Blog Post #1

I recently read in the star tribune about a 990 pound man, Jose Luis Garza, who went on national television pleading for diet tips. He says "I understand that this is matter of life and death and that I have to follow the instructions that are given to me." The worlds heaviest man, Manuel Uribe, who weighs 1,230 pounds gave him tips to help him shed some weight and since then Garza has lost 550 pounds. Uribe says  Garza is still worried about his weight, considering he still cannot get out of bed. His sister had to move in recently to help him around the house and care for him. "I spoke with him and I really want to give him a hand and give him the benefit of my own experiences,". I liked this because two people with the same problem are helping each other out to get better.
