Im putting together a "boot camp" fat camp for OSA sufferers.
Eric,
Fat is the new choose-your-own pejorative. Different ethnicities, different religions used to get it. Now fatties do.
Funny thing, my apnea manifested during the time I was losing 180 pounds.

Unfortunately age strongly correlates with sleep apnea.

Might be of interest to you that I've seen people with anorexia have sleep apnea, too.

Hi,
Same here…when I lost weight, my sleep disorder got worse. I still proudly use my CPAP machine, now weighing 165 lbs and having just ran a 3 hour 44 minute marathon at age 51. If it is boot camp that he wants, then let's bring it on!
