[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5369405, member: 24302"] I'm 6'2" and for much of my FedEx career was 280-290 lbs. I looked like a football lineman. It was more about my diet that gave me diabetes. Ate a lot of fast food, drank sugar soda. I'm about 230 now but have also lost a lot of muscle. Used to pick up 150 lb crates all the time but can't do that now. 100 lbs maybe. I've got a bad lower back, bad knees that make steps hard, and bad feet that burn when I eat too many carbs. My family helped me out with me staying at my dad's and my sister putting me on her family cellphone plan and letting me use a car. I paid them back by constantly running errands, doing chores, and giving my parents money. I still give them money but it's cheaper to live here than living in the States even with free rent and a free car. In the next two months I will pay off 4 credit card bills. Couldn't do that in the States. [/QUOTE]
