1000-Lb. Best friends shows the journey of best friends as they try to lose weight. One of the stars, Vanessa Cross, had a mission to reach below 400 pounds for her to qualify for bariatric surgery. Season 1 ended showing that she achieved her goal and qualified for the surgery. However, fans wonder how things are going on with the star now, as people enjoyed seeing her on their screens.
Did Vanessa Cross Have Her Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery is a general term that describes surgery of the digestive system and/or weight loss surgeries. For anyone to undergo this sort of surgery, they have to weigh at least a hundred pounds over their ideal body weight as this reduces the risk of surgery complications; this is why Vanessa along with other 1000-Lb Best Friends pattern their lifestyle with this.
Where Is Vanessa Cross On Her Weight Loss Journey?
Vanessa’s best friend, Meghan Crumpler, with whom she grew up in high school also battles obesity. Meghan consistently posts updates about her weight loss journey on her social media pages, even after the show wrapped up. But how about Vanessa? Vanessa has neither talked about nor posted full pictures to document how she has been doing since she qualified for the surgery in March.
Judging from the face to shoulder pictures that she often posts, fans assumed that she already had her surgery; in the pictures, her face and neck seem slimmer and she also looked happier. For someone who initially weighed more than 400 pounds, it’s great news.
But, fans are wondering why the TV star has decided not to show full body pictures, the best conclusion that fans could come up with is that she signed an NDA with TLC and then can not reveal what her weight is; this would also mean TLC and the cast are working on a second season.
However, her secrecy could also mean that she has regressed and is probably back to living an unhealthy lifestyle that could lead to much more weight gain. Fans are worried and can not wait to have her back.
