You go, girl! Seriously, Kirstie Alley has been through it all, and now she's showing the world what determination looks like. The 66-year-old actress has lost an incredible 50 pounds, and she’s not shy about sharing her amazing transformation with everyone!
How Did Kirstie Alley Do It?
In a recent interview, Kirstie opened up about the key to her success. She shared that avoiding her three trigger foods—cookies, linguini, and cheese—has been crucial to staying in shape. "I’m much more disciplined now than I ever was before," the former Cheers star told People. Kirstie’s journey hasn’t been easy, but her commitment to change is truly inspiring. She’s proving that it’s never too late to take control of your life and health.
The Struggles of the Past
Let’s rewind a bit. Kirstie has been open about her weight loss struggles over the years. Back in April 2014, she rejoined Jenny Craig to get her weight loss back on track. "I was sick of it, and I knew that other people were sick of it too," she told Closer Weekly. It’s hard to imagine anyone being tired of Kirstie’s charm, but her honesty about her journey is what makes her so relatable and inspiring.

Reflections on Her Transformation
Kirstie shared that she used to avoid looking at herself in the mirror. "I like to catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and say, ‘Wow, you still look cool.’ That wasn’t happening. I really didn’t look cool or sexy or anything—I thought I just looked fat," she admitted. "I was setting myself up to fail. I would think, ‘I’m going to lose this weight and then I can eat anything I want.’ It was a recipe for disaster."

Living Life to the Fullest
"I’m much more alive today. I’m more outgoing and can be more daring! I’ve been approaching people and telling them I want to work with them. I’m active, I’m in life again, I’m in motion!" Kirstie explained. It’s clear that her newfound confidence is not just about the numbers on the scale—it’s about how she feels and how she’s embracing life.
When it comes to her diet, Kirstie has found a balance that works for her. "I now only eat one Jenny Craig meal per day, and the rest of my meals and snacks are on my own. But I also have my Jenny Craig consultant, so if I feel like I’m going off track, I just call her and she gives me some tips and a pep talk," she told People.

The Power of Knowledge
"I can have anything I want [to eat], I’m just counting the calories. I know how many calories 6 oz. of tenderloin is. I know that pasta is 200 calories in a cup," she said. "So as long as I keep steady that way, and count it up, it’s easy to count because I know how many calories those foods that I really love are." Kirstie’s approach shows that knowledge truly is power when it comes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Staying Fit and Active
Kirstie has also increased her workout sessions to stay fit. "I started becoming a lot more physical. It depends on the weather and where I am, but I have different workouts I’ll do. If I’m in Florida or Kansas where it’s flat, I’ll get on my bike and ride to my friends’ houses," she said. "If I’m in a place that’s cold, I don’t like gyms, but I’ll go to dance classes. I also like yoga. I try to do that three times a week—pick one of those and do that."
One thing is for sure, Kirstie looks absolutely fabulous, and her journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and self-love.
