Diva Taunia is a professional vocalist, radio host, and activist for the weight loss surgery community. For most of her adult life, she was morbidly obese at 300+ lbs. It wasn't until her weight began seriously affecting her health and her music that she began researching weight loss surgery. After six months of research, she chose RNY gastric bypass and on 3/25/08 her surgery was performed by Dr. Donald Hess at Boston Medical Center. To date, she has lost over 165+ lbs and continues to document her weight loss journey on her website, blog, and YoutTube channel.
