Sofia Alessia was told not to go to Turkey so stayed in the UK

A Greater Manchester woman who forked out £10k on weight loss surgery was left "throwing up lumps of flesh" and was told she could die.

Over the following days she says she was left ''constantly throwing up lumps of flesh'' and unable to keep any fluids or food down. After 24 hours she was discharged home but was only there for three hours before calling 999 and being rushed to Blackburn Hospital. During this final surgery, doctors were able to remove the staples from her bowels and small intestine, which had caused the deadly infection.

'I couldn't stop binge eating' Before becoming a mum, Sofia ''easily maintained'' a size 10 figure but gained weight in 2019, after the birth of her daughter, Alya-Valentina. She began binging on family-sized packets of crisps and a multipacks of Kinder buenos, and soon inflated to a size 16. After the procedure to remove a large part of her stomach, leaving just a thin sleeve, she woke to find herself ''uncontrollably vomiting'' and feeling extreme dehydration.

The influencer was then moved to Worcester Hospital for further treatment, and was fitted with a feeding tube. The insertion later revealed two blood clots located in each lung. 'They called my mum and said I might die' On March 21, 2022, Sofia underwent a gastric bypass, but due to the issues with the previous surgery, they were forced to remove ''almost all' of her stomach.
