Alonzo Bland is spending the holiday season at a Chinese fat farm．The Green Bay, Wis., resident（居民）will miss his family, but otherwise he’s not complaining．
“It s a little drastic（过激）to come to China，”admits Bland，33，who used to be a couch potato and addict to KFC food．“But drastic is what I needed。at 646 pounds．”That was Bland’s weight when his China adventure began in May, after winning a competition by China Connection，a firm that promotes traditional Chinese medicine．The prize：a year at China’s top weight—loss center, the Aimin（Love the People）Fat Reduction Hospital．
