What if you're a really fat guy? I want to teach overseas but my weight problem is really a worry for me in traveling and working overseas. (It's a major problem in my life in general of course)


I am. 5'9" and about 240. Never had a problem and passed every medical with flying colors. In my pre-fat guy days I was somewhat athletic so my heart and blood pressure are both pretty good. I've seen quite a few foreigners even fatter than me here. You should be OK.
