Episode 216: Gaining 75 lbs ON PURPOSE - Drew Manning

Episode Highlights: fit to fat, body positivity movement, intentional eating, empathy in relation to weightloss Summary:  Welcome to this edition of the Mental Wealth Podcast. Guys, this is such an awesome episode! Kaylor had Drew Manning on the show and if you don’t know who Drew is, Drew created fit2fat2fit and intentionally gained 75lbs back in 2011 so that he could gain a better understanding of what his clients go through during their own weight loss journey.  Kaylor and Drew jammed on:

• Drew’s story about what motivated him to go from fit to fat journey and what it taught him
• What kind of diet he followed to gain the weight, cravings and what areas within himself he noticed diminishing quickly because of the weight gain
• Drew’s approach to shedding the 75lbs he gained and the challenges he faced
• Kaylor and Drew’s thoughts on the body positivity movement and that health comes in all shapes and sizes
• Practical things listeners can take away on their own health/weight loss journey
