Five Years Ago I Was a Fat Dumb Man



Hell, I don't know if it was five years ago.



When was it that I realize my ass was fat? Every fatty knows this. I wasn't always fat. I watched too much damn television and drank a hell of a lot of beer. I ate at shit restaurants.

I worked in construction doing any damn thing they asked. I had to get up early to get to the job. My tools would get stolen.

Anyway, I got my ass in shape by walking and not eating as much shit. It took me a few years to lose 50 pounds. I walk everywhere. No damn beer anymore. I quit all the bad shit like cigars and dessert.

I started school too. So I am graduating with a degree in high school education which is funny because I lived with just a high school diploma until now.

I thought I was going to be a teacher but I don't like kids like I thought. I went to a job fair and now I have interviews going at several companies. I will make more money than I ever made. It isn't that I will be rich but if you ever lived hand to mouth then you know what I mean. I might move.

Somebody out there is wondering if they are too old get their ass in shape or get their life together.

I am not perfect and I have other shit I need to deal with. Five years ago I was 54 having a pity party. I'm 59 and in five years everything turned around because I decided I didn't like my life. I am healthier and not making any damn excuses.

So are you an old dumb fat man? Move your ass.
