Weight Loss and Celebrities

In this ABC news report celebrities lose weight through endorsement deals and reinvent their public persona and bank balance at the same time. Celebrities such as Jennifer Hudson, Jessica Simpson, Kirsty Alley, Valerie Burtonelli, Janet Jackson, Dan Marino, Jason Alexander (Seinfeld), Charles Berkley and others are reportedly making on average $33,000 dollars per pound lost! However, yo-yo dieting is often not sustainable, with many celebrities such as Kirsty Alley losing and gaining weight in an extreme way. In addition, for many overweight people diet and exercise alone is not enough and further interventions is required. Carnie Wilson for example has opted for weight loss surgery, having a lap-band procedure to help her lose gained weight.
