for some inane reason i was browsing through some old photo galleries, when lo and behold, i found robert williamson pre-slimfast. im actually espn didn't do a "nuts" feature about him losing that kind of weight.

I can safely say that's the weirdest thing I've seen this month

GSN actually did a nuts segment on this recently. Quite the transformation there. Surprised that I hadn't heard about it until then.

If there was ever an advertisement for getting your stomach stapled that's it, wow. Wasn't Howard Lederer really huge like that before too?

Howard was hefty enough (in addition to being tall!) to be nicknamed "Bubba." His weight loss was at least in part due to switching to vegetarianism. Now lacking the heft for "Bubba," his current nickname is "Bub."

Mostly due to gastric bypass.
