Mr. Fitzpatrick has given2 much attention3 to his “Weight reduction”(减轻体重) programs4. Just last year, for example, when he was5 the main6 speaker7 at the company8 dinner, he said9 he put on twenty pounds10 instead11 of losing12 thirty he promised13 he would14.

The year before that, he joined a health15 club16. He exercised every day and ate17 less18 food. At the end of three months, however19, he began making excuses about why he couldn’t go there more often.

After the health club failed20 to work, he joined Weight Watchers but stopped going21 because he was the only man there. And he hated22 following23 any of the diet24 programs. Fitz’s latest25 idea is to join a walking club to “walk off” the weight.
