113 Heavy and Chubby
    Watch out, all you chubby guys out there! If you continue to overeat, you might be just like Michael
    Hebrank.
    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 use
    an oxygen mask to help him breathe. And he weighs 1,000 pounds(455 kilograms). He once became seriously ill
    and couldn't get out of the house. In the end, he had to be forklifted out after the front wall of his house
    was torn down. Poor Michael says, "Once I start eating, I can't stop. "So if you're on the heavy side, take
    care lest you become another Michael.
