I Wonder What Celebrities Are Sleeved?!?



Recommended Posts

What about Oprah? Why does she choose to remain fat when she can get healthy and look good again.

That one just stumps me.

Kirstie Alley? I think she had WLS.

I believe Oprah has come to terms with her size and is comfortable in her lifestyle. She really enjoys food and also works out daily. Most of these I dropped a ton of weight Fast celebrities most likely had wls especially the ones with absolutely NO muscle tone whatesoever! How do you drop 60-80lbs like that and no flab or anything~

Yeah I think Oprah is too rich to care. She was already under a microscope all of those other times she dropped weight using a fad diet. I think she is happy and comfortable in her body now.

I'm kinda torn on this one. Most actors & actresses are very motivated & diciplined people. They gain & lose weight for movie rolls on a regular basis. Look at Sylvester Stallone in Copland or Uma Thurman in the movie Monster. These are two examples of 2 normally very healthy people that gained significant weight quickly' date=' the removed it quickly afterward.

One of the major differences here is not only are they diciplined, but they have the means to hire a professional trainer/dietician/chef full time. Though I believe that many in Hollywood have used WLS to trim themselves, I don't believe it's as rampant as we would like to believe.[/quote']

You are probably right on this. If i had a personal cook and a personal trainer as my body guard and food nazi, i probably wouldn't need WLS. :(

I just read an article about a celebrity chef named Art Smith who dropped a "startling 120 pounds thanks to Portion Control and rigorous workouts" in just two years. Uh huh. He ate a lot of salad too, apparently, which he claims is part of his success.

Whether he had WLS or not, look at his before and after pics...he must have had some plastic surgery to remove excess skin or something.

I totally agree on Seth Rogan, Johan Hill, and Jennifer Hudson. I was pretty floored by how fast those three dropped weight. Glad I was not the only one thinking it! HA! :lol:

This thread is my guilty pleasure. I'm terrible, I know. But honestly, I secretly hope others whisper the same stuff about me someday very soon!

There is the single incision spider version of the sleeve where they go in through the belly button... its possible all these celebs when that route.

Not to mention if it's on tv, any scars have been covered w/makeup.

I agree.

I always worked on myself and felt happy around people but at my heaviest wasn't really comfortable. I don't think she feels good at this weight. In the past when she would lose weight (prob. like most of us) she would talk about how good it was for her. So yes she's got a lot of it "together" but I still think she wants to change her weight-- based on her past behavior.

Jennifer Hudson did Weight Watchers.

She did Weight Watchers commercials. That doesn't preclude the possibility that she had WLS.

I think contractually, it would preclude her from being the spokesperson though.

      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.
