With Halloween right around the corner, we’re at the start of the annual Winter Get Fat season (comprised of Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s, Super Bowl, Valentine’s Day — combined with all those weekly college and pro sports that require copious amounts of beer and wings every week).

So it should come as no surprise that fitness companies are already figuring out what they need to do in order to help us stay fit and healthy — or at the very least, get us back on the healthy road for the rest of the year come January 1st.

(do you hear that kids?  Let’s say that again — “smokers do not make better lovers”)

We know what you’re thinking.  Web Watch, how could you possible know this?  Well, we’d like to say that it’s due to our vast knowledge and personal experience… but we’d rather just point you to this REPORT ON SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION and SMOKING.

Yeah, that’s a lot of woman.  And we’re sure that Web Watch readers are asking the same thing — when you weigh 600lbs, what can you do to earn a living? It certainly can’t be easy manuevering around a workplace when you’re that big.

Well, you could do what Donna did.
