I was inspired to write my first book,

Take Control of Your Body Before It Takes Control of You

50 Success Actions To Achieve A Healthy Body and a Confident Mind

because of the passing of my beautiful mother from complications due to obesity. I also suffered from obesity for many years (read more about my struggles below) and in my book I share my worst struggles mentally and physically with being obese before I started to beat it. I hope the book will motivate you to take control of your own life by taking control of your mind and body.

I took my mental and physical fitness to the next level when I became a Certified Personal Trainer, Health Coach, Master Coach and Behavior Change Specialist. 

I became an expert on how you can change your Lifestyle Behavior and overcome obesity and never go back.  I created The 432 Playbook program to help you beat obesity. The 432 Playbook is a step by step program where you will build your personalized roadmap for lifestyle behavior change. Your roadmap is designed by YOU FOR YOU To Become The Person You Want To Be and Live The Life You Want To Live.

  MY OBESITY STRUGGLE - FOR YEARS

 

I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL RIGHT NOW (see pictures on home page).

I know how being severely overweight negatively pierces Every Part of Your Life and Mind. You never stop thinking about it - from the time you get up in the morning to when you go to bed at night, there are constant reminders that you are obese.

The pictures of me below are from February 24th, 2014, when I finally committed to do something. This was the heaviest I had ever been, and when my wife took this picture of me, it was one of my lowest moments.

Even after this picture, I still had many ups and downs for years because I did not know what to do, where to start, or how to stay motivated – I did not know how to be successful in improving my health. I did not know how to change any of my lifestyle behaviors, which led me to being obese for years.

I tried to overcome obesity for many years and suffered many setbacks (see below). But I never Gave Up because I was so scared that I was going to have health issues that I would never recover from.

Thanks to The 432 Playbook, I am now 58 and the healthiest I have ever been, mentally and physically. 

I am very committed to helping you beat obesity because I know the pain, the fear, the low self-esteem, and the loneliness of being here. I am finally beating obesity at 58 and...

YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN TOO!

February 24th, 2014 

One of the heaviest and lowest moments in my life.

This picture was taken a few days after I had a health scare, and I vowed that I would beat obesity. This was before my book, certification,s and journey. I share this picture from 2014 because I want you to know that it is never too late for YOU to start. If I can do this, you can too, and please trust when I say that I am no one special.

I have been battling being obese for years (too many to count).  I share the pictures below and on my Home Page with you so you understand I completely get where your mind and pain might be right now.

I was absolutely there - feeling lost, a lack of confidence, a lack of hope and completely disgusted with my body and almost accepting that this was going to be my life - no matter how hard I tried for it not to be.

I am here to tell you that it absolutely does not have to be this way! YOU CAN BEAT OBESITY!  It took me some time to start winning with so many setbacks. My last one coming on my birthday, September 10th, 2022. I vowed this would be my final day 1 before picture. On this day I started my first very first 432 Playbook and I have never looked back.

But I did have some successes – I ran a duathlon in 2016, wrote a book, earned Fitness, Health Coach and Behavior Change Certifications, and after so many years, I am finally winning the fight against obesity, and

YOU CAN START TO BEAT IT TOO!

I am absolutely no one special and I am just like you and if I can do this you can too, and I am going to help you.

Unfortunately, I had may setbacks along the way and my latest was on September 10th, 2022.

I CALL IT “THE DREADED BEACH PHOTO”

It is still hard for me to look at the picture of me with my daughter and father at Laguna Beach in June of 2008. I know it is hard to tell but I did feel a great sense of responsibility to lose the weight because of my daughter but I was still unable to take advantage of that feeling and get fit.​

I share this with you to tell you if you are here RIGHT NOW in your life, please try not to be too hard on yourself. Celebrate the fact that you still can change your course in life. Make a plan, take your time, and be patient because the journey to change your life is definitely a marathon and not a sprint. Please do not give up on yourself and think you cannot beat obesity. I know the road ahead may seem long and intimidating but you absolutely can do IT! YOU CAN BEAT OBESITY.

The 432 Playbook is a powerful lifestyle behavior change program to transform your life and Take Your Body and Health BACK!

The 432 Playbook is a powerful lifestyle behavior change strategy to transform your life and Take Your Body and Health BACK! It certainly transformed my life.

When my wife took this picture of me above, I vowed this would not be my legacy.

Even after this moment, it was not until eleven years later that I finally started to win the war against obesity. On this journey, I had the ups and downs that most of you experience. I even had to start over again on my birthday, September 10th, 2022, but this time I had The 432 Playbook.  I created my lifestyle change plan using The 432 Playbook program, followed the plan, and I am beating obesity. I share my results with you on The 432 Playbook page to motivate you to get going and start winning your battle against obesity.

Before The 432 Playbook, I experienced many setbacks and wins on my weight loss journeys (see below).

I HAD A WIN IN 2019 AND I THOUGHT I WAS ON MY WAY.

June 20th, 2019

Even though I still had work to do in my midsection and in my chest, I thought I was on my way when this photo was taken. But, as you will see, in the pictures below, I did not have The 432 Playbook in my life yet and I let life’s daily challenges, my busy schedule, my return to bad eating habits, and lots of excuses pack on the pounds. 

In the other photo, my daughter was giving me my training schedule for the Lake Tahoe Duathlon on August 25th, 2019. Unfortunately, I suffered a setback and had an injury that prevented me from participating in this race.

DEPRESSING SET BACK

July 31st, 2021 

Unfortunately, I completely got away from everything I wrote about in my book and used COVID as an excuse to pack on the pounds, which resulted in me going back up to over 300 pounds. As you can see, I gained a ton of weight back—that treadmill behind me was not seeing any action! It was very depressing that I let this happen!! I know that many of you have had this experience.

I WAS DETERMINED TO MAKE THIS MY FINAL SETBACK and BEFORE PICTURE!

 

BEGINNING OF MY

FIRST 432 PLAYBOOK

This is me on my 56th birthday. Obviously, I do not know how to spell the word Beginning but I was excited to start this journey because it was the first time I used the lifestyle behavior change plan that I created with The 432 Playbook and it changed my life. 

TODAY, I AM IN THE BEST SHAPE IN MY LIFE AND HAVE PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY TRANSFORMED MY LIFE! 

(New BIRTHDAY Photo Coming on September 10th, and it will be fantastic and motivate you!)

Let THE 432 PLAYBOOK Change Yours Too!

JOIN ME IN YOUR FIGHT TO BEAT OBESITY ONCE AND FOR ALL! TRUST ME, IF I CAN START WINNING AFTER SO MANY YEARS - YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN TOO!

I HAVE BEAT OBESITY! YOU CAN TOO!
