Vanessa Feltz’s weight-loss surgery reflections
Vanessa has previously spoken about having a gastric band before later undergoing a gastric bypass.
The TV star revealed her weight had fluctuated between sizes 10 and 22 over three decades. She first went from a size 22 to a size 10 between 1999 and 2000, before regaining weight.
Vanessa had a gastric band fitted in 2010. However, she experienced complications when the band became embedded in her liver.
She said the band changed how she ate. While large amounts of solid food became difficult, she could still eat softer foods, including ice cream.
Vanessa later opted for a gastric bypass in 2019. The procedure was followed by a five-stone weight loss.
Vanessa’s account of childhood dieting
Vanessa has also traced her difficulties with dieting back to childhood in her memoir Vanessa Bares All.
She said she was put on a strict diet at nine and often went hungry. In one childhood memory, she described eating grapefruit for dinner while the rest of her family had soup.
Describing her mother’s alleged role in her dieting, Vanessa wrote: “By the time I was 20, my mother Valerie had begun scoring diet pills for me from her hairdresser.”
Looking back, she said the restrictions had felt like punishment. She did not understand what she had done wrong.
