“I went for gastric bypass surgery. I respect people who persistently go to the gym.The gym is a lot of work .I had a good trainer but i would lose weight but i would regain that weight again very quickly,” said Raburu.
Blood Pressure
Taking to social media, Raburu narrated how his clothes started to become too tight and his blood pressure kept spiking frequently making him to lose his breathe.
“Its not making fun waking up and trying a trouser and its doesn’t fit you, you equally worry by the time i was going for the surgery i was not doing well, I was 164kgs i needed surgery because my blood pressure and cholesterol were high,” he furthered.
