      Makin's story is the opposite of what's happening to most internet users - sitting behind the screen for hours on end eating junk food and turning into lard buckets.

      Good for her, though. Weighing 700 pounds doesn't sound like much fun.

        This goes to show... The computer can lead to many problems. Yet, it also has the capacity to be a blessing. Life is often like this. Things can be used for great blessing or great curses. Kudos to her!

            I dont believe this story....everybody knows you cant hear a cheeseburger from inside a closed frig. Now if it was in the pantry or a bag on the counter thats a different story.

              May God bless her. She must have been so hurt. I hope that she continues to do well.

              Debra...
