"At 24, I was edging closer to 300 lbs and couldn’t even look at myself without feeling crushed inside. It was like watching my own life slip out of my hands.”

Eight months after my gastric sleeve, I’m down 80 lbs — and for the first time in years, I feel genuinely comfortable in my own skin. Strong. Present. Alive.

I finally believe I deserve happiness, confidence, and the kind of self-respect I never allowed myself before.” – Aubrey🌼

Harper came to Istanbul Obesity Center looking for a real, lasting change. She chose gastric sleeve surgery, and that decision became the turning point of her entire life.

Within the first year, Harper lost 38 lbs. Her health improved, her energy returned, and her confidence started to shine again. 💙

But Harper's journey didn't end there.

One year later, she visited our sister @mildaclinic , to complete her transformation with plastic surgery. Not to become someone else — but to reveal the strong, elegant, confident woman she always knew she was. 💫

“I finally feel like the real me.
"Not a new person — just the woman I was meant to be." –Harper

Today, Harper is healthier, happier, and fully in control of her own life. And by us to share her journey, she's inspiring so many others to take their first step. 💙✨
“I never imagined I’d be sharing something thi “I never imagined I’d be sharing something this personal… but here I am.
90 lbs lighter, healthier, happier — and honestly, freer.” ✨

Chloe, our lovely patient from the UK, trusted us for her gastric sleeve journey. She recorded her transformation step by step on TikTok, and now she’s letting us share this incredible milestone. 💙

“The day I decided to have the surgery, I promised myself one thing:
I want my life back.”

Today, Chloe is not just 90 lbs down —
she’s more confident, more energetic, and finally living the life she dreamed of. 💪💫

Thank you Chloe for inspiring so many people with your honesty and your courage. Your journey is a reminder that change is possible — and worth it. 💙

During gastric sleeve surgery, approximately 75– During gastric sleeve surgery, approximately 75–80% of the stomach is removed. The remaining part is reshaped into a thin, tube-like “sleeve.”💫

☀This leads to:
📍Faster fullness with smaller portions
📍Reduced hunger hormone (ghrelin) levels
📍A more controlled and sustainable weight-loss process

The natural digestive flow is preserved — no intestines are cut or rerouted.

"The mental side of this journey has definitely be "The mental side of this journey has definitely been the toughest part — but if I had to, I would make the same decision a hundred times over. This wasn’t the ‘easy way out’ at all, no matter what people think. But the truth is… the mental part does get lighter with time, and I promise that.

Today my smile is brighter, my energy is higher, my confidence feels real, and I finally feel free from the weight I carried for so long. I still can’t believe I’m 75 lbs down 🙌

Choosing Istanbul Obesity Center is something I’d do again in a heartbeat."

"Tomorrow I’ll be celebrating both my birthday a "Tomorrow I’ll be celebrating both my birthday and my 9-month post-op milestone — and honestly, I can’t believe how much my life has transformed. I’m almost 100 pounds down, but the real change goes far beyond the scale.

❤ The constant back, chest, and neck pain I lived with is gone.
❤ My health markers — blood pressure, heart, iron levels — are finally in a healthy range.
❤ And for 9 months straight, I’ve actually kept up with healthy habits (yes… I’m officially a workout girlie now!).

But the part that means the most to me is showing up fully for my autistic son. I can run, jump, spin him around, chase him in the rain, hop on rides with him — and the way his face lights up knowing mommy can join in… it makes every step of this journey worth it.

I’ll always say this: choosing Istanbul Obesity Center was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made."

A year ago, I remember sitting there thinking, ‘Did I really make the right decision?’… and now I smile at how scared I was. Zero regrets — only gratitude. My only wish is that I had taken proper before photos to see how far I’ve come.
Thank you Istanbul Obesity Center for giving me the strength, support and the right tool to change my life ❤️"
