He is overweight.

I have a tendency to overeat, so I'm somewhat overweight. So, to get me to lose weight, my dad, who's experienced with this, started me on a diet. In this diet, neither my dad nor I will eat breakfast. It's been hard at first, but if I keep going, I'll get used to it and then I'll be able to do it just fine.
