reveals the move was a long time coming after battling bulimia as a
child and then being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

didn’t want to worry,” Sidibe, 33, tells PEOPLE of her decision to get
laproscopic bariatric surgery after she and her older brother Ahmed, 34,
were diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. “I truly didn’t want to worry
about all the effects that go along with diabetes. I genuinely [would]
worry all the time about losing my toes.”
