Cucumber Favorite Exercise? kickboxing, cross-trainer, rowing Healthy Lifestyle Goal? To eventually be at 140 lbs with muscle tone, and to run my first 5k race.	Amazing... Here are more pictures of his progress (including loose skin): http://www.hemmy.net/2007/07/02/david-smit...ight-lost-story I came across his story ages ago but was reminded of it today when I saw this: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=390964. The guy in the pic is David Smith, not Salvatore Ferranti, and I don't know why they would use David's before pic there. It's a horrible thing to do and it's misleading.
