Not to mention the appearance advantages. My wife got diagnosed with type
II, immediately lost 60 pounds and exercises every day. She was 15 years
younger than me to begin with, but now she looks twenty five years younger.
I got a trophy wife without giving up 70 percent of my net worth. What a
deal!

I couldn't help but notice that myself. But I've heard rumors that treating
diabetes or undergoing bypass surgery is even less fun.
The person I share my house with weighed 300 pounds until recently and now
takes a large handful of pills every day, has lost part of her sight,
underwent a series of surgeries to save what is left of her vision and can
barely feel her feet. Scared me right into a diet and exercise plan.
We may joke about heavy drivers, love our comfort and our food, but watching
the effects of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes first hand has made me into an
activist believer.
Besides cars go faster when they are lighter. Something about power to
weight ratio.
