Graham Elliot - Update

Hey Everyone!

Graham Elliot (one of the judges on Masterchef) had VSG done on July 16. He's already lost 56 pounds (not sure if that's all after the surgery). But, here are some pics:

I'm glad there are some positive articles out there about WLS! :)

Way to go Graham!

I'm glad to hear about his success, but People magazine is such a bunch of bloody hypocrites!

Whenever some celeb has WLS, they go bat crap crazy saluting the person and how well he or she is doing. They wrote about Chris Christie TWICE. But then they turn around and have their "LOST HALF THEIR WEIGHT!!!!!" issue when they make sure to crow about "NO SURGERY!! NO GIMMICKS!!"

I agree!

I have lost half my weight several times. I could have been on that cover if they caught me at the right time! HAHAHA 

I really hope those people kept the weight off, but I'd like to see a follow up on all of those cover models to see if they really did keep it off with "NO GIMMICKS". Hmmm

Looks like he has lost more than 56 pounds to me!  Good job!!

I thought the same thing: that it looked like he lost far more than 56 but - either way - he's doing a great job!

Bette B...I get a kick out of People's headline on the 'They Lost Half Their Body Weight...Learn Their Secrets.'  Their secrets are nothing more than celery, carrot sticks, baked chicken, oatmeal, yada, yada, yada...same ole diet crap.  No secrets there!!!

Or their "secrets" are Jenny Craig, WW, etc.

Thanks for the link.  I just love him as a judge and it is great to see him have so much success.  

He seems less douchey than the other two judges. Plus, he makes me giggle ever time I see him: he reminds me of Bob's Big Boy --- and I am jealous of his fabulous skin!
