6.Star Jones
Currently a contestant in the Spring 2011 Celebrity Apprentice, Star admitted to her 2003 Laproscopic Gastric Bypass surgery in 2007, after having denied the surgery for several years. The surgery resulted in a loss of 160 pounds over three years. People considering weight loss surgery are often (justifiably) nervous about the stomach resection and intestinal rerouting involved -- aspects of the procedure that can lead to anemia, bone and hair loss, 'dumping syndrome', as well as the rare but potentially fatal complication of a stomach leak. A new procedure that results in comparable weight loss results, but fewer risks of complication (and only 2 nights vs 12 in the hospital) is gastric plication
