Kirstie Alley, before

Two years ago, actress Kirstie Alley tipped the scales at more than 200 pounds. Kirstie, who was once a skinny Hollywood starlet, became a target for the paparazzi. Her private battle with weight was suddenly front-page news. "Honestly, I didn't know how fat I was," she said. "Thanks to the tabloids I went, 'Damn, girl, you're fat!'"

In November 2004, Kirstie opened up about her struggle with weight on The Oprah Show. The next day, she says she quit smoking and decided to change her life.

Determined to drop a few dress sizes, Kirstie became a spokesperson for the Jenny Craig weight loss program. After losing 33 pounds, Kirstie burned her "fat pants." Then, in November 2005, she shared her secret weight loss weapon with Oprah.

During her third appearance on The Oprah Show, Kirstie said something Oprah never thought she'd hear. "Maybe before summer I'll do a Jenny Craig bikini commercial," Kirstie said.

Now, after many months of hard work, Kirstie is ready to reveal her new body for the very first time!
