 san antonio, TX (08/14/06) Member Since: 08/19/06[Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 12:43 pm Carnie is really gorgeous even when she was bigger. I still think she looks fab-ola! and yeah I am not gunna say anything because I have been the same weight for few months now. its a constant struggle everyday for me as I am sure it is for her and countless others. I am happy though and yeah i could stand to lose about 15 more lbs but I am happy with what I have lost.

 Charlotte, NC Member Since: 04/24/06 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 12:47 pm I dont agree with the people trying to flame... I think its good for people to realize that post-op weight gain is a real possibility. Carnie was/is a "WLS posterchild" and decided to put herself out there so she is going to get more comments then a normal ole person such as me or you.
Its also good to note that Carnie talked on Oprah about suffering from 'transfer addiction' and having a problem with drinking. I would like for Carnie to come forward and talk about some issues she having currently because we can all learn from those further out. While she still may be 120lbs down from her highest as somebody notated... is she still gaining? Will it be 100lbs down from highest? Then 50lbs? Or has her body reached a 'happy medium' with its weight? Has she again transferred her addiction but this time back to eating?? Would be interesting to know! |

 York Haven, PA Member Since: 08/02/07 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 12:48 pm Shes human for goodness sake..She had surgery, she had a baby, she gained weight..She is still gorgeous, she is still thinner than what she was, and I give her kudos for being Carnie! Yeah she gained weight...I am sure there are allot of people that have gained weight, and because they are not in the "Celebrity Status" people don't see it...Give her props for how far she has come...

 Lancashire, United Kingdom Member Since: 10/20/06 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 12:53 pm Hm. I don't get why this thread is rude or a threat? Carnie Wilson gained weight. Yep. She sure did-you can see that in the picture.
I didn't see anything that said she is less than worthy, a bad person or even a failure. Was that an assumption? Interesting. I didn't assume that.
The odds are most will gain some of the weight back. I learned that in my pre-op courses and in the research I have done. It's a tool. We are human. It CAN happen. It often does.
Just something to see and think about.
I love Carnie too. I appreciate her honesty.
Peace,

 Member Since: 03/08/07 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 1:07 pm Yep. She's like the majority of us, welcome to reality - most post ops regain. I think the stat was at least 50% of excess weight lost.
Oh well.
She's human. I think she's adorable. :)    |

 Gainesville, GA Member Since: 09/23/07 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 1:10 pm Last Edit: 1/24/08 1:12 pm Wow, I like how some of you accuse me of being rude or insensitive. I was stating a fact and putting an image in all of your minds of what CAN happen. To me it doesnt even look like the skinny Carnie or the heavy Carnie. She still looks good...I wasnt saying she did not. Geez people this is just an observation dont rake me across the coals because I put a picture out here. Take it as an example if anything of what can happen if you slack off, and for women when you get pregnant. |

 KS Member Since: 10/20/07 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 1/24/08 1:27 pm Hi...
I saw her on some show...and she was talking about her alcoholism after weight loss surgery......I think she has a real problem with depression etc. I think she is a remarkable woman, and is so "out there" with her story. That takes real guts for anyone...especially a celebrity. I hope whatever weight she settles at....that she is happy. CRYSTAL  |

 | Post Date: 1/24/08 2:21 pm Who are those ****waffles next to the beautiful Carnie Wilson? I always laugh at those posts that say "100 pounds gone forever". Enjoy the honeymoon but pay attention to those who came before you, this gets a lot harder. Right old azzes?
