Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me I Was Fat?
Description
Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me I Was Fat? is a humorous and inspiring account of the author's decades-long battle with weight and self-image. Starting as a 180-pound teenager with dreams of athletic success and a love for pancakes, the author's choices gradually lead him to tip the scales at a dangerous 320 pounds. Facing the risk of losing his feet to disease and his self-esteem to the numbers on the scale, he candidly reflects on how he got to where he was at his lowest point. From his athletic pursuits as a football player and undefeated boxer, to his roles as a decorated United States Air Force first sergeant, the author details his transformation from an active individual to an unhealthy and overweight person. Amidst increasing stress and wavering discipline, he shares his unsuccessful attempts at regaining control until a wise and fearless advisor shows him the path to recovery. Resilience becomes a prevailing theme as the author emphasizes the importance of preparing for victory, bouncing back from setbacks, and embracing growth through adversity. He highlights that good health is ultimately a conscious decision, influenced by the choices we make. Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me I Was Fat? offers a delightful blend of laughter, introspection, and actionable recommendations. Middle-aged men and women will find inspiration, practical insights, and a renewed sense of possibility within these pages, empowering them to embark on their own journey to lasting health and happiness.
