Gabourey Sidibe – Surgery

Gabourey Sidibe has tried different weight loss programs and diet plans. However, she admitted that all her efforts to trim down were entirely unsuccessful. The actress also mentioned that when she was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, she feared the consequences that she will have to deal with for the rest of her life. Gabourey realized that her health is her greatest wealth. That was when she decided to undergo laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

This procedure will trim your stomach in the hope of filling it with fewer amounts of food. After the surgery, she knew that she would have to back it up with exercise and diet. After a few months, she went from being 300 pounds to 150 pounds. Though admittedly, the actress thinks it is an expensive way to lose weight, she sees it as an excellent investment. Now, she maintains her weight by getting rid of all the junk food, eating healthy, and exercising.
