41. when someone gets to be more than 1000 pounds
it isn't a case of simply eating too much. There are some major medical problems there. I'm just glad he is getting help. It isn't only people who are grossly overweight who are discriminated against, but even folks who are marginally overweight or obese are often looked down upon. I'm glad to see that this thread has taken a by and large compassionate tone.
