John Turner had a turbulent childhood that shaped how he entered his life as an adult. When he stepped on his 385 pound limit scale and it read "Error" he decided he needed to make a change. He found keto through a friend and started his journey to not only finding a passion for health and fitness, but the happiness that had been missing in his life for a long time. John is sharing his story today to encourage and support others who have faced similar challenges. He even recently became an ISSA certified trainer!

Bryan Perdomo first appeared on the show in February 2021 and he we had a great talk about the power of mindset on a health journey. You can check it out here:
https://fatguyforum.podbean.com/e/fat-guy-forum-episode-115-bryan-goes-hard/
During that talk Bryan was certain that diet and exercise alone were going to be the tools he needed to succeed, in concert with working on his mindset and perspective. During our new talk he reveals that he eventually realized that while the changes he had made were powerful, he would need a new tool to take him where he wants to be. Bryan had WLS in February of this year and we talk about the mental challenges making that choice presented and what it has been like for him since then. It is an open honest look at how a journey never ends, but things can certainly change!

You may think you know Casey King's story if you caught him on Family By The Ton but it turns out there's so much more to hear, including the reality of that "reality TV" show! I am excited that we sat down to not only talk about the show but his incredible journey from 823 pounds to 245 pounds, how his life and world have changed, and how he just might be the "Encino Man" of weight loss! What does that mean? Give this episode a listen and find out. I won't lie, there's some moments that the sound is challenging but it is worth hanging in and you never miss anything!

Nick Corvino first visited the Forum in September of 2019 on episode 23 and he's back this week to update us on the twists and turns that his health and life journeys have taken. We get real about the impact of regain and where we think the mindset that enables it develops. We also talk about how you get your actions and choices back in line with your goals and purpose. I appreciate Nick's openness and honesty is this truly meaningful discussion that I think everyone will benefit from!

The Forum is back after a quick Summer Break with the awesome story of Michael Bernstein aka Bernie's journey! From almost 400 pounds to taking the stage at transformation bodybuilding shows, Bernie's adventures have taken him a lot of places. Our discussion not only gets into the tools he used to change his life but how he handles the things that don't magically just change and you still need to work on every day. His story is one of persistence and consistency that I think will inspire everyone who listens!

Jesse Ellerbee fought a life long battle, hitting an all-time high of 365lbs, and it was not until he started looking at how food was marketed and presented to us that he had his "lightbulb" moment. Jesse's story exemplifies the importance of educating yourself and finding what works best for YOU when it comes to working on your health. I hope you will join me and this determined Marine/EMT/Fire fighter/coach for an indepth discussion on how it takes work to get the full story on just why hyper palatable food is rampant and nearly impossible to resist!

As he lays out in our discussion, Tony Reyes' story is about so much more than a simple before and after picture. We certainly dive deep into his 200+ pound weight loss but we also talk about how the journey never ends, the mental battle that is regain, and we commiserate on the mindset of a "cheat meal." You will not want to miss this one because through it all one thing is certain for sure, Tony is relentless!
