My dad'ss BMI is 36 !! Does that mean he needs to lose weight? He's 6 feet and 267 pounds!! He wears XXXL clothes and I'm scared for his health! He told me he hasn't even jogged or gone to a gym in 28 years. And hes 45! He won't even buy dumbells or tredmills or anything! I'm afraid he'll die. And he WILL NOT excersize! He's had counceling but he tells everyone that he has no TIME to excersize because he's obsessed with working! And even on Christmas he was doing work while everyone was eating and laughing! I dont know what to do!
