Jim Barrett has always been the token fat ass for many years. Peaking at 270 lbs, Jim decided to start a diet at his new active job in August 2006. The diet quickly disappeared but Jim did remain active, losing 10 lbs over the next year to August 2007. In late August that year, Jim restarted his diet and stuck to it, and progressively shed the weight that had been with him for so long. His target weight was 220 lbs, marking a total loss of 50 lbs, which by itself would be a serious accomplishment. 220 came easy for Jim, so he lowered it to a number he's always wanted to attain, 199. As of May 2008, Jim reached that mark and has kept it off ever since. Some were startled to know that Jim Barrett actually has a neck and some basic muscle mass, which were previously hidden under the layers of fat that had covered Jim prior. As of June 28, 2009, Jimbo has kept to a steady exercise routine of weightlifting and cardio exercises when not at work; as a result Jim seems to look like a normal human being instead of resembling the common toothpick.
