"A Life Apart: The Toll of Obesity"

After losing almost 300 pounds, Hector Garcia Jr. no longer needed a walker, but his knee pain was still debilitating. He continued to walk laps in the pool up until his knee surgery. Garcia was not always bowlegged but as he put on weight as a teenager, his knees were most affected.
