Jhoise from Tyra Banks Show.....did she have gastric bypass ?

[mypinkbow]

IS she the one who previously had gastric bypass like over a year ago and then switched to raw as a result of the diet wars on the show and now lost a bunch more weight?

[SmilingRawDancer]

Yeah, I think so...she previously weighed about 400 lbs.

**** Nevermind, that was her team-mate, sarah? I think that's her name.

Wow! I cant wait to watch the show. I wonder if once she is able to talk to us all if she will discuss her experience with the gastric bypass and how raw has trasformed her life. I had the lap band surgery in Aug 06 and have lost 35 pounds and am just about ready to jump back on the RAW bandwagon.

Jhosie is the person that lost the most weight on the Diet Wars show on the Tyra Bands show. Her partner Sara was the one that had gastric bypass surgery a year or so ago. She ended up not following the raw diet at all and therefore lost very little weight. Jhosie has now been hired by Alissa to be the Chef at her new Raw Restraurant she is opening soon. If you want to hear Alissa talk about the Diet Wars show you can listen to it on :
