40 Celebrities Whose Lives Took a Good Turn After Losing Weight

Rosie O’Donnell, The Rosie O’Donnell Show, 64 Pounds

Rosie O'Donnell, an actress and TV program host, tried a lot of diets and failed. She also had a heart attack that almost killed her. That's when she decided to call in the major guns. She chose to get a gastric bypass, and as a result, she lost an amazing sixty-four pounds!

Rosie's dedication has been renewed since the surgery, and she now makes sure to get out and about more and watch what she eats. You can still live a healthy life even if you require medical support periodically.
