A 15-month-old child in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia weighs 55 pounds and is gaining nearly 5 pounds a month, according to a Local 6 News report.

Luka Meliksishvili has been rapidly gaining weight since his birth, according to his parents. He already carries the weight of a 6-year-old child, Local 6 News reported Monday night.

Luka's mother, Eka Meliksishvili, said doctors in Tbilisi have examined her son and advised her not to be too concerned. They said Luka may be able to shed his excess weight as he grows older.

That's just wrong.

That's just wrong.

What, wrong to post it or wrong to let him get that way?

I heard Bama, UT & UGA are already recruiting him.

[TitanTiger 20,484]

LOL! Wrong to let him get that way. I mean, damn, anyone over there ever heard of a salad?

My little Katie-bug will be three months old on June 10, and she already weighs 15 pounds - she looks like the Michelin man, but cuter. By way of comparison, my three year old niece is 30 pounds. But supposedly this is not a problem until she is two.

THIS kid, however, has a SERIOUS problem. Makes you wonder what the heck he is eating!!!

The Croatian born toddler waddles a 5.3 40 yard dash. Forrest Davis lists his favorites as Alabama, UAT and THE University. Was originally given a 2.5 rating by Davis when he announced he had a good camp at Auburn this summer and was considering the Tigers. After his visit to the Capstone and several Krispee Kreme Buy A Dozen, Get The Second Dozen Free Coupons, provided by Joe Keins, Meliksishvili gave a verbal to the tradition-rich Tide. With the verbal, Davis now has "Mili" rated as a 5 star lineman. Davis says that if he improves his footwork, he'll probably get significant playing time for the Tide next year.

Needs to hit the books a little harder but Davis thinks Bama has someone available to take the upcoming ACT for him if grades continue to be a problem. Will most likely room with Ray Hudson as Coach Mike Shula feels that someone needs to "Show him the rope"

I can't find the link to this story, but I'll keep searching and get back to you.

My little niece Alli will be 3 months June 12th she weighs probably about 13 pounds and is heavy as hell.......she is loaded with rolls and eats constantly. How does a baby become 55 lbs like that???? They must have skipped th baby bottles and went straight to ice cream and pizza with a side of coke....

There are diseases that cause this kind of weight gain.

[channonc 466]

My thoughts exactly, tu21.

I asked DKW if we could pass him off as a 4th grader! Get an early start on the training!

He was only about 34 or 35 lbs then. And he most definitely is an Tiger. The only tiger worth being, right?
