Former Tusker Project Fame singer Peter Msechu is on the journey to lose 17 Kgs. Writing from his hospital bed, Msechu says he has not eaten for two weeks and that he only smells the food he is brought.

"Daaah😅😅😅😅😅 hizi dawa za usingizi zinapokuwa zinaisha huwa mtu unakuwa kama hauna akili vizuri😅😅😅😅 Kuanzia sasa chakula nanusa sio😅 Msechu banaah unaweza nusa wali maharage ukasepa wewe baba wewe😅😅."

He added that he had been advised by people to lose weight through the gym or dieting but had tried all means.

"Anyways kuna watu wanasema sana kwamba nimepiteza muda na pesa miezi sita kupungua kilo 17 sio sawa🤔 wengine wanasema ungefanya diet siku mbili tu sijui mazoezi😅😅 hivi mnajua ni kwa kiasi watu wenye miili mikubwa wanahangaika kila kukicha kupunguza uzito?? nilifanya diet ya nguvu ya hadi kufungiwa ndani mimi ila hakuna kitu kigumu kama kushindana na vyakula duniani hapa wanaofanya diet wanajua, nilishafanya mazoezi ya kila aina kukimbia kuruka kamba kila kitu ila ilipokuja muda wa kula sikuweza kujizuia,"

He added, "Hayo madawa yenu ya chupa ndio usiseme hakuna kampuni sijanywa😌 unapewa madawa ya kunywa siku saba wanakwambia usile kitu utatoa kilo kadhaa umefika mwisho umetoa nusu kilo au point😏😏 ukiwauliza wanakwambia ulivuruga masharti au wanakwambia acha hiyo jaribu hii ya hormony mara sijui acha hiyo kula hii vidonge vya samaki😀😀 wanaendelea kuuza tu hamna kitu."

Msechu said he has not had the discipline of reducing what he has been eating in the past.

"FANYA KILA KITU FANYA MAZOEZI YAKO UNAYOYAJUA KUNYWA MADAWA YAKO ILA USIPOKUWA NA DISCIPLINE KWENYE CHAKULA UNAFANYA KAZI BURE. CHAKULA NI ASILIMIA 60 Kwenye kupungua Na Mengineyo ni Asilimia 20."

His last option has been the gastric balloon.

"Kwa hiyo kazi kubwa kwangu ilikuwa ni kuhakikisha natafuta njia sahihi ya Kuzuia HAMU YA KULA na KIWANGO KIDOGO CHA KULA Kwa sababu hata iweje kwa akili zangu nisingeweza kufatisha diet at all kwa kuona kilichopo mbele yabgu nakitamani na sitakiwi kukilaSasa hapo sasa ndio PUTO likawa jawabu langu kwa sababu HATA CHAKULA NIKITAMANI VIPI NITAKULA KIDOGO VIJIKO VITATU VINNE HADI 6 NIMESHIBA NIKILAZIMISHA NATAPIKA🤮 hiyo kwangu ndio ilikuwa njia sahihi ya kuzuia kula."

According to John Hopkins Medicine, a gastric balloon "Is a soft, smooth, durable balloon made of silicone rubber. It is designed to be placed in the stomach to reduce its capacity and help you feel full with less food. The deflated balloon is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach by a doctor using an endoscope (a thin, flexible tube)."
