51. Every extra pound of weight

Sun Mar 30, 2025, 04:43 PM

Sunday

Puts 4x pounds of pressure on your load bearing joints - hips, knees, ankles. Even at 6'4", or so he says, he is at least 80 lbs overweight (Class 1 obesity). That's an extra 320 lbs of pressure on his load bearing joints. I'm much shorter than him, and 10 years younger, but I've been in that obesity class. It's hard to get around. I started getting pressure on a nerve and my leg would go numb.

He has the best doctors and chefs in the world at his disposal. He could lose the weight if he wanted to. He just doesn't think he should have to. He'd rather eat like a teenager.
