I've been heavy starting in the 5th grade. Except for a brief period between 19 and 25 when I was in great shape, I've been overweight. Confessions of a Fat Guy is an autobiography of what it's like to be in a world that sees overweight people differently. They assume we're lazy, out of control, and too sensitive to a tease or a joke about fat people. I'm a big guy. By that I mean tall and big. I look like an offensive lineman in football. I'm 6'2" and have a big frame. My lowest weight as an adult was 220 pounds and I was pretty thin. I worked at a hospital and had a lot of interested nurses for dates. None of them were interested when I was heavy, but now I could have some fun. I enjoyed being thin. But it didn't last. The weight gain started again and before long; I was back to my original weight. The teasing was rough in high school and grade school, but it was much more painful as an adult. This is my story. I'm publishing it mainly for overweight adolescents and teenagers. The overweight adults will also benefit from it, but if we can stop it early when the child starts to gain weight, we can save them a lot of agony by helping them eat right and exercise. This book shows my path, but I think it's also important for anyone who has struggled with weight.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
