FATMAN HAS 'SCOOP' ON CONTROLLING DIABETES: Grammy winner has upper hand on disease with his 'Scoop of Greens' product.
“Because I’m a young man,” he explained. “I thought, ‘I’m healthy. I feel fine; I feel great. I’m still walking, I’m still moving – this is not happening to me.’ I didn’t take it seriously, but then little things were happening: I was getting blurred vision. I went and saw a specialist. He said, ‘You’re in deep trouble if you don’t get yourself together.’”
*Though his livelihood depends on listeners, Grammy-winning, famed rough voiced, hip hop promoter and radio personality Fatman Scoop wasn’t always a good listener. The New York music man suffered from symptoms of diabetes, but didn’t pay much attention until a friend’s intervention.
“I was diagnosed around ’96, ‘97 and honestly, I didn’t even take it seriously. But I had a moment of clarity last summer when my executive assistant on my TV show brought his brother in and his brother only had three toes. I was like, ‘Oh my God!’ and that’s when I said I gotta really start jumping on this and really start taking this seriously.”
Scoop admitted to EUR’s Lee Bailey that he ignored the numbness in his hands and legs for a while before listening to what his body was trying to tell him. In fact, he pretty much refused to believe that anything was wrong.
“Because I’m a young man,” he explained. “I thought, ‘I’m healthy. I feel fine; I feel great. I’m still walking, I’m still moving – this is not happening to me.’ I didn’t take it seriously, but then little things were happening: I was getting blurred vision. I went and saw a specialist. He said, ‘You’re in deep trouble if you don’t get yourself together.’”
Scoop described that while he wasn’t in terrible shape, as he says, he was dealing with numbness and blurry vision. At first, he thought he might need glasses. But after meeting his assistant’s brother, Scoop saw a specialist and began to work on watching his weight and making healthy choices.
One choice he made was to invest in a product called Scoop of Greens, to “defeat diabetes naturally”. He was introduced to the project by a friend of his business manager named David Sandoval who was helping an 890lb. Sumo wrestler named Tiny.
“Dave Sandoval had these products that he would have Tiny take and it helped him lose weight. So when I had that intervention with my assistant’s brother, they said [I] should talk to Dave. Dave had this product (that was later renamed) Scoop of Greens. I tried it, and it was bringing my blood glucose down. I decided to become a part of it and help him push it because it’s a great product.”
Most of Scoop’s symptoms have disappeared – all of the numbness and blurred vision, gone, thanks to the over-the-counter product, but he says that there is still work to be done. He said that he has about 30 to 40lbs more to drop and to keep his commitment to eating better and using Scoop of Greens.
“I am a work in progress. I am not a supermodel. I still eat pizza, I still do stuff. But when I do that stuff, I take my Scoop of Greens, I go and hit the treadmill and I keep it under control like that,” Scoop said. “It’s a fight for me every single day.”
Scoop may find it particularly difficult for him from the mere fact that his physique is his personality. After all, his name is Fatman. However, he said that he doesn’t really feel pressured by the industry to lose weight and maintains that he is comfortable in being a big guy.
“The pressure to lose weight has never been there for me,” he said. “I’ve always been in the public eye and I’ve always been popular and I always was like, ‘I am who I am.’ I still function, I was still able to get women, I was still able to do all the things that I wanted to do. I came to an understanding about myself like, ‘Hey, it takes different people to walk this earth.’ Everybody’s not skinny; everybody’s not light-skinned or dark skinned. It takes all kinds of people to make the world go around. I am who I am.’”

“We all have different goals in what we want to do. I don’t want to lose who I am. I’m Fatman Scoop and that’s the person I’ve been for years, and I’m comfortable in my skin. My goal is just to pretty much get it under control and still be a heavy person, but just eat better and be in a better space.”
