We’ll also get an update on clinical trials for gastric bypass revision surgery, find out why women store fat differently than men, and investigate whether those fad diets have any lasting impact when it comes to long-term weight loss.

It’s great that someone is focusing on childhood obesity because as we know, obese children almost always end up being obese adults and children can be especially cruel to overweight kids. Hey, and you’re right about those bike pants! Again, great job! Reply Leave a Reply Cancel ReplyYour email address will not be published.CommentName* Email* Website CAPTCHA Code *
