Fat Guy Forum Episode 85 - David's Accountable Life! Jul 05, 2020

Show notes

You have to believe that reaching 400 pounds by 18 years old is a challenge, but imagine doing it as the child of a nurse and a cardiologist! That is the life that today’s guest led and it wasn’t until he built a life of accountable consistency for himself that he started making change. Change that brought him to a bodybuilding stage and beyond. I am excited for you to meet David Roden, former fat guy and co-founder of the amazing Accountable Life Group.

Fat Guy Forum Episode 84 - Making Moves with Lafayette! Jul 01, 2020

Show notes

Lafayette Brito was getting sick and tired of weighing over 400lbs but it wasn’t until a busy wedding season rolled around and a chance encounter with a maybe too honest child that he decided it was time to get moving! This self-described “Fit Don” started moving forward and hasn’t looked back. I think many of you will empathize with his struggles and his tenacity!

Fat Guy Forum Episode 83 - Tough Talk with The Keto Guy! Jun 28, 2020

Show notes

Today's guest Reid Jacobs lived my dream! While playing football, his coaches actually told him he had to gain weight. The problem is, when his days as a 300lb lineman ended, his eating didn't and he found himself 430 pounds. Reid's discovery of the Keto diet gave him the tools he needed to start to make change, but like most of us, his path is far from a straight line. We talk about the ups and downs, the ons and offs of it all, and how he is proud to be over 100lbs down from his heaviest and working on what comes next.

Fat Guy Forum Episode 79 - Chris' Addictions Were No Laughing Matter! Jun 14, 2020

Show notes

Christopher Stanly not only battled an addiction to food that brought him to 550 pounds but also found himself lost in drug addiction as well. He had to get sober from both to find the right direction for his life. We discuss how that happened in this fun and slightly language explicit chat that also covers excusing quarantine binges, battling the remaining fat guy mentality, and what it feels like to walk in a room now and not draw everyone’s glare. This is a fun episode with some actual laughs and a true dive into the impact of obesity and addiction.
