In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I have a honest conversation with Chuck Carroll about his experience with food addiction and personal transformation.
About featured guest:
At just 5'6" Chuck Carroll weighed a staggering 420 pounds. His 66-inch waist was expanding rapidly courtesy of a 10,000 calorie daily diet and out of control food addiction. At one point he did not think he was going to live to see 30 years old. But Chuck was able to lose an incredible 280 pounds and has kept the weight off for more than 10 years. Today he weighs 140 pounds and proudly wears pants with a 32-inch waist. An NFL player even nicknamed him "The Weight Loss Champion!"
He is host of the popular The Exam Room podcast for PCRM and is sharing his story in hopes of inspiring others who feel they are destined to remain trapped in an unhealthy body. If he has learned anything it is that change is possible! Everyone can have the brighter and healthier future they've always wanted!
