113 Heavy and Chubby p.281

 

　　Watch out, all you chubby¹ guys out there! If you continue to overeat, you might be just like MichaelHebrank.
He's 43 years old. He can't walk. He can stand up for no more than 30 seconds at a time. He has to usean oxygen mask to help him breathe. And he weighs 1,000 pounds(455 kilograms). He once became seriously illand couldn't get out of the house. In the end, he had to be forklifted out after the front wall of his housewas torn down. Poor Michael says, "Once I start eating, I can't stop. "So if you're on the heavy side, takecare lest you become another Michael.
