Summary: The world's fattest man has begun strict diet after he heard from the doctor that he would be unable to reach 50 unless he loses his weight. His weight is 368 kg and waistline is 182 cm in 2001. Actually he was eating up 20,000 calories everyday which are like instant food or sugar-laden foods. Now he sticks to his diet strictly by eating 1,500 to 2,000 calories which are the average calory that an ordinary adult takes everyday.

Opinion: It's really amazing to have this kind of man in this world. I have seen some fat guys but they were nothing comparing to this guy. I guess to make the weight 368 kg, one should eat and eat foods which have high calories and do not exercise at all but just lie down or sit down. I am not sure with the way but I think it's really hard to make one's weight like that. Anyway, I am positive on this matter because he's challenging himself using the way dieting. Actually what he faces now is death. Unless he loses his weight, he would no longer live when he reaches 50. As the man confessed, this is his motivation to do the severe and difficult diet. It'll be very difficult. No one can imagine the pain but he's challenging himself.

Challenging myself is what I hate. That's why I always tend to get the average scores from my tests and never challenge. However, now I have a different mind. I am just challenging myself to fulfill something by my own efforts. I know that studying surrounded by many freedoms will be very much hard but I really want to challenge myself so that in the future, I would not avoid any challenge when I face a big problem. I hope this guy and at the same time I would be successful in each challenge.
