Chuck Carroll is here. I love this man. We have been friends for years. I'm a huge fan of his wife,

and you probably know her, Julie Wright. She is, she's been a long time TV personality in the Washington,

D.C. area. She's on Channel 7. Chuck Carroll, the weight loss champ, is here. He has a new

project out that we're going to discuss. And

also, Chuck is such an inspiration of his story of weight loss, which was what, over 300 pounds?

Of 420. Don't shortchange me. Don't short change me now. You lost 400. Oh, oh, oh, oh, no, no, no,

no, no. 420 was my peak weight. Oh, I lost 275 pounds. 275. But chalk, even, because now you're plant-based vegan, which we're going to talk about, you've had to have lost even more. Oh, yeah. Even tiny. Okay, so what was your highest weight was 420? 420. What's your weight currently, if you don't mind me asking? It's 144. But see, so like that sounds crazy, right? For a guy, but you need to understand. See, you're listening on a podcast. I'm 5'6 on a good day. So this is, you know, this is not, not crazy. I'm not like 6.6.144. You know, I'm fine. Chuck and I kind of have like the same

body look and same height, really. Yeah. If you Google me. Twins. And you put, honestly,

we could be twins. Absolutely. We share clothes. It's amazing. It's truly is. We're about the same

size. Chuck, I am so thrilled that you're here. I'm so excited about your new project.

So let's talk about your new project before we get into, because I wanted to have you on, January 12th.

We just passed January 12th of 2018. The 12th is the day that about 60% of people are going to give up all New Year's resolutions.

And most of those resolutions are around health and weight.

I gave up making a New Year's weight loss resolution about probably four years ago.

But for 14 years, every single year my New Year's resolution, and I posted this on social media

because I feel like it was so shallow, was always to be hotter and skinny. That was it media because I feel like it was so shallow was always

to be hotter and skinny. That was it and that was like it was and I was serious. Like I was

serious. I really believed that losing weight that being a size four being that was always my goal

that that would bring me happiness and success. And I've done every diet under the sun. None of them worked until I got

to mindful eating, which essentially is finding a healthy eating pattern that is sustainable long term.

Yes. See, you hit the nail on the head over there. I'm so proud of you. Well, that's why one of the

many reasons you and I have been friends for so long. But tell me about this new project because it's really exciting.
