Blind Item #1
I love how this Academy Award winning actress keeps talking about "maintaining" her weight loss like she actually exercised all her weight off. Yes, she has to eat small portions, but she still won't come clean about the surgery.

ReplyDeleteGastric By-Pass?
To me weight loss takes time and less eating. (Counting Calories on a phone app)
ReplyDeleteWhen I get a hunger craving between meals, i drink a large glass of water.
She credited Weight Watchers,and of course she would be discredited if it was public. She still has to eat less, people like Carnie Wilson and Rosanne gained all the weight back after surgery.
ReplyDeleteGastric bypass. Another Star Jones. I ve done weight watchers and you have to stick with it. Please!
ReplyDeleteRoseanne is the smallest she's ever been. She's kept it off and looka great..she pists photos on Twitter, in between political rants, lol.
ReplyDeleteAs mentioned, weight loss surgery also requires a great deal of effort, not just in losing an initial amount of weight before surgery, but in staying on top of your eating after surgery, for the rest of your life. Anyone can eat their way back to obesity post-surgery.
I'm an old who has had WLS. It's not an easy fix and you have to eat right and exercise for the rest of your life. I suppose that goes for anyone that wants to lose weight. It's a lifestyle change.
ReplyDeletei've never been morbidly obese so maybe i'm not entitled to judge, but it seems to me that if one can lose 50 lbs.as requested by the doctor in order to qualify for surgery, why not just keep on with that eating plan/discipline indefinitely? it's basically the same number of calories as a post-surgery-diet, right? surgery's no guarantee of maintaining the loss, so why go through the agony, expense and risk?
ReplyDeleteIf it were that simple, no one would be obese, and insurance wouldn't cover weight loss surgery. It's not a justquestion of discipline for everyone - duh!
ReplyDeletegrooviemann, i didn't mean to be glib and i didn't express my full thought process. i know that food addiction is as powerful as any other - it's absolutely a physical dependence not caused by a lack of self-discipline. i don't think people can just be skinny if they want to be or i would be too. my point is that if a medical professional like dr. nowzardian on "my 600 lb. life" can get a patient to lose 50 lbs. in a month to prepare for surgery, wouldn't it be better to continue that program, preferably in a residential setting, away from enablers and triggers, like any other rehab? food addiction deserves the same support given to any other addiction.
ReplyDeleteI had WLS for reasons that are very complicated to explain, mostly concerning other related health conditions. If you really look at the research on long-term weight loss, only 5-8% of people who lose weight via diet/exercise are able to maintain the weight loss indefinitely. The other 92-95% frequently regain the same weight over and over again.
ReplyDeleteObese people who decide to get WLS have typically spent years if not decades dieting, and their bodies have developed a "set point" below which they have difficulty falling -- so they inevitably regain the weight. They may have significant co-morbidities (aka other serious health problems). The need for surgery is more complicated than lack of will power or self-discipline. Surgery resets the body's set point. I had a gastric sleeve (vertical sleeve gastrectomy), which not only reduces the size of the stomach but decreases or stops the production of ghrelin, a hormone that stimulates appetite. The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is a more complicated but also highly effective procedure.
WLS is a tool, and taking it seriously is very hard work. For two years, I've tracked virtually every piece of food that's gone in my mouth. I was on a 4 month diet prior to being certified for the procedure, and a 10-day all-liquid diet immediately before surgery. BTW, the number of calories you eat post-surgery is nowhere near as high as a typical dieter's daily calories. For a month or so after surgery, I struggled to eat 500 calories a day. By the next month, I could eat 800 cal/day. Now that I'm at my weight goal, I maintain at 1300/day and sometimes slightly more. Throughout, I've eaten a high protein diet, minimized carbs, drank a lot of water, and exercised regularly. I've lost close to 30% of my body weight and am in the "normal" weight range for my height. But as diligent as I've been, I strongly believe that my body would never have been able to lose that weight and keep it off without surgery.
Also after gastric sleeve you don't crave the same foods as you did before like bread cheeseburger and sweets it sort of reverses your brain in a way
ReplyDeletei didn't realize that, broken. that must make life easier for them then. glad to know.
