Chris S. Cornell weighed 278 pounds at age 51, when he realized he had to take action to improve his health.

After reading “Why We Get Fat” by Gary Taubes, he started to understand the benefits of a low-carb diet, and he got down to a ‘normal’ weight for the first time in his adult life.

Cornell has maintained an 80-pound weight loss since 2016.

Today, he writes a weekly email newsletter devoted to helping give people hope and lead them to improved health, fitness, and a more rewarding life. Subscribe to his newsletter here.
