TELSAH, from Arizona, USA, has completely transformed her body and life after losing an amazing 120lbs.
Telsah was always a bigger child and developed a bad relationship with food at an early age.
Her calorie count was between 6,000 and 7,000 per day and was filled with unhealthy junk food.
Telsah told truly: "I used food as a comfort for anything, whether it was sadness, happiness, scared, stress, it didn't matter what it was." This unhealthy binge eating led to her weight gain and despite showing a happy exterior, Telsah kept her real feelings hidden way inside.
Telsah said: "The feeling of me being scared to die at such a young age, me being almost 300lbs, eating three to four dinners a day... I knew I needed to change my life." At the age of 18, Telsah decided to act and made the life changing decision to have vertical gastric sleeve surgery.
With a lot of hard work, changing her diet and working closely with a personal trainer, Telsah dropped an incredible 120lbs and has finally got the body and confidence she always wanted.
Telsah added "When I look in the mirror now, I see me, I see happiness and I see a fit, healthy, happy person.
You have to have faith in yourself and just go with it." https://www.instagram.com/tels123/
