What the hell happened to Kes?

[Takeru]

Not really, she look perfectly fine to me.

No, she's overweight in these pictures and it worries me if people consider that "perfectly fine", it shows that we as a society are getting fatter and fatter and many people start to see being overweight as the norm. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't call her enormous, but she's far from "perfectly" fine, more like "slightly overweight but still fine if she doesn't gain more weight" fine.

That said, the stick figures on TV (Teri Hatcher for example) don't look perfectly fine either.

^There are overweight people who are still healthier than some thin people. I know someone who isn't very active, very overweight and doesn't really eat healthy. But the doctor gave him a pefect bill of health.

As someone whose weight has gone up and down like a fiidler's elbow over the years, I can totally relate. She's only human. Leave her alone.

Hear, hear!!!

People blessed with (un)naturally fast metabolisms have no idea what it's like to look at a piece of cake and suddenly find you're a kilo heavier. That being said, I'd say Lien's weight might also be tied to her previous problems with drug dependency and the health issues that raises.

I wish her future good health and happiness as she always seemed so very lovely.

she is enormous and to think she was so thin during the show!

Same here. I like the squishy-shaped women so I see nothing wrong. Not everyone thinks wafer-thin is attractive.

Whats interesting here is the timing, 'Fury' came out in 2000 and she looks fine (well in the scenes where she plays here season 2 self) , if the above picture was from the 35th aniversary then that puts it at 2001. So a year or or year and half she changed that much?

Who is it? Is it the janitor?

Man people are so quick to judge. Leave the poor woman alone.

 

[VulcanGuy]

[Thurisaz]

She still has the sexiest voice in the galaxy.

I thought that was Don Johnson for a minute.

Even *I* can agree with that!

Las Vegas Con, 2008

I think she looks beautiful, healthy and very happy.

Huh?

Which one is she?

 

[Red Ranger]

I'm sure if we saw what VulcanGuy looked like, we'd find him wanting!

And frankly, I like Jennifer Lien with more meat on her bones! I'd hit that! She has gorgeous dimples and beautiful eyes. And she still has that sexy, husky voice.

Holy shit! From this

to this

 

[The Borg Queen]

She looks completely different!

I recognise her from the pics in the 1st post, but I don't recognise her in that one above.

I think the Robert Beltran pic is a bit more shocking. It's not just the weight but how grey he got! He looks like a cross between Marlon Brando (later years) and Don Johnson! Whoa! -- RR

hey man, no need to get personal. we're all trek fans here.

Right, that weight isn't only unattractive, but it's also very unhealthy. I agree, it is very worrying about the state of affairs regarding health in the USA.

I might make a pop song about the joys of being obese and put it on the radio. It would be number 1 for 6 weeks!
