I don’t know your neighbor’s exact situation, but I do know that it’s harder than most people realize for an obese person to lose weight. More often than not, a lifetime of sketchy (not necessarily bad) eating habits combined with a series of diets that never result in permanent weight loss can screw up your metabolism so bad that some people actually gain weight if they try to diet, because their body thinks it’s being starved and will convert everything to stored fat. Furthermore, for the seriously overweight, exercise is often a difficult and painful experience. It’s very easy to avoid taking a walk when you know it’s going to result in an abundance of sweat, heat, back pain, knee pain, ankle pain, foot pain, etc. Hopefully your neighbor is not just on disability, but is also being provided the resources to really improve his overall health. A fitness and rehab center would be able to design an exercise plan that would not cause too much discomfort. Being on disability, though, your neighbor may not be able to afford it. I hope this is something that would be encouraged and paid for by his union so that he can return to work.
