Kirstie Alley Developing Her Own Weight-Loss Program

After 3 years of semi-faithful service and many digitally slimmed down commercials, Jenny Craig and Kirstie Alley parted ways. I sort of figured that they finally dumped Kirstie because they realized she just wasn’t losing the weight. And I sort of assumed Kirstie had stop trying to lose the weight and instead began embracing the fat. I was wrong, though. Kirstie Alley is now going to make her own system for weight-loss. Maybe she’ll be the new Jenny Craig? Kirstie told PEOPLE magazine:

Alley, 57, hopes to “develop and pilot my own weight-loss brand that I hope to launch in 2009,” she has announced in a statement.

Though she called her experience with Jenny Craig “extraordinary,” she says: “I want to create something new that will help millions of people end the seemingly never ending fatty-roller coaster ride.”

Good for her. It would be nice to see her slim down to her Cheers days.  I just hope she doesn’t end up pulling a Star Jones and then saying the credit goes to her new “Kirstie Alley plan” or something like that. I wonder what the Scientologists think of her always talking publicly about being fat? It seems like that might be something they wouldn’t care for too much.
