Alley is currently working with her Jenny Craig consultants to lose weight and learn how to eat and live healthier. She will star in the company's advertising campaign featuring television commercials that begin airing January 10, 2005.

I'm "thrilled", only because photos of her ugly butt at the grocery store checkout line are really icky.

Geeze! Women will do / believe anything to avoid the reality of weight loss.

EAT LESS, EXCERSISE MORE.

Do you ever wonder why you see fat people in aerobics / step / insert latest exercise fad here - but you never see fat runners?

If you want to be thin, run.

I told my wife I have the 100% foolproof way to drop extra pounds: take up marathoning.

"...Jenny Craig has offered Alley and ten of her closest friends the opportunity to participate...."

Judging by those tabloid images in the checkout, Kirstie Alley is the equivalent of herself and ten of her closest friends now.

A few weeks of slavery in L. Ron's Sea Org should take the weight off quickly...

but you never see fat runners

No, but I usually see alot of male runners in particular that look anorexic. Their bodies resemble that of prepubescent boys.

She is such a BAG, but the other night watching her in the
interview with that guy I laughed in spite of myself. I know she is a liberal floozey with a lot of ditzy, skitzy ideas, but she is funny when she isn't being vulgar.

She found a way to bump start her failing career. Get fat (on purpose), get your name in the media, sign with a major weight loss corp. & get a healthy paycheck and commercial deal, lose the weight and get even more dedia attention.

Pretty smart if it works. Of course, she'll have to actually succeed at the weight loss thing...

That depends on the runner.

Sprinters - not anorexic
Long distance - too thin, but their chosen sport requires a light weight build.

But that's beside the point, you're talking about people who run 50+ miles a week. To gain most of the benefits of running, you run as little as 15 miles a week

Most fat people really don't want to make the effort to lose weight. If they did, they would run.
