40 Celebrities Whose Lives Took a Good Turn After Losing Weight
Mariah Carey, I’ll Be There, 30 Pounds

One of the most beloved voices of our time, American national treasure Mariah Carey, is truly the crème de la crème for her skillset. Still, the concern surrounding weight loss and body image got in the way of her goals from time to time.
Mariah did not wait for a long-winded diet plan and instead decided to cut herself some slack by going under the knife, choosing gastric bypass surgery, where the size of one’s stomach is reduced, thereby compressing the appetite. Although Mariah shed the extra pounds, she had to stick to a healthy diet and workout regimen to maintain the new weight.
