Thinking about bariatric surgery but unsure of what to expect?
Sometimes the most powerful motivation comes from real people who’ve been exactly where you are overwhelmed, uncertain, and searching for a life-changing solution. In this blog, we’ll share inspiring real stories of international patients who lost over 100 pounds (45+ kg) after undergoing weight loss surgery in Turkey.
Meet Sarah from the UK – Lost 115 Pounds After Gastric Sleeve in Turkey
Sarah, 34, had struggled with obesity for more than a decade. After countless failed diets, she chose to travel to Turkey for a gastric sleeve procedure.
“I felt stuck in a body that didn’t match who I was inside,” she shared.
After the surgery, her life changed drastically. She lost 115 pounds in the first year, reversed her pre-diabetes, and now lives a much more active and confident life.
“Coming to Turkey for this surgery was the best decision of my life,” she says. “The hospital felt like a five-star hotel, and my surgeon was a professor who took time to really understand my health.”
James from Canada – Lost 140 Pounds and Got His Life Back
At 42, James had developed severe joint pain and high blood pressure due to his weight. His BMI was over 50, and he was told he needed bariatric surgery urgently.
He chose to undergo gastric bypass surgery in Turkey and hasn’t looked back since.
“I didn’t just lose 140 pounds. I gained back my mobility, my energy, and honestly, my happiness,” he said.
James was amazed by the professionalism of the medical staff and the modern technology at the hospital.
“Everything was clear and organized — from the airport pickup to the dietitian support months after surgery.”
Nora from Germany – Lost 105 Pounds and Overcame Emotional Eating
Nora struggled with emotional eating since her teenage years. Her transformation began when she traveled to Turkey to undergo a gastric sleeve procedure with a professor-level bariatric surgeon.
One year later, she had lost 105 pounds and had learned to develop a healthier relationship with food and her body.
“I was never judged or rushed,” she explains. “They focused on my full journey — not just the operation.”
