		<description><![CDATA[I used to weigh about 175. Last season, I played 17 games - 15 of them with lower body injuries because my legs weren&#039;t used to the weight. Lost 20 lbs in 6 weeks and managed to play 33 games - none of them with injury. Over a long time, the excess weight combined with the impact of running will affect Sandoval&#039;s knees and he&#039;ll end up with multiple reconstructions because he doesn&#039;t have the damn self-discipline to stay off the sweet stuff.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had issues with my weight as well but it started for me right at my 30&#039;s. I spent eight years hovering around 240ish which is about 50 lbs over what the army wanted me at. I went to see a dietician several times during that stretch. I ended up having to change my diet several times until i got it matched with my physical activity level. We ran 10k twice a week and i did it three times more on my own. As long as i held a steady pt regimen my diet was fine, but if my physical activity fluctuated because i was tired i had to cut back hard on my diet, that was the hardest thing for me to learn, tailoring mny diet to my activity. I look at a baseball season and it looks a lot like what one would go through if they had days of inactivity followed by sporadic hard exercise. Pablo sandoval&#039;s sundae comes to mind. That big kung fu sundae reminds me every guy i ever knew in the military when we came back from the field. As soon as we were released the guys cut out for their favorite restraunts. For most it was usually a double or triple burger but a lot hit the desserts like pablo did too. Tldr If pablo keeps trying he will get his weight under control but he does need a bit of support to be able to do it and it is not an overnight issue.]]></description>
