You are assuming because she self-published a DVD that's being sold on
an obscure website that she is selling thousands of copies.

Seeing is believing!

Hey Yeah!! Next time I'm on a 600km hilly bike ride, she can come
along too - would be fun to watch.

She'd leave you in the dust.

Yeah, if she sat on you.

I am not a fitness guru. I am also not 500 lbs. I am a simple person
who is into improving his health and has a particular view of what
fitness is, which could be simply defined in terms of practical
everyday tasks, like getting up 3-5 flights of stairs carrying 20 lbs
of groceries without being out of breath, having heart palpitations,
or other signs that you might want to take them in smaller sets. I
doubt that you could pass this test Real BBW. I have my doubts about
your Lynne McAfee.

Additionally, I am a normal guy who was a kind of heavy guy. I never
tipped 300 lbs. So, my appeal to a niche market of fat people who want
to eat snickers bars and do something like exercise is probably pretty
limited. My desire to market such a product is slightly more limited.
Gimme some time, and I'll catch up though.

Rather than a fitness industry mover and shaker (if she's 500, she
must move them with hip bumps and earthshaking jumping jacks), I am an
internal consultant within a cabinet level executive branch
department. My first project was to research and design a health
promotion campaign for our agency. It is projected to get the American
tax payer $4Mil in extra productivity per year from our agency, with
an initial investment under $20K, and ongoing much lower. For those at
home, that's a 20000% ROI.

I also presented my findings to basically every health and wellness
program supervisor in the Federal Government (representing about 1.8
Million employees), so there could be a significant multiplier on the
productivity gain side.

During this project, I found a neat study in the Journal of
Occupational and Environmental Medicine. The authors report that the
average person with a BMI 27 pretty much blows 5.8 hours of
productive work a week. They found that it scales up proportionately.
So, if you are 500 lbs and of normal woman height, regardless of
fitness (which I have already expressed my doubts about), you are
probably costing your employer quite a bit of cash with whatever it is
you waste your 6 hours a week doing. It's likely not exercise.

-Hollywood, who tires of your meaningless comparison. I am, by any
measure save ability to bear children, more fit than that very rotund
"fit" woman in your video.

This is what the freak show worships;

Interesting. Any chance of a more precise citation?

That number is meaningless without a comparison to people with a BMI 27.
I've seen lots of studies saying people in general waste a lot of worktime.

Thanks for signing up FOB. The comparison was made to people with BMI
27. The number is actually a relative number. So, if your BMI 26
person blows 3 hours at work, your BMI 28 person, on average, blows
8.8 hours. Scary.

Funny you should ask. I happened to have my files with me today, at
home, and, sure enough:
The Role of Health Risk Factors and Disease on Work Productivity
(Burton, et al 1999)
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/q...&dopt=Citation

This finding is NOT in the abstract. The piece of the abstract that
talks to this is the last line:
"Finally, disease states were also associated with different patterns
of productivity reduction."

This finding is among a particular set of workers at a particular
company. IIRC, they are telephone service reps. It was my feeling that
this was kind of similar to your typical federal employees work set,
though I suspect TSR's do more in a given day. That's a personal
observation and has no cite attached to it.
