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

My doctor did her surgery. I keep forgetting to ask every time I go in. I'll try to remember (again) at my next fill!

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
