Harry Knowles has - shocker! - diabetes and FEELS THE BURN

[The Fake Shemp]

And I got diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Which resulted in me buying workout clothes, vitamins, a gym membership and hiring a personal trainer to whip my ass for not talking all you good folks advice for years.

Tonight was the my first work out. I pedaled for 20 minutes – followed by about an hour and ten minutes on the various weightlifting equipment doing reps. God, I forgot how much I loved a great work out in a gym. I feel the burn and the aches – but I’m also hydrating and enjoying warm showers. I’m following the diets and my wife is joining me on this journey – but just as many would feel this Diabetes thing was bad news, I feel that unfortunately it’s exactly what I needed to make the rest of the changes I needed – to add urgency to it all. In a way, I love this.

Harry <3 diabetes!

You're next

I'm actually surprised he didn't have diabetes previously.  His bloods gotta be thicker then maple syrup already.

...so there was a buff harry knowles in the past?

If we're going by the Harry Knowles standard for 'great workout', than I guess we could also go by the Harry Knowles standard for 'buff', in which case yes there was.

He probably peeled an orange and felt satisfied for the day.

[Eel O'Brian]

that dude is every cliche about fandom sprung to life, i have known guys just like him all my life, he probably really believes he used to work out in some fantasy setting of gnomes and faeries that is only accessible in the window of time between presses of the snooze button

i would bet any amount of money he hasn't even watched 75% of the obscure movies he raves over

he and his father used to peddle movie memorabilia and comics and other general nerdery, and i can state with conviction that every one of those people are crooks in one way or another

[Bloodwake]

Wow.


I'm speechless.

[FlameOfCallandor]

  I see Harry Knowels every now and then around town. That fat ass probably couldnt even fit through a gym door. He's disgusting. He tells people the reason he cant walk is because some movie memorabilia fell on his legs. Give me a fucking break. I have seen him get out of of his fat ass chair before. He is just too fucking fat to walk,

[FlameOfCallandor]

His wife gained about 20 pounds within the months they got married

[Rman]

Not surprising as obesity is a precursor to diabetes.  Best of luck to him.

[Madrun Badrun]

[FlameOfCallandor]

I like how his dad has to push him around.

[Phoenix Dark]

That's his wife to the left right? Holy shit she gained weight. I bet he's transmitted around 30 pounds to her through osmosis while having sex.

[Shuri]

wasnt his wife pretty cute.

[Flannel Boy]

She's a moon and he's Jupiter.

Is there any reason he doesn't get one of the variety of available weight loss surgeries?  He certainly has the money.  Does he just lack the self-control to do the prep for the surgery, which involves proving to doctors that you can follow a basic fucking diet?

[Phoenix Dark]

My neighbor had that surgery a few months ago. Now she's fatter than ever, and extremely sick apparently. Same thing happened to one of my aunts, who had the surgery then would basically eat a cake every fucking day courtesy of her ex husband, who was trying to kill her; she's got diabetes

If he has the money he doesnt seem to act like it. He always wears those tacky t-shirts or Hawaiian shirts and like I said his dad always pushes him around.

[Phoenix Dark]

How does his dad look while pushing him around? That must be embarrassing; sure he's fat, but I refuse to believe that he's unable to fucking walk around

[FlameOfCallandor]

His dad is like a 70 year old version of him. Heavy set and has a beard.

I assumed those were generally just the only sort of items that came in his size.

well, those, and boy scout tents

[FancyFeast]

[Cormacaroni]

It took diabetes to make this corpulent whale realize he was fat? Does he have a fucking funhouse mirror at home or what

fat people

I thought you could only gain weight if you drank a lot of beverages with high calories? Anyway it seems people have this surgery pass their addiction to something else like alcohol. /Oprah

[Tauntaun]

He looks like Devin from Strapping Young Lad

iirc she had some hemorrhage problems due to all the shit she was stuffing into her new stomach. You'd think that the possibility of death would convince people to take the diet seriously
