In a past interview Jim's dad said he was going to run for president of the United States. Jim's dad knew he would not win with his current weight of 578 pounds. So he went on a strict diet. He went from 11 to 3 meals a day. He also fired his maid, forcing himself to do housework. Jim's dad also acquired the services of former lover Richard Simmons. With Richard Simmons' workout plan Jim's Dad began to lose weight. In just four short weeks Jim's dad went down to 190 pounds. It seemed like a miracle.
Then Jim's dad received the news that he did not have enough money to run for president. This depressed Jim's dad. He began to eat large amounts of fried dough and Oreo cookies. Within two weeks Jim's dad had regained all his lost weight. Currently Jim's fat dad weighs 810 pounds.
