Sharon Osbourne & Other Celebrities Losing Weight with Lapband Surgery

You are looking at a before and after picture of Sharon Osbourne, beautiful wife of Ozzy Osbourne. Sharon had a laparoscopic adjustable gastric band placed around her stomach in a procedure popularly known as lapband surgery.

I don't know how big Sharon Osbourne was when she had this procedure done. She seems like such a strong-willed woman I would have thought going on a diet would have worked for her.

There have been a few others of the entertainment industry celebrity sort who have publicly acknowledged having had the lapband procedure.

Ann Wilson, of Heart. Muhammad Ali's daughter, Khaliah Ali. Actor, Brian Dennehy. Guiding Light soap opera actress, Caitlin Van Zandt. Actor, Benedict Francis. Golfer, John Daly. And others.

I am currently not considering having the lapband procedure done. I had a Ruby Red Grapefruit, glass of skim milk and a stalk of celery for breakfast.
