Jessica Simpson Lap Band Surgery?



Recommended Posts

i wonder if this is true: (but let me say i dont agree with the quick fix comment)

The treadmill is the only way! Jessica Simpson 'sought quick fix with lap band surgery... but was rejected TWICE'

We all know rolling out of bed to run up that hill or row on the exercise machine is no fun at all.

So it seems Jessica Simpson may have been in search of a quick fix.

The new mother, who is in a desperate bid to regain her pre-pregnancy body, is believed to have looked into weight loss surgery - but was turned down by doctors.

Getting there! Jessica Simpson, pictured with fiancé and former NFL player Eric Johnson, is slimming back to her pre-pregnancy body thanks to a $4m Weight Watchers deal

A source said: 'After her daughter, Jessica felt there was no way she could lose the weight on her own as she has struggled so much in the past and her post partum weight seemed to be growing.'

The insider told Radar Online: 'So like a true Hollywood girl, she sought out a quick surgical fix - lap band surgery.'

However, while the new parents are elated to have their new addition to the family, Jessica is now left struggling to rid herself of the excess 70-80lbs she gained while pregnant.The 32-year-old welcomed daughter Maxwell into the world on May 1, her first child with fiancé and former NFL player Eric Johnson.

Speaking to USA Today, Jessica admitted: 'I let myself indulge in everything I wanted because it was the first time I was ever pregnant, and I wanted to enjoy it.

'I wanted to be happy and eat what I wanted... I didn't realise it didn't all come off with the baby.'

She also Enlightened fans as to where her weaknesses lay, telling Extra: 'I had buttered Pop Tarts... I'm eating a lot of stuff that I ate in my childhood. Kraft Mac n' cheese, Pop Tarts, Cap'n Crunch. Everything's filled with sugar.'

Jessica has now decided to embark on a healthy approach to weight loss; altering her diet, exercising frequently, and of course a slight motivational push in the guise of a $4m Weight Watchers campaign.

After two different doctors advised her against going under the knife, Jessica enlisted the help of celebrity trainer Harley Pasternak.

In her new commercial for Weight Watchers, she reveals: 'There is a lot of pressure to lose weight but I’m not a supermodel. I’m just Jessica trying to eat real food in the real world.'

I just don't understand how society thinks that lap band, or ANY weight loss surgery, is a quick fix. I've worked harder the past few months to lose weight than I ever did before.

In years past, with diets, if I was having a "woes-me" day and wanted to binge on pizza, I could. The next day, I could get back on track with my diet. Post-band, there's no way I could scarf down 5 pieces of pizza. I had three bites of plain cheese pizza a week ago and the crust was just not working for me. I had a horrible stuck episode. I have had to work my butt off to find 1) a new way to satisfy cravings in a healthy way, and 2) find a new outlet for my stress that would drive me to eat like that. Oh yeah, not to mention, lose weight!

Lap band is by no means a quick fix to anything.

All that being said, I love my band :)

Ppl who say it's a quick fix have not done their research. Just goes to show, you can't believe everything you read.

If a doctor can be paid to make Joan rivers look like she does (a crime) then Jessica can pay to have a lap band and dont need a doctors permission I think this is false.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
