Now THAT is a Big Man!

A Mexican man, Manuel Uribe, left his house for the first time in five years. Uribe once weighed 1235 pounds! Now, after one year on The Zone diet, he's down nearly 400 pounds, but still weighs over 800. He celebrated by getting forklifted into the back of a truck and driving around town. I truly wish him well. His goal is to get down to 265 pounds, which the doctors say could take 3 or 4 years, so he's still got another 500 or so to go. Man, that makes my goal of 60 pounds seem pretty inconsequential!
