As her daughter is Vegan, and Kathy herself is an advocate of animal welfare the family stays away from dairy products and meat. Kathy always tries to eat vegetarian and healthy. And as she said in her interview, she had tried almost all weight loss diets for faster results.

To lose weight the most important factor that anyone should always consider first is the diet. What you eat is the biggest point in your weight loss. If you eat healthy foods you lose weight and if you eat more unhealthy foods you gain weight. But what stops people from eating more & more healthy foods? It is the very less options in healthy foods that are tasty. The taste is the main element that stops people from opting for healthy diets.

And on the other hand, almost all unhealthy foods are very good in taste. This is the biggest reason why most people want to lose weight but can not start their journey of losing weight. But as technology becomes more progressive, the health industry also has progressed. There is a modern-day recipe that can help you in making your favorite foods healthy. This recipe is different for each people according to age, weight, and gender. If you want to know more about this recipe then you can click here and watch the video.

Kathy Najimy Weight Loss Surgery

Kathy publically accepted that she has lost 50 pounds of weight in 2012 but all in healthy and natural ways. She didn’t say anything about weight loss surgery. And there are plenty of rumors about her undergoing surgery for weight loss. But none of these ever proved. In fact, Kathy is an advocate of accepting yourself as you were born naturally.

As the Hocus Pocus 2 was released, People suspected that there is a bit of difference in the actresses’ looks. Kathy definitely lost 50 pounds of weight in 2022 but there is no confirmation from her side about losing weight in 2022, too. To find out the answer to this question, I did a little research. I went through her social media profiles and comp[ared her before-after pictures and I did find some differences. The difference is not that big but I think that Kathy Najimy might have lost a few pounds in 2022, too. Here are some images I found from her social media profiles. Have a look and comment down your views.

We searched a lot about any trusted news but didn’t find single media coverage on this topic. And not even Kathy or any of her associates confirmed anything about this ever. So, I can say that Kathy Najimy never had a stroke.
