Hiya, I just want to back up what FuzzyBoots has said- this question will be easier to answer if you ask it separately, as two questions. Also, to save you a step later, any more details you have might make the difference in someone finding an answer. Were the books in English? When did you read them? Were they appropriate for young people, or just adults? Do you remember cover art or anything similar?

The RPG pulled into another world book gets asked about once a month it seems - almost certainly a dupe. Wonder if we could just pin that and the one about getting sucked into another world via PC game to the home screen.... :D - came here to vtc but will leave open to allow for edit

@kelloggd If you want the second question answered, paste your description into another question: "A story about a man looking to lose weight. He taps into something primal, not only losing weight but changing, becoming stronger and faster. But he continues to change, growing more aggressive. There was a scene about him fighting a master with fighting sticks."

The first book you describe is one of Andre Norton's worst books (and the very first Dungeons and Dragons novel so far as I know), Quag Keep.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/662286.Quag_Keep
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Norton "In 1976, Gary Gygax invited Norton to play Dungeons & Dragons in his Greyhawk world. Norton subsequently wrote Quag Keep, which involved a group of characters who travel from the real world to Greyhawk. It was the first novel to be set, at least partially, in the Greyhawk setting and, according to Alternative Worlds, the first to be based on D&D."
