If you’ve put on as much or more weight than I had… If you’ve become as fat as your dad (or ladies your mom), or are as unhealthy, as sick, or as tired as your parents… or if, God forbid, either of your parents has passed on from poor health… you still have time to change your life forever!įat As My Dad isn’t your average diet book per se. If you’re over the age of 29, and this sounds similar to your life and you see yourself in this same situation or headed in that direction, Fat As My Dad is the book to help you change your life. It’s hard to believe… but it’s absolutely true. Basically I’d gained an entire other person in weight.
How in the world did I gain 146 pounds in just 27 years? That’s an average weight gain of just 5 pounds a year. At 18, when I graduated high school, I weighed a whopping 136 pounds.

And we like to think that there is always someone weirder.
It’s hard to write a synopsis for this audio when all I want to do is pull up a chair and start sharing with you the funny moments that had me laughing out loud… “There is no difference between a four-year old eating a taco and throwing a taco on the floor.” “We are all a little weird. An awesome listen or read for any parent who feels they may be outnumbered in their home or even for people like me who have no Jim shares the moments in his and his wife’s life of what it is like to try to maneuver through life in New York with 5 children and no car and taxi’s will not take more than 4 passengers in a vehicle.
😀ĭad Is Fat is Jim Gaffigan’s hilarious stories on what it is like to be a father of 5 (yes 5!) children. Why I wanted to listen to this audio: Heard a little hype about this on Facebook from friends I trust… thought I would give it a try.
