2 – not sure why, but the sudden weight loss (and I mean sudden, as in a 2 months) throws a person’s whole physical system out of whack and they look pale / yellow / gaunt / glassy eyed. Can’t really nail it down, but they just don’t look healthy and robust.
Interesting you say that, I just heard today that people who have the surgery often cant get the amount of nutrients they need (from supplements) and it often leads to them looking pale etc.
