Actress Sandra Dacha has finally broken her silence on her striking physical transformation, revealing that she underwent a gastric sleeve procedure to shed weight.
The disclosure came via a post shared by Nairobi Gossip Club on Instagram on November 10, 2026, putting to rest weeks of speculation that had gripped Kenyan social media following the emergence of a video showing the actress looking noticeably frail while in hospital.
Dacha confirmed she had a significant portion of her stomach surgically removed as part of the weight-loss procedure.

According to the information she shared, between 75% and 80% of the stomach is taken out, leaving the patient with only about 20% to 25% of the original organ.

The result is a much smaller stomach that restricts the amount of food a person can eat, which leads to considerable weight reduction over time.
The surgery is a recognised bariatric procedure performed worldwide, often recommended for individuals struggling with obesity or weight-related health conditions when conventional methods have not delivered lasting results.
