shelbyschroepfer 35 Posted July 20, 2013 Just learned from another post that one of my BIGGEST HEROS Graham Elliot has had the sleeve surgery. I am ECSTATIC. He is everything I hope to be in life and to learn that he's having the same struggles as me, is so humbling. He's going to continue his career, WITH the sleeve. Do you think he'll NEVER had French fries again? Please he's from chi town, he'll enjoy in MODERATION!!!!!! God this is a sign that maybe I can make it. Good luck to Graham.

He's a judge on master chef and he owns a few restaurant and he's been one of the top rates youngest chefs for years!

DeezJeanz 1,065 Posted July 20, 2013 Ty 4 posting this!! Idk who he was either but had decided to start watching m.c. bc of a Wendy Williams show that i watched today. So whenever I read this post i was so excited, I even went nd read it to my husband and my daughter because it made me excited to see that a real life celebrity, not master chef, have the same struggles as we normal people do, and yes he has to go threw the same things we have to do in order to get approved for the surgery, as well as, to get prepared for the surgery. It was such a huge inspiration to read his story thank you so much for posting. I'm a presleeve hoop jumper:/ gl you all:) 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cindymg 629 Posted July 21, 2013 Now if we could just get Chris Christie ( Gov of New Jersey) to do a band to sleeve revision! Maybe then people would stop asking me if I had a lapband! Geez! That's all people seem to know about WLS! Maybe Elliott will join our group?! 1 zenandnow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cejiogu 182 Posted July 21, 2013 I was so happy to see that he got it. I love masterchef. But I have been worried about him. He is only 36 years old and has 3 boys under the age of 8. The last is less then a year old. I would not like to see him die before his time. He had the sleeve because he can still work. The bypass I guess can change his taste in some way. His other judges Gordon and Joe where 100% behind him too. I also saw him on top chef. How like you said if we could get Chris Christie to do it we may have the next president a sleever!

MIJourney 490 Posted July 21, 2013 Cool! Will be fun to watch the next season of Master Chef to see his transformation! Was thinking he should do something when he was walking out of the ocean during the surfer food challenge a few weeks ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
