Let him be.
murder him
>>40493893
But he does need to fix his diet

I want him to become a better version of himself, after all he is pre-diabetic.
>>40493893 Tell his diabetes is gonna hit like a cannonball

gym really won't do anything for his weight, weight loss is like 90% diet
if hes gonna eat himself to death nothing you can really do. that motivation has to come from within
Sorry Nu-Asuka, he's right.
You probably can't do much else to help him, he has to start doing shit on his own.
Sidenote; I'd love it if one of my friends came to the gym with me.

Here's what you. You tell him to:
1. To go for a walk every day - every day, it can be freezing, raining etc - doesn't matter, he needs to walk for at least an hour every day ( start with 30 minutes and build up from there ) go with him if you have to. Also tell him to cut out all soda from his diet
2. Two weeks later to cut out all confectionery - sweets, candy etc
3. Two weeks later to cut out all fast food - this is when you teach your lard ass friend how to cook
4. Two weeks later to cut out bread and starchy carbs.
And keep eating like that and keep walking. If this doesn't work cut your ties and abandon him.

Can't help someone who doesn't want help.
If he wanted to lose weight he would have.

If you drag him to the gym he will just make you miserable the entire time
The annoying thing is for someone that fat lifting and running is actually dangerous/pointless. Cardio is going to fuck up his kneews and lifting to intensely will put too much stress on his heart.
He needs to sort his diet out and just go about his life as normal until he drops at least 50 or so pounds. It will pretty much sweat off him if he starts eating at a normal level. But he's obviously got no motivation. Doubt you can really help him OP.
