This individual, who shall remain unnamed, has performed an extraordinary accomplishment.

Knowing the potential side effects of being very overweight, he decided to drop a few pounds. Since
February of last year, this person has gone from 290 lbs down to 225 lbs.

THAT, my friends, is an accomplishment worthy of lots of applause and pats on the back.

Way to Go, Buddy!!

I think I know who you are talking about and I add my
congratulations. That's quite a feat.

It certainly is. Hopefully he'll share the secret. I know a few
people who have used weight watchers with a great deal of success. I
know a few others who were initially succesful but then fell off the
program and gained it back.
