Yep. Very rough shape. I feel for him; it's not easy carrying that around.
Not to sound like a cold hearted bastard, I don't feel for him, he's well aware of how much his weight affects his health. We are all responsible for our own well being, I don't care what his excuse is, if you want to loose the weight, you can, you must, do it. After being on prednisone for many years, my weight had ballooned to 280lbs (I'm only 5'11"). After I was allowed to stop the meds I vowed to loose the weight, all of it. It was probably one of the most difficult things I've ever had to do. It was a lot of hard work and self restraint, but I did it. In one year I lost exactly 100lbs, that was more then 15 years ago, and I've kept it off. If I can do it, anyone can (I have little will power usually)!!! You can come up with a million excuses, but ultimately, it's up to the individual, no matter how busy your life is, you have to change your lifestyle, at first, it's difficult, but then, once you've adjusted to it, it's really not that hard.
Ford is just discouraged, and with his excessive weight, he's one hamburger away from a fatal heart attack. I despise the man politically, he's a total embarrassment to our city, but, as a fellow human being, I don't wish the man harm (just want him to go away!), I pray he looses the weight before its too late, he does have a family to look after, how selfish can the man be to show such contempt and disregard for his own health. He's probably the type that will wait to have a heart attack before doing anything about it, but from my medical experience, one who is that over weight, with so much stress in his life, seldom survives the first heart attack, just sad!
