Hey, that was uncalled for. He's been taking weekly Pilates classes and never eats before bedtime. There will be no fat shaming here. At least he's trying.

It's nice to see someone getting excited about the possibilities this kind of tech will afford us. So many people seem incredibly jaded at the amazing progress we're making. This is awesome. "And it is only going to get better." Exactly!
