The old Ross.<\/p><\/div>\n

How much weight have you lost?\u00a0<\/strong>160 pounds<\/p>\n

What was the old you like? <\/strong>I was in pretty bad shape. I had a couple of severe bouts of pneumonia, and I smoked two to three packs of cigarettes a day. I had to take a break half way up my steps to the bedroom because I was out of breath. I had high blood pressure. I was borderline Type 2 Diabetes.\u00a0 I was sick a lot. I was obese, but refused to admit it. I was in a bad physical and mental state.<\/p>\n

What prompted your weight loss? <\/strong>All of the above and I wanted to live as long as I could. I remember thinking to myself that if God wants to take me it is in his hands, but I was no longer going to contribute to an early demise.<\/p>\n

How did you lose the weight? <\/strong>I have always struggled with my weight. I was like a yo-yo. One year I would be about 200 or so pounds, \u00a0and the next year I would be 240. Up down, up down. Then, middle age came upon me and major changes in my lifestyle occurred around my 40th, 50th and 60th<\/sup> year of life. I got divorced when I was 38 and soon-after realized I was an alcoholic; \u00a0I quit drinking at the age of 40. I met my current wife at 42 and by the time I was in my late 40\u2019s, I was up to the 340-350 range. So after trying exercise and just about every diet under the sun at that time … and because I had suffered a couple major bouts of pneumonia, my doctor and I agreed I needed to do something drastic to take the weight off. \u00a0 I went and had Bariatric surgery. By the way, I also still smoked two to three packs of Kool cigarettes a day as well as drank two to three pots of coffee a day. In both my doctor and my opinion, I was on my way to an early grave. I had the surgery and it was a success and I got down to about 200 pounds. I took up inline speed skating for exercise and that was about all I did for exercise. As far as nutrition goes, because of the<\/p>\n

Ross and Fitz<\/p><\/div>\n

surgery, the amount of food I put into my body was reduced, but I continued to eat what I had always eaten – \u00a0just in smaller amounts. Over the years, I gradually put weight back on until I hit the 240-245 range. About four years ago, I decided I need to lose the weight again before it got out of hand. I started exercising and made minor changes to my nutrition \u00a0and over the course of two years I go down to the 210-215 range. Not bad, but my goal was to get to 190. Over the next two years, no matter what I did I could not get out of that 210-215 range. Then, in December of 2016 I was introduced to Fitz Koehler and her Exact Formula for Weight Loss<\/a>. I remember reading it and when I was done saying to myself, \u201cno way, it cannot be this easy.\u201d What the heck did I have to lose but weight? Nothing else was working, so on December 15 of 2016 I committed to the Formula. In mid-March of 2017 I hit my 190 pound goal. I have stuck with the Formula and have not, nor will I look back. I now want to get down to 185 and am currently at 186. These last few pounds are the hardest to take off, but I know I will get there soon.<\/p>\n

How long did it take? <\/strong>So far, I am in the fifteen years or so of this journey.<\/p>\n

What was the hardest part? <\/strong>These last 30 or so pounds.<\/p>\n

Most fun part of my weight loss? <\/strong>To be able to do things like speed skate and run and not be out of breath. Fifteen years ago, if you had told me that I would be a speed skater and a runner, I would have thought you were crazy. I had never done either activity and to start them in my 50\u2019s and 60\u2019s …. \u00a0what are you thinking?<\/p>\n

Most rewarding experience? <\/strong>When I get to share Fitz and the Formula with others that want to live a more rewarding and healthier life,<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Ross and the Hotties at the Ann Arbor Goddess 5k<\/p><\/div>\n

Who\/what inspires you when you feel like quitting? <\/strong>Three things. First, I have a picture of me looking rather large wearing my 3X form fitting shirt in my home gym (yes, I have one of them now) by the light switch. When I turn the lights on and see the picture I say to myself \u201cnever again\u201d. Second, I have a banner hung in the gym with a quote from legendary University of Michigan football coach, Bo Schembechler. It reads, \u201cthose who stay will be champions.\u201d\u00a0 When I see that, it tells me to stay the course and I am a champion even if it is only in my eyes. Thirdly but not lastly, the Hotties. I love being a Hottie and belonging to the Hottie Body Fitzness Challenge. The posts and replies to posts are both edifying and inspirational.<\/p>\n

How has this weight loss changed your life? <\/strong>I am much happier now both with my physical appearance and mental health.<\/p>\n

Have any advice for others who would like to lose weight? <\/strong>Join the Hottie Body Fitzness Challenge<\/a>, listen to Fitz and do her daily workouts. Stay the course, you will achieve your goals if you believe.<\/p>\n

Your must have fitness equipment? <\/strong>My speedskates and running shoes.<\/p>\n

Favorite training song? <\/strong>Thunderstruck by ACDC<\/p>\n

Favorite healthy food? <\/strong>A Kind bar.<\/p>\n

Favorite not so healthy food? <\/strong>Oatmeal raisin cookie.<\/p>\n

Funniest\/weirdest\/most awkward experience during your weight loss journey? <\/strong>I really can\u2019t think of one.<\/p>\n

Future goals? <\/strong>In the last three years, I have run many 5K\u2019s and just completed my first 10K. I want to complete a half marathon by the time I turn 65 and complete a full marathon before I turn 66. I turn 65 in one year, so as Fitz says \u201cget to work\u201d<\/p>\n

Anything else you would like to add? <\/strong>Just this. For those of you out there who want to lose weight, join the Hottie Body Fitzness Challenge<\/a>, read the Exact Formula for Weight Loss<\/a> and \u00a0follow Fitz<\/a>.
