Looks really good! Pretty impressive.

One thing I don't get, though--she said she went from a 12 to a "squishy" size 6. I'm a 12 and know what one looks like--she definitely looks closer to a 12/14 now than a 6. Why lie? People would be just as impressed at her going from an 18/20 to a 12/14.

Or if those are vanity sizes, where can I get them?

[MDPhDWife]

I was thinking the same thing! She does look great & her weight loss from week one of DWTS & the finale is definitely noticiable. I cannot buy that the cameras add that much of a weight difference.

I'm with you ST- I think she looks like a size 12 now.

[BonBon]

She's totally FOS. I say size 12. She looks great - why lie???

[scrub-jay]

Agreed.

Maybe one leg is a six. Two legs would make a 12.

She's too damn tall to be a size six without looking emaciated, anyway. She should know better than to lie to the American women- the majority of whom ARE size 12s.

Amen! I am a giant and would look like Skeletor if I ever fit into a six. People told me to gain weight when I was an 8.

[houseelf]

As always, I love you guys. You crack me up. We sound like a bunch of ol' hens sitting around...or like some weird gigantic old married couple consortium...

Carry on...

[v-girl]

I'd love to be a twelve. Or a six.

[Vanquisher]

I agree. Although, even though she has lost a lot of weight, I don't even think she's a size 12. 14 I might buy, maybe. I am 5'9", and I was a size 6 in high school. I weighed 135 pounds, and I was a ballroom dancer! People asked me if I was anorexic.

I think she looks a lot closer to what I look like NOW than then. I am a size 16 right now.

Here is a pic of me from my senior dance and one of me all ballroomed up in college (had to add it - I think I had gained about 15 pounds by then and was a size 8 or 10) and a recent one of Kirstie Alley :

Um, yeah - no frickin way. I am 5'2" and 125 pounds and I still wear some size 6 clothes. If she's a six I'm a triple zero.

Heidi, I love your HS and ballroom pictures!

[SoonerTexan]

Heidi, I love your HS and ballroom pictures!

Ditto! You look so much like Emmy Rossum in the 2nd pic

[DCJenn]

Heidi-

Those were awesome- I never knew you did ballroom dancing!

Just read an article about Paris Hilton admitting to being down to 105 lbs. and 5'8, but is now a "healthy" 115 lbs and still a size 0-2. Holy shit.

Yeah I don't get that at all. I'm 5'0'' and pre-pregnancy I was 115 lbs and I wore a 2-4. And designer clothes (which you know she's wearing) are sized with much different sizing so I wear like a 4-6 at least (I've tried on some higher end suits). There's no way someone that tall should be wearing a size 0-2.

[corn poffi]

I'm 5'6" and was down to a size 0 a few years ago. I looked amazing, but I was waaay unhealthy (pretty sure 90% of the calories I consumed that summer were from booze). Maybe that's how miss Hilton stays so trim...

Anyway, back to kirstie. No way on earth is she as small as she says she is. She's not fooling anybody.
