A pretty female influencer surprised her followers by posting before and after photos and a video of herself after having a sleeve gastrectomy -- a surgical weight-loss procedure. In the video, the influencer said that her previous weight was 86kg and she lost 18kg in three months following surgery.

The post received a lot of attention on the internet, especially from people who are having difficulty losing weight. However, many people opposed the post and commented that the influencer should have also provided details of any side effects that occurred since sleeve gastrectomy is a major surgery.
