I did not go through surgery to lose weight, it’s life threatening – Teni
Nigerian singer/songwriter Teniola Apata, popularly known as Ten, has denied having undergone surgery to lose weight.
In an interview on the Zero Conditions Podcast, Teni Entertainer lamented that despite her best attempts to lose weight and burn extra fat, people continue to think she’s had plastic surgery to alter her appearance.
“I went through a lot. I went through a lot of changes. I lose weight and some unfortunate fellows said I did surgery.
“If I did surgery my stomach will be flat. I wish but I was scared. Surgery is not easy. It’s life threatening. It’s not easy to go under the knife”, she said.

According to the ‘No Days’ singer, she was on a strict diet for months and she made sure she was disciplined enough to take care of herself.
“I was on a strict diet. Ask my managers. No carbs. I was on a strict diet for two months.
“But it taught me discipline. The mind is also a muscle. The way you flex your arms, discipline helps you flex your mind. It was not easy. Do you know what it means for me to take people out on dinner and I can’t eat what they are eating?” she added.
