It was sad to hear that she once tried to kill herself because of her clinical depression. Holliday attributes her mood swings to her weight gain and decided to get a gastric bypass surgery to lose the extra pounds. As a matter of fact, she had been one of the first celebrities to improve their figure by doing this. She managed to lose around 124 lbs after the surgery.
