Hi, I’m Tai, I’, 31 years old, and I’ve lost a total of 91 pounds. I’m currently ten months post-op after gastric sleeve surgery. Since 2018, after a bad breakup, which caused stress eating and moderate depression, the weight started to pile on me over a span of five years. I weighed in at my heaviest: 310 pounds.
I knew I needed to change and take my journey more seriously when my doctor told me my developing health issues were due to being obese. This journey has been so incredible, and I don’t regret it. I love myself much more, my confidence has skyrocketed, and I’m healthier.
