Father and son unite in war against weight

Tian Shiguang, 53, and his son Hua, 29, undergo cupping therapy as part of a weight-loss program they are doing together in Changchun city, Northeast China's Jilin province. The combined weight of the father and son is over 350 kilograms. After Tian Hua kept getting knocked back from jobs due to his excessive weight, his father decided they both needed to do something about it. They left their hometown in East China's Anhui province, about 500 kilometers away, to take part in the program that combines healthy diet and exercise in Changchun. Tian Hua said his dream is to become the family's bread winner after losing weight. [Photo: Ecns.cn]
