Kirstie Alley has just four years to live, an expert predicts. Locked in a deadly cycle of binge eating and yo-yo dieting, the former “Fat Actress” star has shaved years off her life span, according to doctors who have reviewed her medical history.
At 5-foot-8 and 250 pounds, the 58-year-old Emmy winner is “playing Russian roulette with her life,” warned Patrick Wanis, Ph.D., a human behavior expert from Miami Beach, Fla. “I added up the stressors in her life, and unless she adds more balance to it, Kirstie may only live to age 62.”
That frightening scenario is the conclusion of a longevity guide that he’s developed known as the “Life and Death Calculator.” The calculator determines a person’s estimated life expectancy by evaluating five principal body indicators.
“There are emotional, mental, physical, nutritional and spiritual stressors that can define how well we age,” explained Dr. Wanis, author of “Secrets to Losing Weight, Being Thin and Loving Your Body,” a set of three CDs. “We also look at relationships and how much support one gets from friends and family. Finally, we take lifestyle – where you live and the quality of life – into account.”
The former “Cheers” star – whose last serious romance ended in May 2000 when she called off her engagement to actor James Wilder – lost 75 pounds nearly three years ago as the poster girl for the Jenny Craig weight-loss program. But she’s regained some 90 pounds since then with a weakness for fat-laden Chinese takeout and other unhealthy foods.
And such a dramatic weight gain can dramatically shorten life span, according to a top anti-aging expert.
