Randy Jackson Writing Diet Book

July 21, 2008 by Jeanne

American Idol judge, Randy Jackson, will be authoring a diet book called The No-Nonsense Guide to Getting Fit, Eating Better, and Living Longer. The decision comes after Jackson faced his own weight-loss demons by losing 150lbs in 2003.

Is anyone a little… iffy about this? I mean, I’m happy that Randy is putting a focus on good health but I thought he lost most of that weight through gastric bypass. I know that the surgery isn’t a cure all, end all and requires major effort but I wonder if people who haven’t had the procedure can really relate to what Randy did to lose weight.

The book is set to hit shelves in November.
