The Real Fat Poo - About The Author in his own words 
As a teenager I was extremely overweight. I grew up in a Takeaway Roadhouse in Tasmania, Australia. Constantly I would stuff myself full of deep fried food, ice cream and sugary drinks on a daily basis. At my biggest was 110 Kgs which is massive considering I am only 170cm on a good day. Kids would call me "Fat S%#*" amongst other things, hence the title Fat Poo. When I turned 18 I left home running away to Sydney - 2000 Kilometres from Tasmania. 

Combining a harsh diet of starvation with excessive cardio I lost a huge 53kgs in a short period of time. Hooray!..... No Hooray. I didn't know it but I was living a recurring cycle of eating disorders. Throughout my twenties I kept the weight off dangerously - while simultaneously spiralling into a state of depression inspired mood swings. After many lost jobs, failed relationships and destroyed friendships I realised that a new healthy lifestyle was needed to maintain my sanity - let alone those few left around me. I succeeded through educating myself on healthy eating and exercise. 

Fifteen years later I returned to Tasmania to tell my story. "Fat Poo" is my satirical inspiring tale of how I went from obesity, lost weight the wrong way, alienated all those around me, and eventually taught myself and implemented the skills on how to lead a healthy fulfilling lifestyle.

Enjoy my journey.

Ratings and reviews

This book changed my life. 1 year ago my wife left me, she took the kids and the house, leaving me with nothing. I was on the streets, begging for the bare minimum and slowly I got something. But I decided instead of buying food or water, I buy this book written by the legendary writer Peter Crumpton, that was the moment my life changed. The short and simple story had a deep meaning, and I felt connected to the little poop guy, I wanted to do what he did. I started working hard, eating better and finding jobs, climbing my ways through the ranks of a job. And now I am the boss at that company, living life to its fullest. Thank you Peter Crumpton and thank you for writing this book

This book not only awakened my ninth chakra, the chakra of poop, but it taught me to understand the world and nature in different ways. Mystifying.

Never in my life have i been so impacted by a reading. This changes the way i think about everything
