I was lucky enough to be in the audience to hear Adam speak as part of the nutrition in health symposium in Melbourne last month. His journey from heart attack patient to iron man was incredibly moving and inspiring. He totally filled the room with his energy and passion. 

Until I heard him speak that night I didn’t know much about him and of course when a bit of time opened up the following day I jumped at the chance to sit down with him. I hadn’t prepared a single question, talking point or note, we just decided to wing it and I really could not be happier with the conversation that followed. We laughed, we cried, we took a deep dive into addiction, mindfulness and emotion.

I’m now proud to call Adam a friend, I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

Spud Up!

Adam Guthrie: From heart attack patient to Iron Man

In 2016 I overcame food addiction, depression and lost 53kg (117lbs) by eating only potatoes for the year. The Spud Fit Podcast is all about continued self improvement through talking with others who do things differently and push the envelope. 
Since 2016 I have helped thousands of others to heal their troubled relationship with food. As of 2023 our brand new Spud Fit Transformation Roadmap is where we lay out the fundamentals of our whole approach, where we lay out step by step how to get from someone who is continually trying and failing to lose weight, to becoming an effortless healthy eater at their core. 
The roadmap all starts with the 1 Day Spud Fit Challenge. You can get it free at www.spudfit.com
