PSYCHIC Sally Morgan looked into her future and didn’t like what she saw.
Doctors told her that she was eating herself to death when she weighted 27st at just 5ft tall.
Shocked Sally, then 58, decided to take urgent action and have surgery to reduce her stomach.
Sally revealed at the time: “I’d tried every kind of fad diet, but they all failed.
“When I was told my life depended on it, I decided to have a gastric bypass.”
In the three-hour operation in 2009 Sally’s stomach was shrunk to the size of a golf ball.

Sally, who’s performed readings for stars including Princess Diana and Uma Thurman, said back then: “It’s been a great success.
“I weigh 12st 10lb now and it’s brilliant to be able to wear a swimming costume. I feel like I’ve been reborn!”
The reality TV star shed an impressive 16 stone in total and dropped TEN dress sizes following the op.
In an interview with MailOnline, she spoke about her drastic wake-up call.
She said: “I had a little heart attack. And if I hadn’t have lost weight… my cardiologist said you must have surgery otherwise you’ll die.
“I was very happy at 27 stone because I love food!
“People loved me when I was big. So much so that people would come to the show and go ‘oh you’re not the same’ And I am exactly the same.
“I always say to them, ‘but I’m alive. I’ve got grandchildren and I want to see them grow up, go to university and hopefully have babies.’
“Which I wouldn’t have done had I remained 27 stone. That cardiologist saved my life.”
