It is possible to be "fat but fit," new research being presented at the annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Vienna, Austria (September 15-19) suggests.

It felt real - like a second skin, like air thickening into water. I wasn't counting the hours anymore; I was living inside them.
