Hilary Duff – Spotted in Her Pajamas

Hilary Duff   Spotted in Her Pajamas | hilary duff

Good morning, Hilary!

Hilary definitely gained some weight in the past months, she’s probably around her highest weight, but she appears to be comfortable with her body… otherwise she wouldn’t wear tight bandage dresses that reveal her figure or super comfortable (maybe too comfortable?) clothes, like on this occasion.

One more picture after the jump!

Kirstie Alley: ‘Yes, I Gained 83 Pounds’

Kirstie Alley: Yes, I Gained 83 Pounds | kirstie alley general celebrity weight measurements celebrity quotes

People Magazine runs the story about Kirstie’s recent weight gain and you can also check a video of Kirstie on Oprah (after the jump), explaining why this happened & revealing her future plans. Here’s what People says:

When Kirstie Alley stepped on the scale for the first time in 15 months, it wasn’t pretty. “I started screaming,” recalls Alley, sipping homemade fruit-infused water in her Hollywood kitchen. “It said 228 lbs., which is my highest weight ever. I was so much more disgusting than I thought!”

But looking back, Alley, 58, is hardly shocked. During her three-year stint as a Jenny Craig spokeswoman, she famously trimmed down to 145 lbs. after losing and keeping off 75 lbs. But since parting ways with company in 2007, she had not worked out and banished her gym equipment to the garage. As for her diet, her small, low-calorie portions gave way to Chinese takeout and pasta drenched with butter. “I fell off the horse,” says the 5’8″ star.

Today, Alley says she is primed to hire a trainer, toss the butter and sign up for a triathlon in order to whittle her “schlumpy” figure back down to a bikini-ready 140 lbs. “I’m going to have to work harder than last time,” she says, but “I’m way excited.” In a candid interview, Alley sat down with PEOPLE’s Elizabeth Leonard to talk about how she piled on the pounds – and how she plans to get her body, confidence and – yes! –even her groove back.

Okay, how did this happen?
It started with New Year’s [2008], right after leaving Jenny Craig. When you’re a spokesperson for Jenny Craig, there’s responsibility. You have a person every week standing over you when you get on the scale, and I did it naked because those panties could weigh 30 lbs.! It was amazingly successful. But the first nail in the coffin was that I didn’t have to weigh in. I just sort of went wild.

Did you go right back to indulging in cakes and pies the way you did the first time you let yourself go?
It wasn’t the exact same M.O. My food demons are Chinese food, sugar, butter. A lot of butter. If I’m at the movies, usually I eat popcorn without butter, but I’d say, “I’m at the movies, so who cares?” And toast with butter. Or let’s say I had two cups of pasta and six tablespoons of butter on it. There was a lot of butter going on.

What else would you eat?
For seven months I was a vegetarian, and I can’t tell you how much weight I gained being a vegetarian! A vegetarian would probably be eating vegetables. But to me being a vegetarian meant I’m going to eat enchiladas with no meat, and I’m going to eat lots of bread, lots of carbs.

What weight do you want to get down to?
I have to be below 140 to really look good. I have to work my legs like crazy. Actually, do you want my real goal? My real goal’s always too low. I love the way I look at, like, 128. One time on Cheers, I weighed about 148 lbs., and they told me to lose, like, 20 lbs. Now, I’m 5’8″, so at 148 lbs., I wasn’t fat. But they’re saying, “You know, you need to lose 20 lbs.” So what does that put me at? 128. That’s where I keep getting this number.

Star Jones Opens Up About Weight Loss

Star Jones Opens Up About Weight Loss | general

“I’m still 300 lbs. in my head some days,” the lawyer and TV personality, 47, tells Oprah Winfrey on Wednesday’s Oprah.

Pressed by Winfrey about what scared her, Jones responds, “Disappointing people. I was ashamed … That’s the word that is actually the real word. I was ashamed that I couldn’t control my weight, that I was an addict for all practical purposes, that I had never stuck to a real diet, that I’d never stuck to a real exercise program.”

Jones says she was confronted by her own doctor and told, “If you don’t make changes, you will die.” Her reaction? “I had no choice,” she admits. “When you hear people say, ‘Oh, you took the easy way out,’ I would have longed for an easy way. It was not an easy way.”

She calls gastric-bypass surgery “the hardest struggle of my whole entire life, and I still struggle.”

She says, “I’m so sorry that I placed a burden on my colleagues. I never asked them to lie and don’t know where the Pilates and portion control” – an explanation for her dramatic weight-loss that circulated at the time – “came from. I think a tabloid actually wrote that.”

So this is a 2 in 1 post:

* First, we’ve got the girls in some plastic outfits – and while the clothes might look good on Nadine and on Kimberly, they surely don’t look good on Cheryl above… just weird (plus, she looks uncomfortable).

* Secondly, we’ve got a flashback: Girls Aloud a few years back, when Nadine, Cheryl and even Nicola were less skinny. Around that time, Cheryl was 133 lbs at 5’3” and wore size 29 jeans.
