Actress Kirstie Alley is working towards a healthier way of life and she's tweeting about the "nightmare" of first stepping on the scale.

According to her Twitter handle, Kirstie has begun her new docu-series and weight loss plan, writing on Monday night, "OH MY GOD. ... I weighed in and it was a nightmare ... TOO MANY stones ... good news, I'VE BEGUN!!!"

On Tuesday morning, the actress responded to tweets regarding her weigh-in, saying, "The first weigh-in is always the worst. But, to make it EVEN worse, I HAD to weigh at NIGHT in front of a film crew!!! Lord help me."

Her next tweet read, "It was HUMBLING. ... I urge everyone to weigh in tonight and BEGIN this. 'Let's get our bodies the way we want em.' Game RIGHT NOW ... make it fun."

According to a rep for Kirstie's new A&E show, the new 30-minute program will feature the actress' weight-loss struggle, her search for love, mothering her two teenage children, producing a film, as well as the patenting of her inventions and care of her eight ringtail lemurs.
