Summary

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Brian Wiley is a Certified Health Coach who has struggled with food addiction and battled with obesity for most of his life. Being advised with mainstream approaches as his solution, along with the standard, “eat less, move more” resulted in minimal, or no success with eventual regain. In 2009, he reached his highest weight of 265 pounds. His doctor advised and encouraged him to take medications after his blood glucose, blood pressure and cholesterol reached dangerous levels at the age of only 35. His commitment to a low carb lifestyle resulted in a 100-pound weight loss, and he was able to reverse his abnormal health markers improving his heart health and avoiding type 2 diabetes. Brian has maintained his weight loss for the last 14 years. Brian is also an ACE certified personal trainer.

In this episode, Dr. Tro and Brian talk about…

The beginnings of Tro’s and Brian’s struggle with food addiction in their childhoods
The resurgence of online fat shaming and why it is not helpful or acceptable
Brian’s struggle with weight as an adult
How to stick with your diet
Brian’s discovery of the low carb diet
