Alley’s Weight Gain

The media is all over Kirstie Alley’s latest weight gain. In just a couple of weeks time she’s been on the Oprah show and had her face splattered across tabloids. She also gave an interview with People Magazine where she graces the cover and quotes,
“Yes, I gained 83 pounds.”
Well, there’s no hiding that. During the interview she recalled the first time she weighed herself again after 15 months and she was shocked at what the scales revealed.
“It said 228 lbs., which is my highest weight ever. I was so much more disgusting than I thought!”
She went on to explain how she had let herself go again once she finished her contract with Jenny Craig.
“It started with New Year’s [2008], right after leaving Jenny Craig. When you’re a spokesperson for Jenny Craig, there’s responsibility. You have a person every week standing over you when you get on the scale, and I did it naked because those panties could weigh 30 lbs.! It was amazingly successful. But the first nail in the coffin was that I didn’t have to weigh in. I just sort of went wild.”
She also explained that this time when she gained weight it was different than the other times when she had a big sweet tooth.
“My food demons are Chinese food, sugar, butter. A lot of butter. If I’m at the movies, usually I eat popcorn without butter, but I’d say, “I’m at the movies, so who cares?” And toast with butter. Or let’s say I had two cups of pasta and six tablespoons of butter on it. There was a lot of butter going on.” she continues, “For seven months I was a vegetarian, and I can’t tell you how much weight I gained being a vegetarian! A vegetarian would probably be eating vegetables. But to me being a vegetarian meant I’m going to eat enchiladas with no meat, and I’m going to eat lots of bread, lots of carbs.”
Now she is back on the diet bandwagon and is trying to lose the weight once again and get back to a bikini baring body.
“I have to be below 140 to really look good. I have to work my legs like crazy. Actually, do you want my real goal? My real goal’s always too low. I love the way I look at, like, 128. One time on Cheers, I weighed about 148 lbs., and they told me to lose, like, 20 lbs. Now, I’m 5′8″, so at 148 lbs., I wasn’t fat. But they’re saying, ‘You know, you need to lose 20 lbs.’ So what does that put me at? 128. That’s where I keep getting this number.”
