Yes, that was me. The post was about his return to smoking, coinciding with him nearly stroking out at a bar. I was extremely concerned about his blood pressure (since he nearly had a stroke!), and I mentioned that I thought he was 10 pounds overweight.
The OddMan is still smoking, eats whatever he wants with no comment from me or our family doctor, and drinks with the boys once a week.
Edited to add: he wasn't overweight at the time. Since his visits to the doctor and his spring training, he dropped about 15 pounds, though it did not affect his blood pressure. I never encouraged him to lose weight or change anything other than the smoking.
