After months of anticipation from fans and media, TikTok influencer, Remi Bader finally opens up about her recent weight loss journey. In an interview with Self magazine, Remi admitted that she did go under surgery in December 2023. However, the surgery wasn’t just any other people undergo to lose weight fast.
As explained by her, Remi Bader weight loss journey was a result of a new surgery, called SADI-S. SADI-S or single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass is a hybrid of two very popular weight loss surgeries- gastric bypass and gastric sleeves.
Based on her statement, Brigham and Women’s Hospital described that the surgery involves removing the outer portion of the stomach and connecting the upper small intestine to the loop of the lower small intestine. The surgery causes hormonal imbalance, reduced appetite, and slow metabolism.
