I’m sensing all of the eyes that will rush to this article with flabbergasted looks. I understand. I would be quite curious by what I mean too. So, why don’t I start at the beginning (names changed to protect the innocent):
Philip was a friend of mine. A very lonely man. Not too long ago he actually visited one of those Russian bride sites. I don’t know why he did it, but he did. Here’s an example of such a site: Dating Russian Brides Online.
Philip managed to meet a woman there named Natasha (remember, names are changed). They actually hit it off. I was quite surprised. She ended up coming over here and moved in with him. This was back in Louisiana before I moved to Kentucky, so it’s been about 2 years. Well, yesterday I got a call from him and found out he’s lost over 30 pounds. Wanna know how? Read on.
See, the two of them fell in love after she moved in. At first it was for companionship but then later the love bloomed. I was actually quite surprised about a year ago when they got married, but they seem to be truly in love. Now, although she loved him, she didn’t like his health. He was overweight and had tons of heart conditions. This is why he had such a hard time meeting a woman to begin with. Well, being a Russian woman, it seems as if she decided to take over his health. She’s had him do tons of work around the house that he normally used to pay other people to do. She makes him walk around the block 5 times every day. She doesn’t take “no” for an answer.
So, when I say that you can lose weight by marrying a Russian woman, I don’t really mean a Russian woman. I mean a woman who cares enough to be strong with you until you get yourself healthier. She truly wants their lives to be long and together. Natasha has impressed me. I never knew it was possible for a man to find love through one of those types of sites, but now I know anything is possible. And I also know that having a strong woman helps you with anything you need to do in life.
Of course, that I already knew. My wife is the same way. She would kill me if I stepped outside of my diet.

Sounds like he found a keeper. And at first I thought you meant they would make you exercise a different way…
