Fat Guy Forum Episode 197 - Britt Had To Be Ready! Jan 02, 2023

Show notes

Britt Markum knew he needed to make change in his life but it wasn't until he was faced with his health's condition getting around at a car show that he was ready to take action. Maxing out a 500 pound capacity scale started his journey in 2021, and today he is literally half the man he used to be. We talk about the action he took, the tools he used and the power of consistency in this new episode.
