There is an interesting story behind Melly Goeslaw’s weight loss journey. The “What’s Up with Love” singer only realized she had diabetes shortly before she underwent bariatric surgery to reduce weight.
Anto Hoed’s wife began to realize that something was wrong with her weight when she began to find it difficult to perform light activities, such as shortness of breath and knee pain while climbing stairs. She had undergone several diet patterns but failed.
As chronicled on Trans TV’s Morning Ambyar show, this mother of two decided to have bariatric surgery on the advice of her fellow singer, Tompi. But before the operation, Melly had to undergo a series of tests as a condition of bariatric surgery. That’s where she just found out she has a history of diabetes.
“So from all of that, I knew I had level 8 diabetes. Luckily, I just found out because if I’d known beforehand, I’d been on medications and even taken insulin. I wasn’t there yet,” Melly recalled.
Confused at first that her weight continued to gain even though she ate little, Melly finally consulted a nutrigenomics expert. After being examined, it was discovered that he had a genetic disease that made him gain weight more easily.
“After checking the nutrigenomics, it’s true that my gene for eating carbs may go up a bit,” Melly said.
He had a diet drug shot
Melly Goeslaw’s struggle to have an ideal body weight is not an easy one. She has realized she was overweight since she was pregnant with her first child.
She went through all kinds of dietary patterns, even got injections of weight-loss drugs.
“From the moment of the first portrait, 45kg, increased by 33kg, continued to inject slimming, taking medicine, slimming to 53kg. He increased again to 33kg, after which the injection of lean could no longer drop to 53 kg, at most it was 75 kg, that’s all,” he explained.
Now that she has had bariatric surgery, she has started to lose weight and her lifestyle has changed. Although she has lost 23kg, she is still struggling to reach 55kg.
“Now I have 99-100 sugars, before it was 250. Now I eat a little bit of everything, I can’t eat much. If you feel very nauseous and feel sick, you will feel full quickly.” Melly concluded.
