About this listen
No one says losing weight is easy, but Matt Hoover is here to tell you that if he can do it, you can, too. Matt began gaining weight in college, depressed after failing to achieve the high standards he had set for his wrestling career. By the time he reached 340 pounds he had given up on college, wrestling, and his first marriage. When he was cast on NBC's The Biggest Loser, he had no idea how much his life (or his waist size) was about to change.
With the help of exercise physiologist Sheri R. Colberg, Ph.D., Matt separates weight-loss facts from fiction, describes his workout routine, and offers advice on choosing healthy yet satisfying foods. Matt has experienced first-hand the emotional challenges of being overweight and knows how life changes when the pounds begin to fall off. He speaks candidly on sex, divorce, and a new life with his wife, Suzy, whom he met on The Biggest Loser. Honest and full of sage, no-nonsense advice, this book is sure to inspire and guide anyone who wants to lose a few pounds or completely transform his or her body and life.

As a former PE teacher, athlete, personal trainer and now one of the biggest fitness YouTubers in the world (a.k.a. an absolute weirdo who films themselves doing stuff), the most common question I get from followers and even people in the street is, 'How do I get a body like yours?' People will almost whisper it, as if I'm going to usher them into a dark alleyway and reply with some kind of mystical secret.

Losing fat is tough. The biggest issue us women face is a complete lack of information. I mean, look at how it is marketed to us in the first place. We’re told to lose "weight" all the time. Losing weight and losing fat are two completely different things. You could lose weight and still be the unhealthiest person in the world. You can eat as much as you want and eat as healthy as you think you can, but if you follow this wrong goal, you won’t get the results you desire.

The day that actress, comedian, and cohost of The View Sherri Shepherd was diagnosed with the Big D - type 2 diabetes - she didn't see it coming. But she should have. Sherri had spent years battling excess weight, ignoring the warning that she was prediabetic, avoiding doctors, and denying some very clear signs that a diabetes diagnosis was imminent. Even watching the disease take her mother's life at the age of 41 didn't sound the alarm for Sherri. But when D Day came, she had a diagnosis in hand and a child of her own....

Not only do diets not work, they often result in weight gain. Americans are losing the battle of the bulge because our bodies and brains are not hardwired to resist food - the very idea of it works against our biological imperative to survive.
