Lynda486 784 Posted November 7, 2019 At least from surgery to 6 months. He does make sense, but when I look back at my first surgery when I exercised daily (no Sundays) and lost 100 in six months. I just wanted to know what you all think of this. https://www.sleeveacademy.com/exercise?cid=89f985b6-0224-4fa3-998d-24f87c146ce6 2 GreenTealael and SabrinaGoddess reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
november11 970 Posted November 7, 2019 I have watched this recently and yes it makes sooo much sense . He is a little free spirited and cocky but he do make sense.

Lynda486 784 Posted November 7, 2019 I have watched other videos by him and they usually make perfect sense. 2 GreenTealael and november11 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lvidacovich 372 Posted November 7, 2019 Isn't this the guy who screwed someone out of a free lapband? And then moved from TX to IL to NM? And has been accused of doing surgeries on people who shouldn't have had them? 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

V, all I could find was hearsay or websites people put up on their own to express their feelings. Nothing substantiated. 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lynda486 784 Posted November 7, 2019 I have watched a few of his videos and I think it is up to the viewer to decide what they believe. I for sure don't buy into everything he says. Thank-you for responding! 2 GreenTealael and Cheeseburgh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hop_Scotch 1,632 Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) Last time I looked at his youtube channel and Facebook page he was spruiking about MLM products and he was trying to recruit sellers. Some of the major speakers at a conference he was organising at that time were major players in the MLM world. Haven't been back to look since.

Then released to do more after a month. (They would like to see patients walking for an hour 4/5 days a week) Here is my problem with waiting for six months (only my opinion) Exercise with bariatric diet complimented my weight loss. I got to goal in six months. Would I have lost at this rate if I waited? IDK 6 Cheeseburgh, Lynda486, alex76 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2Bsmaller18 436 Posted November 7, 2019 I can see not going overboard but I think the first 6 months is important for forming habits. I backed off on the amount of weight I lifted, rode the bike or treadmill at a slower pace etc. 2 Lynda486 and Healthy_life2 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenTealael 25,430 Posted November 7, 2019 I'm always on the fence about endorsing a sedentary lifestyle, it's rubbish to your health So many people have said it so very well so I'll just leave encouraging words here 5 Lynda486, Sophie7713, Deedee12 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like his videos, but when I had my band I started walking after a month and kept it up and increased as time went on and was totally fine. Lost all my weight in 9 months. I was SO freaking happy. Plan on listening to my doc and my body this time around as well. 1 Lynda486 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
