Fat Guy Forum Episode 206 - Phil Said Yes! Mar 05, 2023

Show notes

This week the Fat Guy Forum goes international again as we visit with Phil Kayes in the UK. Phil has lost 300lbs over the past 5 years as he made the journey from saying no to most things in life to saying yes whenever possible. Our discussion dives into the tools he used (finding the right way of eating for him!) and the way his shift in mindset was the true driving force behind his transformation. If you have ever felt that reclaiming your health was not possible this is the one for you. Phil brings a hefty dose of inspiration today!

Fat Guy Forum Episode 204 - Nick Is Working On It! Feb 19, 2023

Show notes

Often the discussions on this show are about guys who have achieved their goals or are in the thick of working on them, this week we talk about what it feels like when getting started is a challenge. Nick joins me to discuss the place he is at in his journey and shares a truly vulnerable look at what it is like to feel like you know the path you need to be on but real life challenges might need to take you in a different direction. In his words, it is not a story of failure, but one of progress. I hope you will join us for this important discussion.

Fat Guy Forum Episode 203 - Danny Just Started! Feb 12, 2023

Show notes

Danny Beeler stepped on the scale in front of the Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas and got the shock of his life. What started as a "I wonder if I can get a free burger?" moment (HAG lets anyone over 350 pounds eat for free) turned into a "I can't believe I weigh 455 pounds!" shock. In this episode we talk about the two words said to him that really got his journey started and the discovery of a passion that has helped him drop 165 pounds so far.

Show notes

Jordon Hurd first appeared on the Forum in June of 2020 (Episode 76!) where he shared his journey from 660 pounds to losing over 300 pounds. Almost three years later he returns to not only update us on what has happened since but to dive into the discoveries he's made about the mental health challenges that come with massive weight loss. It is about so much more than just changing your food and exercising. This discussion is an important one!

Show notes

In this week's episode I talk to Greg Afanador and we dive deep into his journey from over 400 pounds to sustaining that weight loss... but it just starts there. We talk about the importance of finding value in himself and the power of saying no to others. Greg's journey is not only inspiring but one that will be very informative if you're considering weight loss surgery, skin removal or struggle with your perspective on your body. I am excited for you to hear his story in his own words this week!

Fat Guy Forum Episode 198 - Rob Didn’t Give Up! Jan 08, 2023

Show notes

This week's guest's journey is a bit different than others you have heard. Often I speak to guys who have recently hit their goals or are still working on them. Rob's journey started when he graduated high school at 350 pounds and we're talking around 20 years later. The decades between not only contain a massive weight loss, some periods of regain but also the discovery of a health issue that threatened his life. How he came through it all exemplifies the importance of telling the stories I do here on the show. Each is unique, but each provides lessons for us all! Rob's is no different in that way!
