1. Ex: does being fat/very thin affect your risk of experiencing fat embolism? Though I guess it is probably better to be average to thin weight so you have less pressure on the nail anyway?
2. Some totally unrelated things crossed my mind too. On one hand, it seems like it would be easier for the leg to lengthen if you leg is thinner (less material resisting the stretching/less pressure). On the other hand, some people lose a huge amount of weight from the difficulty of leg lengthening / body recovering and so it would seem you might not want to come in too thin. Who am I kidding, lol, I'll never come in extremely thin lol, only slightly below average weight at thinnest.
That being said, tbh even an average weight person has a ton of fat reserves to burn through so I'm guessing this might be a non-issue?
