Media Personality Willis Raburu was rather calm and composed when addressing a fan who was skeptical about his gastric bypass surgery.
The fan took to his comment section to claim that Raburu had been duped out of his money during the process because there is no anonymous change yet.
“KSh 900,000 ilikunywa maji tu hivo? Walikudanganya,” suggested the fan.
Willis responded calmly and composedly, telling the fan to be patient because losing weight is a process, and while he may appear similar to before, he is taking it one day at a time, having lost 21 kgs so far.

“It is a process. I was about 164 kgs and now I am down 21 kgs. It takes time. One day at a time. Even 21 kgs down I’m still heavier than most but it is progress. Usikuwe na haraka. Ni investment,” remarked Willis.
A few days ago, Willis Raburu confessed that his health was the reason he felt compelled to get weight loss surgery.
The host of the 10-Over -10 Show recently opened up in an interview with Youtuber Mungai Eve about how he underwent weight-loss surgery, saying that it cost him over Ksh. 900,000.
According to Raburu, going to the gym didn’t work out for him, so he decided to have surgery.
“I went for gastric bypass surgery. I respect watu wanaenda gym. Gym ni kazi, nilikua na good trainers but nilikua na loss weight but inarudi.
(Although I had a good gym trainer, I would lose weight and then regain it)
“By the time I was going for the surgery I was not doing well. I was 164kgs I needed the surgery because my blood pressure and cholesterol were high,” he added.
According to him, the surgery has assisted him in reducing his food intake, which will subsequently aid in his gradual weight loss.
As part of a weight-loss procedure called a gastric bypass, the stomach and small intestines no longer process food as they once did.
A considerably greater portion of the stomach is removed in order to create a tiny pouch at the top of the stomach.
The remainder of the stomach is missed (bypassed) as the pouch is subsequently attached to your small intestine.
This implies that it takes less food to fill you up.
Kenyans have now expressed a variety of responses and viewpoints regarding the incident, with some claiming that he could have spent a smaller portion of the money on a gym membership and continued to be as healthy instead of having the surgery.
Others, on the other hand, have agreed with him, noting that if you have the money, you may spend it any way you like.
