messages.content: Andy weighed 156 + 36 = <<156+36=192>>192 pounds after growing taller.
  An eighth of his weight is 1/8 x 192 = <<1/8*192=24>>24 pounds.
  Over the next 3 months, Andy lost 24 x 3 = <<24*3=72>>72 pounds.
  He now weighs 192 - 72 = <<192-72=120>>120 pounds.
  Andy weighs 156 - 120 = <<156-120=36>>36 pounds less than at the beginning of the year.
