Hello and welcome to the Chris Terrell podcast.

My name is Chris Terrell.

Okay, welcome again.

If you are new here, I have lost 125 pounds myself.

I did it through slow and steady weight loss after my entire adulthood, 20 years of yo-yo dieting, up and down and up and down and up and down.

And, you know, every time I lost weight, it seemed to find its way back to me.

You know, I would change the food. You know, what do I got to cut out? What do I got to remove?

You know, I would remove different things, take them out and get some weight loss, maybe a little,

maybe a lot. And then eventually I'd stop and lo and behold, the weight would come back.

You know, it was not like it came back overnight. I mean, let's be honest with each other.

Many of you listening right now, you've lost 50 pounds, 60 pounds, 100 pounds in the past.

Some of you've even lost over 100 pounds in the past, only to find it all back on your body again.

But of course, it didn't happen overnight.

It took time.

It slowly came back on, maybe quickly, but still it took time for it to come back to your body.

Some of you have even gone as far as to modify your body. You have gone through

weight loss surgery, resulting in you losing 100 plus pounds, only to find the weight back on you

again. And so many people, they just said, they go, what's wrong with me? How come I can do this?

I guess I'll always be a big person.

We resign ourselves to our fate and just think that there is something wrong with us.

Maybe we didn't do the diet right the first time.

And somewhere inside, inside the back of our mind, we know that we've got to make some real changes.
