Yeah that does suck.
I guess he finally hit that point where the pain outweighed (sorry for the pun) the pleasure.
It's very easy to gain weight. Think of it this way...you've been a large person your whole life. You found a woman and you are in love with each other. You get married. There is no longer anything holding you back from gaining. There is no social pressure to look good to get laid. Your wife loves you for who you are inside and out. Things get comfortable. The weight slowly creeps up. Eventually the thought of exercising isn't even an option because you can't even do simple daily activities anymore without it being a chore. Therefore you don't burn what you eat.
And on and on and on. It's a vicious cycle.
It sucks.
But I'm glad he's getting help. Hopefully they give him therapy too, otherwise he'll just balloon up again.
