British TV Shock



Recommended Posts

"Celebrity Fit Club", a UK TV show, similar to the American "Biggest Loser" had a shock revelation the other night...

A Well-known Brittish TV presenter called Anne Diamond had a lapband fitted prior to becoming a contestant on the program(!). This was exposed on Monday nights episode, and she may be expelled from the show.

Such a shocking revelation was this, that all the British tabloids gave it front-page news the next day, and the lapband is now perceived as the new "must have" surgery chosen by celebrities everywhere.

I had mine done months ago (as my diminishing waistline will testify), so it's nice to be ahead of the game for once.

All us bandsters are now setting a trend other will follow! ;)

P.S. I wish Anne Diamond all the best, and I'm sure she'll see results soon enough, with or without a dodgy reality TV show.

How odd, I only know two Celebs that have the band.

Anne Diamond (didn't know before today mind you) and Ann Wilson (Lead singer of the band Heart).

Both Ann(e)s. Stupid trivia, but... shrug.

Any other Celebs who the world know's to be bandsters?

Sharon Osbourne ... possibly a poor bandster role model since she's mostly used it as a tool to binge & purge, but a bandster none the less.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
