Kerry Katona - After Surgery, Living on Junk

Posted on Nov 14th 2008 12:00PM by Martha Edwards

Filed Under: Celebs & Entertainment

If you live in North America, you may not have heard of Kerry Katona. In short, she's sort of the Britney Spears of Europe -- a pretty, young, troubled mother whose unfortunate choices and mental issues are plastered all over the tabloids for the public to snicker at and judge at will. Like Britney, Katona recently lost a fair amount of weight but unlike Britney (as far as we know, anyway ... ), she did it with surgery. Fair enough -- the girl has given birth to four children, so things are probably less, uh, firm than they used to be.

But recently, Katona raised some eyebrows when she was caught having junk food delivered to her house. Seriously? I don't have a problem with weight loss surgery except when it's simply a quick fix and the person has no intention of following by adopting healthy habits afterwards. Sounds like she's going to gain it back in no time -- what do you think?

What I think: no one has the right to judge people unless they have been in their shoes and have overcome it. I once was 100lbs over what I weigh now. I lost the weight the by diet and exercise alone, no surgery. It took me about 5 yrs to do it and I still continue to maintain my size 2 frame coming out of a size 24. Weight loss surgery is not for everyone (it wasn't for me). However, if a person has no other choice, I say go for it. You can never judge a person until you know what it feels like to live in that body and feel like you have no way out. I had a lot of time, dedication and determination to see my "weigh" out. Some people just dont have that type of strength. So, if you have been thin (not obese) all your life, you shouldn't comment like it is so easy to do. What people don't understand is that there are many dynamics to being over weight: psychological, biological, environmental or spiritual. If you judge without knowing the dynamics, you make yourself look very immature and arrogant. You try losing 100lbs by diet and exercise alone and understand why it is not as easy as you make it sound.
