If you have Graphic Converter, you can do this easily.
tell application "GraphicConverter"
open the photo as alias
save window 1 as JPEG with wwwready without makeCopy
close window 1
end tell
Of course, you'll have to add code to select the file. "Without
makeCopy" will overwrite the original, so you may have to modify that
too. "With wwready" strips the resource fork.

have a script that makes two copies of each photo; one set is edited,
shrunken, and uploaded to my web site, while the other set is kept
unaltered as originals. For the original set, I'd like to delete the
preview image, as it takes up precious disk space. (Yes, it's only ~
50KB,
but add those kilobytes up and pretty soon you're talking real disk
space.)
