What the hell happened to Kes?

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

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!

Go for it, bro, you'll make a mint!

Seriously, one of the reasons I chime in is there is such a double-standard when it comes to weight in America. Women are attacked much more viciously for being overweight than men are.

I do know what it's like being the victim of fat prejudice, because I was pretty fat as a youngster in grade school, where kids can be cruel. I learned to defend myself precisely because of that. I eventually lost the weight and for most of my adult life, I've been close to the weight for my height, 5'8", between 160-180 lbs.

Also, it's true we have an obesity epidemic, but people all don't correspond to the conservative weight tables. As someone above pointed out, some heavy people are healthier than some thin people.

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
Rewatch the first season of Voyager. He was pretty grey from the start, and then he started dying his hair black. The long hair isn't doing him any favors, though.

I honestly can't tell if he's put on that much weight, or if it's just the cut of the shirt.

Maybe, but it's not like famous men can gain a lot of weight and just skate by. I seem to recall a big tabloid headline from a few years ago that said "William FATner!"
 
^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.


Sounds a bit like me....fit in spite of fat. I'm 240lbs at 6 foot...should be 210 or so as I lift heavy things thrice weekly. But it would be optimal to be leaner.
 
Holy shit! From this

Keep in mind the beauty of airbrushing and make-up artists. I was looking at the other pics associated with the original post link and none of those guys look really all that great. Even Roxanne Dawson looked a little off. This pic is much more flattering I think.

Las Vegas Con, 2008

I think she looks beautiful, healthy and very happy.

Nice Collection of pics there, I think Michelle forbes looks dam sexy.


Yes, I stumbled on them while googling updated photos of Kes. Whoever this fangal is, she has quite the collection going on. I was laughing at the one with Michelle Forbes next to her...she towers over her!

EDA: I especially liked the ones with Leonard Nimoy and Michael Hogan. They were sweet.

I have to say, I came into this thread thinking that someone hadn't watched all of VOY and was shocked about what was happening with the character...

But wonderful pictures, esp. the one with Majel. :)
