Kirstie Alley has announced another partnership with Jenny Craig. She made the announcement on NBC’s Today Show on Monday, telling Matt Lauer she realized she needed to lose weight while watching herself on her sitcom Kirstie.
Alley worked with the weight loss company from 2004 to 2007, when she was their spokeswoman and lost 75 pounds while following the system. She then kept that weight off for about four years but has since gained some weight again.
“I was like, you look OK on the street, but you don't look [OK] on TV, not so much,” she said, Today.com reports. “I have a goal to lose 30 pounds. Thirty pounds is a lot.”
Alley blames her weight gain on men issues and the holiday season, which she considers to be from Halloween to Valentine’s Day.
She joked on the show, “Listen, men, stop upsetting your women. You make them fat.”
E! Online reports Jenny Craig CEO Monty Sharma has said of their revived partnership, “We welcomed her with open arms."
