Ruben Studdard – 115 pounds

Ruben Studdard’s introduction to the American public came through the reality singing competition, American Idol. When he was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Although the condition obviously causes him obstacles in day-to-day life, it also taught him to eat healthy food and that exercising was very important. Studdard managed to lose an impressive 115 pounds through sheer determination. He was grateful for having chosen this route of weight loss instead of gastric bypass surgery which seems like a quick fix. We’re sure his insurance provider is as happy as his nutritionist because such surgeries cost a lot of money and mess around with your health too.
