Married At First Sight ‘villain’ Olivia Frazer has shared before and after photos of her 50kg weight loss after undergoing surgery.

In an Instagram story Q&A, the 28-year-old teaching student said she weighed 95kg throughout her teens before deciding to have gastric sleeve surgery aged 22.

But after suffering from gallstones during her recovery, Olivia says she lost a dangerous amount of weight, dropping to just 45kg.

“My recovery was pretty good except I developed gallstones … When you have rapid weight loss you can develop that,” Olivia said. “So I was in a lot of pain. I went from 95kg to 45kg within a year.”

Olivia then shared before and after photos showing her rapid transformation.

According to healthdirect.gov.au, gallstones are “hard, pebble-like masses that form in your gallbladder, which is a small organ on the right side of your abdomen.”

The stones can block the tubes that carry digestive fluids to the bowel, the website says.

The Newcastle-based reality star said she eventually reached a healthy 70kg, which is what she weighs now.

She also revealed she managed to avoid overly sagging skin as a result of the procedure.

“I didn’t have much loose skin. I had a little bit in my arms but my boobies were very saggy, I had to have them done,” Olivia said, referencing a breast reduction she underwent after the gastric sleeve surgery.

Olivia was open about her past weight struggles during her time on MAFS, revealing her weight affected how she treated herself as well as her relationships with men.

“I felt like I had to settle for whatever I could get and I did. I settled for what I thought I deserved which is awful because I definitely deserved a lot better,” Oliva said in February.

She added that a lot of her insecurities “definitely stemmed from being overweight”.

“I tried to be as confident as I possibly could on the surface,” Olivia said.

“But deep down I knew everyone’s staring at the fat girl trying to fit into a skirt.”
