DAVID LANGE – 100 LBS: WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY

The former New Zealand Prime Minister might just be the only head of state who has ever gotten a gastric bypass. This center-leftist politician got the procedure done in 1982, although biographer Michael Bassett later said that the procedure made his health deteriorate. Even though it is now impossible to further verify the claim since Lange is no longer around, the politician never did talk about his surgery. It is common knowledge in the country that he decided to do this since he could not control his craving for more food. However, other people soon followed in his footsteps. Fellow local politicians Ken Douglas and Donna Awatere decided to undergo the procedure themselves as well.
