Jonah Lomu IS a professional athlete! 6' 5", 19 stones and can run 100
metres in 10.8 seconds. This man has had a kidney transplant but still
keeps himself in shape and has just signed for Cardiff Blues, some of
the toughest rugby out there. Let's keep a sensible perspective here,
it doesn't matter how much you gloss over it, a BMI of 50 with high
blood pressure is not good. The body sooner or later is going to tell
you this in someway or another. If this sounds rude, blunt or
controversial I am not going to apologise.

Good luck.
