    Days turned into weeks, and Christopher noticed his clothes fitting a bit tighter. He was gaining weight, but he couldn't resist the food.

    One evening, Christopher confessed his dilemma to Bob. He loved the food, but he was worried about his increasing weight.

    Bob laughed heartily at this. 'Life is too short to worry about weight,' he said, patting his own round belly.
