On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on Wendy Beckers with Yell At Your Fat.
Her story is very inspirational She said the reason why she decided she needed to lose weight started at a football game. She was 328 pounds, and had decided to take her father to an NFL game in Tempe. While they were in line to get in, a man started choking on a hot dog. No one was doing anything to help this guy — so she ran over to him as fast as she could and proceeded to give him the heimlich. He was able to cough up the hot dog and she ended up saving him. It was a surreal experience, and afterwards, she realized how precious life is. And how silly it was to care so much for the life of a stranger, yet she didn’t care enough about her own life to do something about her weight. That night, from the hotel room in Tempe, she and her my husband called Jenny Craig. The next day, they started with the Jenny Craig Vegetarian plan, and lost a combined weight total of 231 pounds. Interesting development from losing weight: she and her husband appeared in a national commercial for Jenny Craig– starring them with Valerie Bertinelli!
