Kirstie Alley in a BIKINI on Oprah!

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

SHE LOOKED fabulous!!!!! i watched the show and thought it was great!!
-----

i didn't know the other shows lied about weight, why would they do that??

 

[lesroi]

She was wearing "stripper hose" on the show. If I had "stripper hose" I would wear a bikini too! Makes you look smooth and lean.

Where do you get these hose? You know, not for me, for a friend...

Wow - she does look great in that photo! I doubt she's 145, too.

I think the reason she might not have a belly is because she has not given birth. Just a thought. I blame my belly on my kids .

I thought she had a two children with actor Parker Stevenson? Or are they adopted?

I did not see the show...but just the same as others have posted...she does look fabulous especially if you remember how she had basically let herself go prior to Oprah contacting her and working with her to start Jenny Craig...and I agree as well...I do not think she looks 145lbs...but looking that great she should be honest and give her actual weight.

She does look good in the photo.

I just can't figure out how individuals get the 'belly' down. I lose weight but my belly is still in no shape for a bikini. I think no matter how many crunches and weight loss my belly would still 'sag'.

I know you didn't ask for my advice but I'm going to give it to you anyway. Two things that work for nice abs - eat less fat, and Pilates.

I'm told you have to either cut wayyyy back or cut them out totally - CARBS - to get rid of the belly......

Not to get OT with this...but...I started w/o w/trainer at my gym 6 months ago...and I will just tell you before we even started, she took one look at me (belly issues) and said "you are eating wayyyy to many carbs"...."that is where your belly fat comes from"....I wondered to myself...was she or has she been "spying on me" as she was 100% CORRECT. I already KNEW I was getting too many carbs.

Yup, cut out the carbs and you WILL notice a difference.

Looks nice but no way she weighs only 145 pounds.

What is it with these shows and not giving the actual weight. Biggest loser, Fit Club, and now this. I can't imagine the people who look like them and weigh much more feel good about the lying. I know we don't.

I agree. Kirstie Alley is a big girl, and tall -- no way does she way 145 pounds. 180 would be my guess. I don't get why they lie about it either -- I guess the producers of these shows think we are stupid. I can judge from my own size how much someone weighs, within 10 pounds or so, especially other women.

In any case, I adore her, always have. I'm thrilled she stuck to the plan and lost weight like the rest of us commoners -- she is a gorgeous woman and if I look half that good at 55 I'll be thrilled!

I blame my belly on my kids .

Yep, I agree.

Kirstie looks great in that photo.

I lost 50 lbs on Weight Watchers, got down to 125, but after 4 kids, there is NOTHING I've done or can do, except maybe a tummy tuck, to make the belly flat and tight again. Not gonna happen!

 

[disykat]

I believe she weighs 145 - or close to it. She looks WAAAY better than I do when I'm 145 - and at 5'6", when I'm 145 I wear a size 12. I have always looked bigger than others who weigh the same as I do.

When you take into account that the camera adds pounds, I think they're not that far off.

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

I agree that she does look much better, but there is NO way she is 145. Maybe if she cut off 1 leg.
C'mon, Kirstie... fess up... you're closer to 160.
For 55 she does look pretty darn good. Even her face looks pretty good.
And the secret was she had her stripper hose pulled up to her b**bs! See how shiny her belly looked?
But I still love her... she's a total nut ball!

 

[Honu]

She looks good, but I would guess her current weight is 170. TV does add some.

170 + 75 = 245

Yep, 245 is probably close to her beginning weight, which I think she stated was 200.

 

[inaminute]

Where do you get these hose? You know, not for me, for a friend...

From the stripper store, of course.

 

[CindyBella]

OMG! I googled stripper hose and scary things popped up....even on ebay Kirstie wasn't wearing those!

I agree. I believe she is within about 5 pounds of 145. I am shorter, (5'4") but people carry weight differently, and I don't look nearly that good and I weighed 164 last Tuesday....and just so you know, I lift weights every day--usually do another hour on the treadmill too--so you know I am toned and fit! But I still have at least 10 pounds to go to look like that.

Really, why would she lie? That's silly. She may lie about a couple pounds so as not to be in the 150s, but I highly doubt she would try to fudge 20+ pounds--she knows the camera is going to add weight!

Off to watch my TIVO'd Oprah......

 

[Aimeedyan]

I doubt she's near 145 too - if she is, I am horribly fat and didn't know it. I've been busting my rear to get below 145 and thought I looked pretty good now - in a 8/10. I'm shorter than she is so 145 should appear thinner on her. So if she's thinner than me, I need to lose more than I thought!

I was proud of her - I think she's worked hard and looks beautiful - but I don't believe she is the weight they claimed her to be. I think 170-180 is more truthful AND more inspiring for other women. I'll be honest in that when they announced what weight she was at, and I realized I was about that size too, my heart sank.

Just being honest...

I was just coming on here to say I just saw her on one of the evening entertainment shows as they had the clip from Oprah and she is DEFINITELY wearing HOSE. That will make her legs look very smooth and together and slim. I don't think anyone has mentioned that until Disneyland_Mama did!!!

ETA: Don't get me wrong, I think she looks FABULOUS and has come a long way....but I have never worn HOSE to the beach (nor have I ever worn a bikini).

don't ya just love it when that happens. try a site that sells dancers clothing...brand names like Capezio, Danskin, Body Wrappers, etc.

 

[rascalmom]

I thought she looked great! I would love to look like that & I'm 10 years younger.

I think the 145 is pretty accurate - I am just a smidge shorter at 5"6 1/2. At 145 I would definitely still have curves - just the way I'm built... like Kirstie, I tend to look more curvy across the hips, but I don't have a "bootie" -so I think it is just distributed differently.

My thinnest in recent years was 160 - NO WAY would I have been seen on TV in a bikini! 145 - maybe (with a little help from the stripper hose ). I remember being told I was "hippy" by a rude male co-worker at about 125!

TV does add pounds. Standing next to Oprah, she looked smaller than she does on that pic by herself.

Good for her!!!
