Country singer Wynonna Judd is getting in shape for 2009 - as the new face of a weight-loss product. The heavyweight star, 44, will front slimming pills Alli - and she's hoping her public weight battle will help others who are struggling with similar issues.

She says, "This is about me picking something that I know works for me. I can still plan (my work) and not feel like Alli is dictating my life as I have in the past on other programs. It fits into my schedule. I don't have diet goals. My goals are to live as happy and healthy as I can. People can see themselves in me and say, 'You know what? If she can do it, I can do it.'"

"I hope people will be inspired by the face that I've overcome a lot, I'm still here and it's a miracle."
