Thanks so much for posting this, Elisa! I forwarded the link on to some friends to read as well. A really good article! - Mike

Thanks for posting the article. A blind man could see she had gastric bypass surgery; however, I understand her fear surrounding why she didn't say anything. As she said in her article, she had to get out of it being about her.

I've never felt any shame about what I had done. When people come up to me and say, "How did you do it?" I tell them exactly what I did, without hesitation. The reaction is always positive. But, then again, my realm of well-wishers and critics does not include the entire country. Personally, I would see no problem in admitting it to the world, but I'm not in her shoes. Just like revealing the fact that we're gay, each of our actions are based on our own personal set of cir****tances. Her cir****tances dictated that she shouldn't reveal her secret until now. And, although she isn't my favorite personality, I respect her decision. Chris

Chris, Good for you and you are looking good. I tell as well because you never know who is listening and have been wondering about the surgery but too afraid to ask questions or may not know where to start.

Bout time she came out of the "closet" . See Star, it's not that bad and actually feels good to be living "reaL".
