The Iron Yuppie

This guy has been getting a lot of coverage in the media.

I find the story really quite inspirational and would probably like even MORE updates on his weight and health. I mean the guy is going to come out the other end as strong as an ox.

For me, though, Tour de France riders are always going to be the best method of making me understand of what the human body is capable when it comes to diet and exercise. Those guys burn 6,000 calories a day... they eat as much as they can and still lose weight. Nothing could be a better example of how easy it is to balance diet and exercise. Calories in > calories out? You get fat. Calories in < calories out? You lose weight.
