hahaha the thing is that he had a bad time while he was growing up, he used to sell papers in the street while he was a kid and supported his family... and was really poor... but he worked his ass off and had some good luck and now owns various companies and we do pretty fucking well

he told me he already fasted enough when he was a kid....

Tell him he won't live to continue enjoying his success if he keeps neglecting his health.

Dude you can't get an old guy to change his ways.  They call you gay when you say salad.  Just steal his razor and every one he buys after that.  Then tell him if he want to stop scratching to eat better.

that's the same mentality your dad has.  he's choosing to enjoy overeating over his health.   Everyone that isn't poor has that choice.

2 years ago, my dad was having back/knee/rotator surgery following an accident, dealing with a benign brain tumor, and spending 22 hours a day in his room depressed.  I had a son and it changed his life forever.  He now exercises, runs a small business, and they're actually becoming foster parents.  Having a little rugrat around totally brightened him up, gave him a reason to be.

I'd say you impregnate a girl and give him a grandson.

My Best Friend's Dad was out of shape and his two buddies made him a bet that they could lose more weight than him and the losers had to pay for the winner for a trip to mexico. They would phone him telling him how much weight they were losing which spurred him on even more.

Turns out they werent losing a pound, they just wanted to see him get healthier and were gonna take him to mexico anyways lol. He lost like 35 pounds.

Find some kim kardasian looking girl in the club.  drug and impregnate her.  Then, who knows... plant some dope and a gun on her and call in a tip.  She'll get caught up, you'll get custody, and you give baby to dad to raise.  problem solved.

Smack him with a stick and let him chase you around for awhile....do this until he catches you, then you'll know he's in good enough shape.

As best you can, you need to police his diet.  If you live under the same roof, try to have meals with him and make sure they are always healthy meals.  Do the shopping and cooking yourself if you have to.  Ease healthy choices into his diet until they are the primary things he consumes.  

--A glass of orange or grapefruit juice with breakfast every morning for example...

--for cereal serve Total or Product 19 (each have the 100% of the recommended daily allowance)... or oatmeal.

--make sure he gets two servings of vegetables with each meal.  If you father is stubborn you may have to do all of this somewhat surreptitiously.  If he claims not to like one or more fruits or vegetables find out which ones he does like and make sure they are always part of your meals.  Make a small salad a part of your meals, served as an appetizer for example.  Try different kinds of dressing (there are so many) until you find ones that he likes and make sure they are always in the kitchen.  I hate vegetables, but my cook found a dressing I like and now, I would eat a bowl of rocks if you put my favorite dressing on it.  You have to be creative and persistent.  

Give him disapproving looks when he makes bad food choices... applaud and praise him when he makes good choices.  Everyone responds to positive reinforcement.  Again, you have to be creative and persistent.

For exercise, you need to get him in the habit of doing something like walking the dog, riding a bike, or walking around the block after dinner.  Make a habit of it (join him if you have to in order to get him going).
