Looking for Former Fat Guy Fitness? Different guy. Same three words.

August 29, 2026 by

If you searched for Former Fat Guy Fitness and landed here, you found the original. I am Rob Cooper. I weighed 475 pounds in 1989, lost 288 of them, and have been the former fat guy online since 1996 and at this address since 1998.

The fellow with “Fitness” on the end is someone else, and he seems like a good guy. I have written a page about who is who, and an open invitation for him to get in touch.

Where Did You Go?

I've went poof on this website in about 2007. Frankly, I just got sick of writing. I've been on an extended break. Got married, been traveling, working on other people's websites and not my own. I became fascinated with permaculture and have turned my yard into a food forest. I'll be back soon with new direction for this site.

Website VERY Broken

Be advised. This website is very very broken. It started as raw hand coded HTML, then progressed to Microsoft Active Server Pages and then was on a combined PHP (Wordpress) and .asp compiler and then that ended. There are a LOT of broken links and very odd content layouts. I've decided to fix it all and restore this website to it's full glory and then move forward with new thoughts. But it won't be quick. - Rob, Dec 2023.
