Leaks ONLY occur 6-9 months out of you do not follow the propose relearning eating curb for the first 3-4 months. When you force yourself to eat like you did prior you stretch the stomach lining so the healing process takes longer. Remember ya organs takes a longer time to heal thank anything else on the outside. Your incisions will heal way before your stomach does. So of you're constantly stuffing ya gave and pitting pressure on the wounded stomach you will develop a leak forcing the healing period to extend to an even later date than originally planned. I has my surgery back in MAY and it was the net thing I ever did for myself

Triceps is not really the hardest to train. It's the fact that the triceps consists of 3 separate muscles that make up the triceps itself... If you are able to target EACH of these muscles you will be in good shape.

As a sleeved patient especially post op you should already know the struggles on both sides of fence. I think it's disgusting for a former obese person to criticize another obese person because you were once in their shoes so you should at least understand more than anyone else their pain and suffering. Instead I looking down on them like the world looked down on you, why don't you try to do the opposite and help them the way you helped yourself when no helped you? Why don't you try to enlighten them. I'm not saying do the work for them, I'm saying give them the blueprint to follow. As an obese person it's hard enough trying to maneuver around the insults and feelings of insecurity, no pun intended. So why would you make another person go through the same **** you are desperately trying to change in your own life? Why being them down to a place where you once felt the most vulnerable? How can you look at your fellow obese comrade or friend and judge them so easily and disgustingly? My question is do you hate yourself THAT much that you have to portray your faults on to others to make yourself feel better? If that's the case you will need more than this surgery to accomplish ya goals becaus this sounds more psychological then physical. I dont know about you all but I've neer been a negative person during my obese or slim stage. I've always remained position and kept my head in the game at all times and that helped me push myself further. In the process it ave me the strength to assist other going through what I went through. I'm a strong believer in karma becaus I'm a stronger advocate for support .
