Randy Jackson: Gastric Bypass Surgery

When American Idol first started, we were introduced to its judges including record producer Randy Jackson, who has a large presence on the show. But as time when on, we started seeing a much slimmer version of Randy, as he reportedly lost a whopping 114 lbs after his gastric bypass surgery.

Randy’s journey to a healthier body began in 2003 when he was almost 300 pounds, was diagnosed with type-II diabetes and was sick of all the body-shamers. After his surgery, Randy began understanding his body better and switched to a healthier diet and a more intensive exercise regimen.
