 <title>Kirstie Alley Inks Talk Show Deal With Oprah</title>
 <link>http://www.observer.com/2008/kirstie-alley-inks-talk-show-deal-oprah</link>
 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><p>Kirstie Alley is trading Jenny for Oprah. Ms. Alley has inked a TV development deal with Oprah's Harpo Productions, with a daily talk show under consideration, according to Variety. The deal comes after a series of high-profile appearances on Oprah's show (remember when she <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbMfr_QO7Sw">wore a bikini</a> after reaching her goal weight with Jenny Craig?). Ms. Alley told Variety that she's hoping to come up with &quot;something totally fresh&quot; with Harpo. &quot;I'm very open with what I've been through in my own personal life, and nothing -- I mean nothing -- is off-limits for me to talk about,&quot; she said. &quot;Nothing shocks me.&quot;</p>]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><strong>ERICA:</strong>  "Did you just eat three bowls of fruit loops for dinner?"  asked Greg.

<p>"Uhm, I guess," I say.</p>

"What the heck is going on with you?"

<p>That is the $64,000 question folks.  In about a month's time I have gone from fairly motivated exercise and diet wise to completely, totally full-on binge crazy.  I don't mean binge as in binge and purge...that I can't handle.  I just mean cupcakes, BLT's, french fries, big soft street pretzels, sugary cereals, bagels with lox...ok, I'll stop now.  Let's just say its bad...<em>very</em> bad. <span class='read-more'><a href="http://www.observer.com/node/32196">&nbsp;read&nbsp;more&nbsp;&raquo;</a></span></p>

I have three months left until my wedding and 20 pounds to lose.  I know, I know...I hear the chorus of "that might be a bit too lofty a goal, Erica."  "You should really focus on one to two pounds a week...your wedding is just one day and you really want to set your sights on getting healthy for life," I imagine all of the health freak know-it-alls saying.  Right...yeah...thanks, everyone.
