Kevin Smith's heavy breaking point
When you put on a couple of pounds, it's easy to ignore it. But eventually, if you keep putting on weight, there will come a point at which you know things just have to change. Maybe it's a depressing shopping trip, or a photograph. Or, if you're Kevin Smith, it's when you break a toilet.The director/writer/actor has been conscious of his size for some time now -- his doctor called him morbidly obese, which is sure to get anyone's mind on losing weight, but it was after breaking a toilet that he really realized that he needed to do something.
"I'm going away for a while to concentrate on myself," said Smith, "to save my life." Once he's done doing press for Zack and Miri Make a Porno, he plans to get away and focus on counting calories and losing a bunch of pounds. It sounds like he's in a bad place, but he's got a plan, and I hope he's got plenty of friends to help him through it -- we all know support makes a big difference!
