If the operator is light and the patient an overweight adult, he can utilize over 80 per cent of his weight by raising his knees from the ground and supporting himself entirely on his toes and the heels of his hands, the latter properly placed on the ends of the floating ribs of the patient. In this manner he can work as effectively as a heavy man.
Tartarin bent to pick it up, but as he was somewhat overweight and much encumbered by his weapons, the operation took a little time... When he rose, the garland pressed to his heart, the little Moor had disappeared. Sleep, lions of the Atlas! Sleep tranquilly in your lairs amongst the aloes and the cactus! It wil be some time before Tartarin de Tarascon comes to slaughter you.
He began to smear the toast. He had come to claim her. How could she refuse him just because he was about thirty pounds overweight? Geoffrey finished his meal. He took out a cigarette. There was a new expression in his eyes now, a tender expression. For the first time since they had met Maud seemed to catch a far-off glimpse of the man she had loved in Wales.
Since that day I've pulled off many fights for him, and they've brought dogs from all over the province to have a go at me; but up to that night none, under thirty pounds, had ever downed me. But that night, so soon as they carried me into the ring, I saw the dog was overweight, and that I was no match for him. It was asking too much of a puppy. The Master should have known I couldn't do it.

He was muttering under his breath as the guards locked Doc's legs to a seat and left. "All right," Chris ordered. "Up ship!" "I tell you we're overweight with you.
She had spoken with a promptitude that affected him of a sudden as almost glib; but he himself paused with the overweight of all he meant, and she meanwhile went on. "Did you try?" "I hadn't even a chance." Kate maintained her wonderful manner, the manner of at once having it all before her and yet keeping it all at its distance. "She wouldn't see you?" "Not after your friend had been with her."
"Uh!... How much 'd he dress?" asked Scattergood Baines, moving in his especially reinforced armchair until it creaked its protest. "Eight hunderd and forty-three accordin' to Newt Patterson's scales." "Which hain't never been knowed to err on the side of overweight," said Scattergood, dryly.
Dodd, already half dead with terror for her son, saw and knew her husband: for all about him it was as light as day. What terror! what joy! what gratitude! what pride! what a tempest of emotions! But her fears were not ended: Edward, not to overweight the ladder, went dangling by his hands along the rope towards the tree.
He always delivered his hay in the twilight, and when it swung the beam, he used to say, 'Come, now, I must charge you for overweight. Now, captain, have you got such an honest dog as that?" "I would have claimed him, that I would, if such a clever dog were weighed to me. But, sir, you have got the better of me. What a man for stories you be, for sure! Come in to our fire-place."
