Kirstie Alley Loses Weight on 'DWTS'

Kirstie Alley has lost some weight already during rehearsals for the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars. Alley had said prior to starting that she hoped the stint on DWTS would encourage her to lose a significant amount of weight.

According to a report from FOXNews, the former Jenny Craig spokesperson is finding that dancing really pays off in the weight loss department. Although she isn't saying exactly how much she's actually lost so far, she has said she'd like to see a 30-pound weight loss by the end of the DWTS season.

Kirstie Alley is paired with DWTS pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy, and she has been tweeting about how much fun she's having while rehearsing with him. He is an exceptional dancer, and his rehearsals should make for some substantial weight loss for Kirstie. Plus, if she is having fun, that is half the battle when it comes to losing weight. No one wants to become bored with their means of exercise. If Kirstie Alley finds dancing to be intriguing and exciting, she will be that much more apt to succeed with her weight loss goals.

Congratulations to Kirstie Alley on her recent weight loss from rehearsals for Dancing with the Stars. Keep up the good work, and best of luck in the competition!

Man, she really looks awful when she gains weight, but she's looking good now! I know she has to work really hard to take it off, hope she keeps it off this time.

I can never quite get passed her brilliant smile to see the rest. But when I do, I see how unhappy she must feel. It's bad enough when any of us have failing health but to do it under the magnifying glass of the media must just be horrible.

I just wish her happiness, the good health will surely follow!

Permanent weight loss is nearly impossible given our body's desire to put weight back on and our unhealthy view of how to lose it. It's more than just numbers and requires a mind/body approach.

I'm so glad to see her having fun. When we enjoy life, everything we attempt works better!

I hope that she keeps dancing after the show in order to keep the weight off this time.
