Annie Wilson's lapband what happened?



Recommended Posts

Remember Annie Wilson of Heart? She was all over the place talking about this brand new procedure called the Lap band about 4 or 5 years ago? It was on Heart's web site with a link to the manuf. She interviewed about losing 60 or so pounds.

Whatever happened to her and her lapband? I don't hear about it anymore on her sites or see any info on it. Did she get it removed? Anybody know? I am kinda curious since she got me started thinking about this in the first place!

I did a search and found one article on it but it was from 2002... I was going to post it here but couldn't get it to come up. The article said 'Ann Wilson has lap band surgery" 2002 on the link but when I clicked it said "Site could not be found"

She got me started thinking about the band too. I followed her articles for awhile after she had it. She seemed to be doing good, then there wasn't anything about it anymore.

its sad that with all the weight loss they still have her hiding behind nancy. i was really hoping that she would come out of her sheel from the surgery and really be proud of herself. its not like they need to try and make a name for themselves. they are setup as it is.

I was telling my husband the same thing. She looks really good even if she's not to her desired weight. She's always been the prettiest one anyway, I don't care how much she weighs.

I read somewhere that she had it removed due to reflux problems.

I wonder how Brian Dennehey and Ali's daughter are doing wit it?

I might sound dumb... what is Heart and who is Annie Wilson. I saw the recent pictures, but what did she look like before?

well guys, I'll share the news I have about heart. I was told at a lap-band seminar by the instructors that she had it removed because she wanted to eat anything again. That life wasn't worth it if she couldn't enjoy her food. They said she had gained and incredible amount of wt back. :cry

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
