Al Roker
Television personality, best remembered as NBC’s weatherman, Al Roker made headlines for his top notch journalism abilities but also for his battle with many failed dieting attempts. In 2002 that all changed when Roker underwent gastric bypass surgery to lose weight easy. He had lost around 100 pounds off his 320 pound figure, later in 2013 he published a book on his weight loss transformation titled, Never Goin’ Back: Winning the Weight Loss Battle For Good.
Shonda Rhimes
In Shondaland, anything is possible, especially when it comes to your favorite characters getting killed off (i.e. McDreamy, Lexie Grey, McSteamy, GEORGE, need we go on?!) Sorry, as a <Grey’s Anatomy fan, I’m still incredibly devastated and heart broken. While I’m not thrilled with the decisions Rhimes makes in TV land, I am impressed with her staggering 127 pound weight loss! Thanks to her kids, she made some lifestyle changes and incorporates a strict diet and intense cardio workouts.
