Paul Wall Talks 100-Pound Weight Loss

Paul Wall isn’t what he used to be!

He received a Gastric Sleeve procedure earlier this year and has lost 100 pounds since then.

Said Paul in an interview:

├óΓé¼┼ôSince going back and forth on the drugs for years and taking diet pills, my metabolism was really gone. So I decided to go with the gastric sleeve, because it’s a little more serious than the lap band. They also cut out the hormones that make you hungry. So I actually don’t even get hungry anymore. The doctor talked me out of doing the lap band; he told me it’s the most popular, but it’s not as effective. With the lap band, you lose about 50% of your excess weight. I was 120 pounds overweight. I weighed 320 pounds, and I’m six feet tall. So with the lap band I still would’ve been morbidly obese. With the gastric sleeve, you typically lose 80% of your excess fat. I lost 100 pounds with it, so that’s putting me in a more healthy weight class.├óΓé¼┬¥

Paul says he’s only worked out twice since the the surgery, so all of the weight loss is due to the procedure.

Well, congratulations to Paul on the weight loss — just hope he’s happy and healthy!
