Peeking in at American Idol episode this week, I took a second to note Randy Jackson in all his full-faced glory and it hit me. I could not think of a single public figure who has managed to keep their weight down: Randy Jackson, Al Roker, Carnie Wilson. Starr Jones is one who doesn't seem to have added much to her frame...yet....but time will tell.
Then, after watching the final ER episode this week after a long ER-hiatus, I was sad to see that Yvette Freeman who played nurse Haleh Adams for the shows entire run had gained much of her weight back from when she lost it back in 2002. Then I recalled that she hadn't had surgery like the others, but went through a rigorious UCLA weight-loss program instead that she appears to have fallen off the wagon from.I guess whether you go under the knife or select a less invasive method, keeping the weight off for a long period of time remains a struggle for everyone. The question is whether you are willing to allow your body and your wallet to be surgically lightened as part of the process. Doing a "how big are they now?" Google search might motivate someone to not follow in the footsteps of those whose struggles happen under a spotlight.
