After learning how to control her appetite and undergoing a life-changing transformation, Kirstie Alley has finally reached her ideal weight and recently revealed how she worked hard to attain her goal. The 55-year-old has simply got it going on now!

The "Cheers" star - who went on a strict diet last year and this week appeared on Oprah wearing just a bikini now that she has lost 75 pounds - revealed how bad her binges had become when she hit 220 pounds. The actress also confessed to gorging herself on 8,000 calories a day when she was at her fattest.

Among the calorific treats the "Fat Actress" star indulged in on a daily basis were a steak, half a loaf of French bread, six cups of pasta, 20 sugar-free Popsicles, potato chips, two burritos and a dozen grape sodas,

She said, "I had a holiday mentality. I ate with wild abandon. Six, seven, eight thousand calories a day. And then I thought I'm old, I'm fat. What am I worth?"

Last year, Kirstie, who is 5ft 8ins became a spokeswoman for Jenny Craig and vowed to get her figure back in time to appear on Oprah in her bikini within a year. She achieved her goal this week.

The "Look Who's Talking" actress said, "I feel happy with the way I look and feel. For me, that's the greatest thing that's happened. The bikini thing is neither here nor there, other than the fact, you know, I am 55 years old. So I thought - come on, we are all good enough. And we look good enough. And we are not our bodies."

Well, that is good to hear that she got a hold on everything. She did look good before.
