Being overweight can cause a lot of health problems. In order to help the whole family lose some weight, a Chinese man put on 10 kilos and then began to get thinner. And their photos are causing quite a stir (轰动)on the Internet.

According to the report, the man named Ding Guoliang wanted to accompany(陪伴)his 53­year­old father on his journey of losing weight. He came up with a special idea—gaining his own weight first and then losing it again.

In the end, the 32­year­old photographer (摄影师)succeeded because his father, who had an excessive (过度的)drinking problem, ended up losing 20 kilos of weight in six months. Of course, Ding didn't forget to record their special journey. Photos of the father and his son showed their amazing half-year changes in their bodies.

In the photos taken before they started exercising, both men carried around heavy bellies. But after getting into the habit of exercising, both of them look quite different. Not only did the two men lose weight, but they also encouraged their wives to join them.

According to another report, Ding's father had been upset and sad because of the failure in business. He used to spend his days drinking and reading novels at home. As a result, he got heavier and heavier. Thanks to his son, he has become confident and healthy again.

21. Why did Ding Guoliang put on 10 kilos?
