• Tim shares the background of his health journey. (4:00)
  • The mind can play tricks on you, and you don't always realize how the weight creeps up.
  • He tried several ways of losing weight, and had some success, but the weight would always return.
  • He enjoyed running; however, he hit a point where he could no longer do it due to damage to his hip.
  • Finally, he got a hip replacement, but was told he wouldn't run again. (23:00)
  • Tim went into a deep depression and felt like a shell of himself.
• Stress from work took a toll, and he started gaining weight again. (32:00)
• He made changes and described having an epiphany of how he could move forward.
• Tim has lost 115 pounds since starting again, and his wife has lost 70 pounds.
• Words of Wisdom: (43:00)
  • Firstly, if you are depressed, get help from a counselor, doctor, pastor, etc.
  • Tim has learned to speak up when he is struggling instead of "eating his feelings."
    • Having the support of his family and close friends has made a big difference.
