Well at the size he was in the beginning I couldn\'t imagine a healthy way for him to lose weight considering the tremendous weight he\'d be putting on his joints just to walk. I guess water aerobics or something, but sheesh, talk about letting yourself go.

Post by: Cerberus on September 04, 2007, 12:45:47 PM: the first thing that went through my mind when I saw that flap of skin the surgeons were working on, was that if he was still fat, he would have seen that and thought "hmmm, that would be nice char-grilled, on a burger, or next to some salad"
