He looks like he did when he first came up. Amazing how dropping a few pounds can take the years off. Additionally, its astonishing how much losing weight can relieve stress on the joints. As most people here know, weight gain isn't always good, whether its fat or muscle. It depends on the profession and the use of the additional mass. Those generalities are a given. However, it is seldom emphasized how much just an additional 5-7 pounds can have on your joints and interal systems in general. For instance, how many people know that being just 8 pounds overweight can lead to snoring? This fact demonstrates that weight does not just gather on the outer most layers of our physics, but rather has significant impact on our internal systems. If a person's build is such that it cannot accommodate additional mass (again, fat or muscle), his or her joints will suffer. I have experienced this first hand in my shoulder and was amazed at the results of losing weight. (Snoring was also aleviated). If Kerry has lost weight and can maintain it (not an easy thing the older you get), I think there may be light at the end of the tunnel for us fans who have pulled for Wood all of these years. I hope the best for him. As long as you have an 8 pound epiglottis.
