Chris S. - L.I. 0 Posted December 13, 2006 Just saw on TV that tomorrow Dr. Phil will have Sharon Osborne on talking about the removal of her Lap Band. This should be interesting. I wonder if we will find out the real reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InTheCityGirl 0 Posted December 13, 2006 Just saw the same thing. Maybe they'll actually be clear about the difference between the band and gastric bypass, something they were completely unable to do on Good Morning America and the other shows where she spoke for 3 minutes total.

juliegeraci 7 Posted December 13, 2006 I thought she had gastric bypass? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted December 13, 2006 I must be mistaken. I just saw the commericial and it definitely said gastric banding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YeeHaw 0 Posted December 13, 2006 I did not know she even had one? Why, she was never that big? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted December 13, 2006 She was big years ago. She definitely needed some intervention then but I don't know how much weight she actually lost up until now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beachgirl 2 Posted December 13, 2006 Yeah according to People she had the banding. I don't think they know how to explain the differences between the band and bypass. They need to do a little bit more investigation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted December 13, 2006 That makes sense. I could swear she had bipass but when I heard the commercial it definitely said gastric "banding". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonya66 13 Posted December 13, 2006 Okay, I'm at work and wont get to see Dr. Phil, you guys have to fill me in on what was discussed..........somebody, please! Was it today? Or tomorrow she is supposed to be on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted December 13, 2006 definitely tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aaamom 0 Posted December 14, 2006 It's definitely THE BAND and it's definitely tomorrow I cant wait to hear why she is having it removed To be continued..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodys 0 Posted December 14, 2006 Apparently she wants to have the band removed but is fearing what will happen with her weight if she does. Don't know why she wants the band removed though, should find out tomorrow. Carol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piercedqt78 658 Posted December 14, 2006 Dr. Phil is very anti-weight loss surgery, be prepared for the band to get a bashing...I think tomorrow will be a see, this is why I say it is bad, from Dr. Phil. Is he really even a doctor? ~Mandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarySue33 0 Posted December 14, 2006 I saw her on either Letterman or Leno about a month ago promoting her new book (the same thing she will probably be doing on Dr. Phil tomorrow). At the time, she definitely said it was a band and that she lost about 125# with the band. She said she was having it removed because she had 'become too clever for it' and could find ways to eat around it. I'm still not sure why she wants it removed, though. It did not sound like she was having any trouble with it -- just that she wanted to give it a try without it. Of course, she has also had about a quarter of a million dollars worth of plastic surgery, if I remember correctly. Maybe she is just addicted to change?
