REX RYAN – 100 LBS: GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY

The former head coach of the Jets seems to love controversy. Have you ever watched his rather vulgar press meets or those foot fetish videos? Anyway, moving on, he earned the attention of the spotlight in 2012 thanks to his waistline instead of that big mouth on him. Rex was once as heavy as 348 lbs but getting a Lap-Band procedure caused him to lose 100 lbs. Rex Ryan later admitted that he already got a gastric sleeve surgery in 2010. He explained to Men’s Health that he also tried to follow a lot of diet plans in the past, but none of them seemed to work for him.

ADAM GOLDSTEIN – 150 LBS: WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY

You probably know Adam Goldstein as DJ AM. It was not that long ago when he weighed about 240 lbs. When he was a little kid, he had been chubby and struggled with drug issues on top of that by age 12. When he was 16, he was apparently so addicted to weed that his parents decided to look for drug addiction help. Growing up, he began to binge on ice cream, fries and cheeseburgers, which is not particularly unusual when your work requires you to stay up until very late at clubs and pubs. He opted to change his appearance and health by undergoing gastric bypass surgery in 2003. He lost 150 lbs!
