I Am Not a Fan...

Remember when you were in high school and you just could not understand that one subject? You would study hard and take all the practice exams, but you still could not get the hang of it. You eventually gave up all hope of passing it on your own and turned to drastic measures.....cheating. When all was said and done you breathed a sigh of relief to see that A+ but you knew deep down that you still didn't learn anything.

Well ladies and gentlemen, in my opinion, those who choose gastric bypass to lose weight are in the same boat. Yes of course you shed the weight, but only because less calories are consumed. As the weeks and months pass, the weight comes off and a new person has emerged. However, there is just one problem…. the weight slowly creeps back!!! To make matter worse, people usually look gross without their clothes on because of all that sagging skin.

In my opinion, only if you look like THIS:should you have this procedure done. But if you are not bound to your bed and do not have to wear 500 count sheets as an outfit, then surgery is not for you. If you can walk, you can lose it the old fashioned way, diet and exercise!!!

My poster children for Just Say No to Gastric Bypass are:
Star Jones
Carnie Wilson


And the Yo DAWG himself, Randy Jackson
All of them got super skinny, but as their life got back to normal they gained weight ...no not all of it but enough to bring them back to square one. So don’t cheat yourself people and spend thousands on invasive irreversible surgery. It’s all about the journey!

  3. LOL u are soo silly!!! I am looking into purchasing a 500 count sheet outfit myself, is it available in my size? But lemme tell ya, that pic of Star Jones' husband looking at her is priceless, and the caption is right on point. U are right tho, the quick way is definately the wrong way and it is cheating. NO APOLOGIES PEOPLE, MOVE YOUR AZZ!
