Gregg McBrideLast week I had the pleasure of interviewing Gregg McBride.  Several years ago Gregg weighed over 450 lbs.  He had tried every diet on the market.  Finally, he found the best way to lose weight.  He learned to eat less and move more.  Years later, he now weighs 175 lbs and is the author of the book Just Stop Eating So Much.  It is his powerful guide to really losing weight without fad diets.

The interview is divided into two sections and is roughly thirty four minutes in length and is full of great insights and valuable information on how Gregg achieved his weight loss goals and continues to maintain a healthy weight.

Part 1

Part 2

You can find Gregg online at his website, on facebook or twitter.

    How refreshing to listen to this REALISTIC story…..who ever tells you they had “skin” removed after loosing a lot of weight! I had no idea about the animal protein saving face! I think especially with people who have as much weight to loose as Gregg, the Just Stop Eating so Much, makes simple sense. Thank you for sharing this amazing weight loss story I was pleasantly surprised how informative it was!

    Mr. McBride is not only an inspiration to those of us who struggle to loose weight, but his ideas about loosing weight are simple and make sense! Today, I’m going to buy two things: (1) a pair a jeans I’d like to fit into by July; and (2) Mr. McBride’s book to remind me that I can do it. Thanks for posting this motivational interview.

    [...] for you? I just heard about a book called Just Stop Eating So Much. The author, Gregg McBride, lost 250 lbs in one year by just not eating so much and exercising more. That may be easier said than done, but HE did it. [...]

    I don’t know if it’s just me or if everybody else experiencing
    problems with your website. It appears as if some of the written text in your content are running
    off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if
    this is happening to them as well? This could be a issue with my internet browser
    because I’ve had this happen previously. Many thanks

    Do you have a spam issue on this site; I also
    am a blogger, and I was wondering your situation; many of us have created
    some nice practices and we are looking to trade strategies with
    others, why not shoot me an e-mail if interested.
