From Obese to Athletic
by Sue Lozinski

Read the story of a woman just about to turn 40 who is ready for a change because she is tired of what she see on the way to the shower every morning.  Pass this story on to "that" friend who has always talked about "weight loss" and not being happy where they are at physically.

"Freak Show"

You may find this appalling and disturbing but it's very true.  Society today has got out of control in the weight gain category.  This wasn't an issue like it is today 20-50+ years ago but we can' t let society continue to go this way.  Read about how in  1860 and obese man was considered a "Freak Show", what does that say about 25% of our population today?
