1/25/2013

According to a new study out of University College of Cork, in Ireland, if I asked you how much you weighed, you'd LIE.  Because they found that EVERYONE LIES.  The only difference is how MUCH we lie.

Here's a breakdown of how many pounds the average person shaves off their weight . . .

  • A guy who's obese:  Five pounds. 
  • A guy's who's overweight:  Two pounds.
  • A guy who's normal weight:  One pound.
  • A woman who's obese:  Six pounds.
  • A woman who's overweight:  Three pounds.
  • A woman who's normal weight:  One or two pounds.
