Repost our amazing patient Laura: 🌟 14 months post op 🌟 7.5 stone ⬇️
Trying on bikinis for what will be my first summer holiday with my new body. I’m still amazed by the difference ☺️ Being completely honest, when I first tried this bikini on my eyes darted to my inner thigh loose skin and my flat chest and I almost sent it back 😂 but I gave myself a good talking to and reminded myself how far I’d come from the old version of me. For me this is not just a physical journey, the mental and emotional side plays a huge part. I’m both physically and mentally healthier and so I want to learn to live with a bit of loose skin, though I do miss my old boobs 🍉😂 I was also saying to my partner that I genuinely do not remember being as I big as I was in the first picture, it’s madness. Looking forward to wearing my new bikini in Cyprus, wobbly bits and all ☀️ @tonicsurgery

Tonic Tips: Best Vitamins for Post-Weight Loss Surgery! Read here ⬇️
Taking the right vitamins and minerals is crucial for your recovery and long-term health. You may ask yourself, why are Tonic vitamins the best after having weight loss surgery (WLS)?
Biotin is best known for contributing to the maintenance of normal hair and skin. It also contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal function of the nervous system, normal psychological function, normal macronutrient metabolism, and the maintenance of normal mucous membranes.
Collagen: Our collagen comes from a hydrolysed fish source. The collagen bonds have been broken, leaving the essential amino acids intact and ready for digestion. Some of the key benefits of collagen are improved skin elasticity and hydration, thicker hair, healthier nails, and increased muscle mass.
Your body requires the right balance of vitamins and minerals to regulate important processes for weight loss, including hunger and appetite, fat and sugar metabolism, energy storage, and nutrient absorption. Our vitamins are specially formulated to meet the nutritional needs of bariatric patients, supplying you with all the key ingredients you need for optimal health.

💰🏥 Invest in Your Health: WLS vs. Natural Methods 🏥💰
With WLS:
Cost: Higher upfront costs
Results: Life-changing results in just 12-18 months
Without WLS:
Costs: Diets, gym memberships, healthcare expenses
Result: Stop-and-start cycle, higher long-term costs
Invest in WLS with Tonic for a much more certain, long-term success. 💪❤️

Repost our amazing patient Zara:
Happy 1 year sleeve-versary to me 🤍
-9stn (126lbs)
Undergoing a Gastric Sleeve was a decision I didn’t take lightly. It was discussed with my GP, and after years of battling with my weight, and ending up at the point where I would hardly leave the house, couldn’t face customers coming to collect their cakes, wouldn’t step foot in the local shop, used to drive to a supermarket 40 minutes away to avoid seeing anyone I know… it became my last option.
Many may call it the easy way out, but when you reach the point I did where you don’t want to go out in public, won’t see friends, and hit the depths of depression I did; due to the way I looked, there was no other option left.
I missed out on SO much with our children in the past 6 years. I had taken Ralph swimming once in his life… I wouldn’t go on many days out because the thought of seeing someone I knew, crippled me.
A Gastric sleeve is for life, something you have to consider daily, and believe it or not, is the most difficult thing I have ever done. You still have to make healthy choices, as you would on a ‘diet’. You could undergo this operation and still eat as much crisps and chocolate as you like (slider foods… aka anything that melts to nothing), and therefore not lose the weight. A sleeve is a tool, not a quick fix. I like to call it forced portion control.🤣
The journey will never be over, as for life I’ll have to take multiple tablets a day, hit protein goals, have multiple routine blood tests, battle the hair loss (thank god I had too much to start with, because I’ve lost half of what I used to have😂)…
All that being said, I owe so much to @tonicsurgery for giving me my life back. For giving our children the mother they deserve, who’ll take them here, there, and everywhere, agree to holidays, to days out… and most of all, feel happy again.
To my surgeon, @mrsherifawad , THANK YOU!!!😭❤️
