Obesity is now a widespread global epidemic. How do you take the first steps towards weight loss? What are the main things to consider when you're trying to live a healthier lifestyle? Does having kids really mean you can never diet? In this episode, weight loss coach Mitch Calvert answers all these questions, share his own story, and gives professional tried-and-tested advice and much more.

I eat now to fuel my body, which is a good thing - it has created a much better person in the end. - Mitch Calvert

Takeaways + Tactics

  1. You need to have a big motivation if you want to lose weight. Just looking good on the beach isn't enough, you have to consciously look to improve your own lifestyle.
  2. Diet like a king - not always easy, but ultimately worth it in the end.
  3. If you can, always go for grass-fed beef, as it doesn't have any of the factory carcinogens found in factory-farmed meat.

We started off the episode with the story of Mitch's own weight loss journey, and what set him on the path towards a healthier life. We then briefly talked about the connections between an obsession with video games and an unhealthy lifestyle. Mitch then went over his top tips about getting into shape and keeping the weight off. Afterwards, we briefly discussed the difficulty of keeping healthy testosterone levels in a busy city environment and how doctors are sometimes unhelpful when it comes to testosterone-related issues. Finally, we discussed some of the benefits of fasting and how joining a group can make dieting and/or exercise a lot easier.

In this episode, we also talked about;

  • Blackmailing yourself into weight loss
  • The importance of finding the right motivation
  • Dieting like a king
  • The benefits of grass-fed beef
  • What Mitch misses about being fat
  • Embracing your hunger

Weight loss is never an easy journey to set yourself on. Finding the right motivator is key in a successful transition to a healthier lifestyle. Your family and friends can help with that, however the change needs to come within YOU. Trick yourself into dieting and exercise, don't fall into temptation and the results will come soon enough. A good physician will know how to advise you on this, especially if your hormone levels are off. Mood-enhancing or weight loss medicine isn't always the answer - sometimes a bottle of testosterone can fix all the problems you've had until that point. Educate yourself and realize the need for a better, healthier lifestyle and that will help not just your body but your mind, too.
