    ___________________
    A professional poker player won a $1 million bet against his friends after he lost 70 pounds of body fat in six months.
    Walter Fisher, 36, weighed in at 245 pounds eight months ago, chalking off his weight gain to a string of losses at the poker table that left him $500,000 in debt, ABC News reported.

    “The weight piled on,” he said. “I was looking in the mirror and I didn’t know who this person was.”

    Fisher had come off a winning streak in 2016, when he won $97,000 from playing blackjack.

    “I hit the zone and just felt it,” Fisher told the New York Post.

    Five and a half months later, Fisher got his weight down to 175 pounds and took home $600,000 in cash.

    Fisher, however, said serving as a role model to his younger nephews and nieces was a bigger motivator than money for losing weight.

    “I wanted to be around my nephews and nieces and … give them .. the uncle they should look up to, not somebody who is a mess,” Fisher said. “Money shouldn’t be the motivating factor.”

    Fisher said he was able to pay off his debt and is now making it his goal to stay fit.

    “To have gone from an absolute low to where I am now is an achievement and a transformation,” Fisher said.

    Thoughts??

    I lost about 200 pounds of ugly fat about a year and a half ago. In one day. At the court house.

    Ok, I think you know where I’m going with this….
