Episode 32: Lessons from a 1,000 Pound Woman – Donna Simpson Dec 30, 2010

Show notes

On December 25th, 2010, New Jersey woman Donna Simpson sat down on a steel reinforced chair to a 30,000-calorie meal on her way to her goal weight of 1,000 pounds. To be clear, she was not working to decrease her weight to 1,000 pounds, she is attempting to gain enough weight to grace the pages of The Guinness Book of World Records as "The fattest Woman in the world".

The meal started off with two 25 pound turkeys and two maple-glazed hams, followed by 15 lbs. of potatoes, five loaves of bread, five gut filling pounds of stuffing, four pints of creamy gravy, four pints of cranberry dressing and 20 pounds of vegetables! Well, at least she got her veggies in! To top off the meal before the diabetic coma set in, she scarfed down a desert made of marshmallow, cream cheese, whipped cream and cookies.

The most amazing part of this story isn't the fact that Donna wants to be the fattest woman in the world, nor is it the fact that she was able to fit 30,000 calories worth of food into her stomach, the most amazing part of this story is the fact that she insists that she is healthy!

That begs the question, "How exactly does she define health?" This is really a good question to ask yourself as well. "How do you define health." Pretty much the only way that she could rationalize her current state of health as "healthy" is if she defined health as "as long as you are still breathing." I assure you, even though she continues to breathe, underneath it all, physically and figuratively there isn't an ounce of "healthy" in there. The truth is, the grim reaper is speeding in her direction on a bullet-train from heaven; he's in transit, but he just hasn't arrived yet.

Anyway, I don't tell this story to pick on Donna. I tell the story for your good, so that we can pick out the nuggets of learning from Donna's situation. So you may be asking, what in the world could we learn from a woman who is trying to gain fat rather than lose fat? That's a good question, but I assure you there i

Episode 31: Can You Turn Your Fat-Genes Off? Is Obesity Caused by Genetics? Nov 21, 2010

Show notes

Many of our listeners wonder if they are just genetically programmed to be fat. Their father, mother and siblings may all be overweight and thus it is logical to believe that their weight is predetermined. In today's podcast, we will answer a number of questions...

Do fat genes exist? If so, is it possible to fight these evil little genes? Is obesity caused by genetics?

Genetics are not the stone slate of physical certainty that we once thought. It turns out that genes offer us many different potential outcomes through a process called epigenetics.

Epigenetics is the study of how your environment turns genes on or off. That's right, each gene has an on or off switch, even the fat genes. This means that your day-to-day choices determine whether your fat genes are activated or sitting idly by doing nothing...

There is plenty of published scientific proof that genetic expression can be molded by lifestyle, however, let me tell you about a recent British study. Researchers tested the genetics of over 20,000 people and gave them each an "obesity susceptibility score" based on their results. They then analyzed work and exercise activity for each of the participants. Based on the results of their analysis, they determined that the people who incorporated at least 1 hour of physical activity had a 40% lower risk of becoming obese compared to people with the same genetic potential but less physical activity.

This finding is pretty amazing given the fact that the researchers only analyzed one component of health and fitness. What if we took those same participants and taught them how to exercise for fat loss and how to eat for improved health and improved blood sugar control? I imagine that we would be blown away by the results of such a study.

So, what are the takeaways from today's episode?

* I don't care if you are genetically programmed for fat storage; you can make a major improvement in your health and body through your actions * Exercise & activity are hugely

Episode 27: The 8 Reasons Why We Fail Our Weight Loss Programs Sep 13, 2010

We believe that we learn more from our failures than we do from our victories. Tony Robbin always says, when we succeed, we party; when we fail, we ponder. In this podcast, we will be discussing an email post by Tom Venuto, titled "The 8 Reasons We Fail Our Weight L0ss Programs". Remember, weight loss is never constant; there are days when you will lose, days when you will gain and days when you will remain the same weight. Stay the course, assess your results and tweak when necessary!
