Transformation Thomas

Losing weight creates a whole new person in you. Not just body wise but mentally too. As you physically morph from one person to another, you have to adjust your mind accordingly.

Without changing your mindset, you will mentally stay the same as the previous you and slowly but surely return to your old physical body.

Most blokes go for the slash and burn approach to losing weight.

David should know because that's exactly what he did. Not once but many, many times.

But David learned the hard way that this is not a practical long term solution. In this episode, he explains how to do it better that brings about successful weight loss and keeps it off forever.

A child thinks they can have it all but in reality you can have anything but you cannot have everything. You have to choose. It is the same with weight loss. 

Decide who is the person that you want to be at the other side of your transformation and drive yourself towards that.

In this episode, David shares how he is using this philosophy to get himself back on a bodybuilding stage in 2021.

Binge eating, particularly on an evening or at weekends, can destroy anyone's ability to manage their weight. A huge amount of great work can be ruined in just a few days or even less with a bout of uncontrollable eating.

In this episode, David talks about his own challenges with binge eating and how he has finally learned to manage it. 

This is the most extraordinary interview David has ever been involved in. He interviews his friend, Dave Hyner, who is 53 years old, 5' 6" tall (1.67m) and 25 stone / 350lb / 159kg.

In this brutally honest interview, Dave shares his emotional and heartfelt story about how he came to be so overweight.

Putting his teenage disabled son into care, being told by his doctor that he was a clinical compulsive eater and eating to numb the pain of his daily existence are just a few of the many things he talks about.

He also shares what he is doing now to get his shit back together.

A mind blowing interview with lessons for us all.

David did an interview this week and the whole conversation revolved around motivation. Is motivation internal or external, organic or mechanistic?

David delves into this most important of topics in detail.

It took David ten years to realise something critical to maintaining long term transformation. It is about being comfortable with being uncomfortable in order to increase capacity. In this episode, he goes through his experience of getting to that level and how important it is for you to do the same.

There is one brilliant thing about most guys that help them get started on a transformation program. But equally, they also have one major flaw that stops them achieving long term success. David explains how he has been struck by both and how you can manage them to best effect.
