VIDEO: Carrie Fisher’s Amazing Weight Loss, Fifty Pounds Later!
It’s definitely ‘putting yourself out there’ to go into show business and risk failure. To tell the world you want to lose weight on a national TV commercial is REALLY putting yourself out there and risking failure.
Carrie Fisher has NOT FAILED. The actress/writer/comedienne has succeeded in losing fifty pounds with the Jenny Craig weight lost program, of which she is a paid spokesperson.
But as we all know, being a paid spokesperson means very little if you don’t lose the weight, and Fisher really pulled it off. On the TODAY show, she opened up about her former, heavier self, and her aspirations for the future.
“I exhausted the alphabet on bra sizes…I did not know they had the bra size that I ended up as. It must have been an end table.”
When Curry asked if this was enough for her, or whether Fisher wanted to lose additional pounds, she said she thought this may be it, but hinted at one last goal… donning the infamous bikini she wore in Star Wars:
“I wanna get back in the metal bikini and just walk around the house… answer the doorbell, you know…”
Fisher is continuing to tour with her one woman stage show, ‘Wishful Drinking”… Her HBO special of the same show is nominatedf for two Emmy’s.
