SIOUX FALLS, South Dakota (AP) -- A man who once weighed more than half a ton has lost 321 pounds under the care of a team of doctors and hopes to lose 450 pounds more.

1/2 a ton...As a society, we are shrecked up. Get some excercise you lazy shrecks.:mad:

So our society is overweight...It's an individual problem not a national problem. Is our government ashamed of us because we are fat? Should we be embarrased to be seen in other countries? Or to have someone from other countries come visit?
HAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR!!

actually, I just saw in Fox news here in florida that paramedics were called in to the home of a 600 lb woman.
I never cought WHY she had called in (aka dont know what medical problem she or someone else called 911 for)...
but the medics and firefighters were shocked to find out that the woman's skin had actually GROWN OVER AND MERGED with the couch's cloth.
Apparently this woman had been sitting in the couch for FIVE YEARS.
Rescue workers had to wear special breathing masks because the musk and smell of the house was making them sick.
The couch's cloth cover had to be surgically removed from the woman..
That is just... SICK.

"Even though he's faced negativity all these years, he's not a negative person," Edith Deuel said. "He's almost always been able to stay bubbly and make jokes and be happy."
hey, as long as you're happy right?
We used to call a lineman QT a few years ago. QT for 'quarter ton'. He was just shy of 500. He was a 2nd or 3rd string nose tackle. I still remember the night went airborne diving on top of one of the backs during a spoofed quicktrap. The entire stadium went "oohhh!!!" in unison. Last name was Anton. We havent seen him in a while... we think he's even more massive now. Good guy too. Happy fat people make me smile :D

"A group known as the League of Human Dignity helped arrange for Deuel to be driven to a local livestock scale, where he could be weighed."
Weighing someone on a livestock scale is not something to do for their dignity :lol
