Now that Kirstie Alley is slim and trim, Jenny Craig needed a new celebrity face for their campaigns. Stepping up to the plate is none other than Valerie Bertinelli. Though I may be dating myself a little, I remember watching her on the sitcom One Day at a Time, plus a huge number of made-for-TV movies. Valerie is maintianing weight-loss and video blogs on the Jenny website, so if you are interested you can hear about her progress, tips, and updates there. Apparently she has lost 10 of her planned 30 lbs. so far, due to a mix of Jenny food (natch) and 10,000 steps of walking a day. I have to commend Valerie for going public with this though. Weight loss is a very personal issue, and I can't imagine what it takes to have millions of people along for the ride.
On a side note, Valerie's ex-husband, Eddie Van Halen, has been getting a little makeover of his own after his stint in rehab, which, if you haven't seen, is pretty amazing too.

(or "not FAT fat, just a little fat" or whatever she says) So it's a wieght loss program but, christ, they've always had a sense of decency when they talk about weight loss... at least from the commercials i've seen up until now.
