My dad is officially overweight. His belly jiggles with every step, and his arms are about as thick as my legs. He also has gout and high blood pressure. He works for a food company, and he's ALWAYS eating in restaurants with his boss.
From what I've discovered, he's a compulsive "chain-eater". He's also distressingly LAZY. He's hooked to the internet about 10/7, but he says he need's it cuz it's "important."
What can I do to make him get off of his lazy BUTT and make him healthier?

Just don't eat the same food as he is eating or spend as much time on the internet of you will look the same way. Tell your dad that if should go for a daily 40 minute walk every day regardless of the weather. He should also quit eating out completely. There is nothing healthy to eat in a resturant unless you are very good at picking food items. If he already has gout and high blood pressure, then he should know better. There is nothing you can say. My mom died of high blood pressure. I make sure I ate least eat healthy now.

Ask him to play outside with you... Or confront him about it... It is sweet that you are thinking about him! You hog the internet and make him do something else... Break a window and get him to fix it...
That last one, I was just kidding about...
Sorry if I didn't help...
