After years of struggling with her weight, Lauren Manzo has lost 30 pounds and is looking healthier than ever!
Manzo’s dieting became a major point of topic in the current season of Real Housewives of New Jersey. She even had to deal with rude comments about her body through anonymous Twitter followers.
“I hated myself,” the 24-year-old, told Us Weekly. “I was depressed.”
Manzo reached 185 pounds, which was at her heaviest. Due to her increase in weight, in September, Manzo took the advice of her parents, Caroline and Albert where she underwent lap band surgery. In 2008, her dad, Albert had the sugery.
Manzo lost a total of 30 pounds-20 pounds over the next seven months(the band was loosened in May), and another 10 by following a strict protein-and-veggie diet as well as a bootcamp like workout.
Although the Bravo Star is looking amazing, she still would like to loose 35 more pounds.
Manzo addedd, “Hopefully, by the end of the summer, I’ll be in a bikini. I’ve never worn a bikini in my life!”
