"I was tired of feeling tired": Steve
January 14, 2024
Steve Campbell played sports growing up, but an injury in high school caused him to gain weight.
His dad was a bodybuilder and gave him an example of discipline with fitness and eating. But he struggled to maintain that himself.
Steve tried all kinds of diets, including keto. He would be very disciplined during the week but have "cheat days" on weekends where he overindulged. At night when exhausted, he would reach for unhealthy comfort foods and overeat.
Steve stumbled across the Life After Sugar podcast and it spoke to him. His outlook changed. He cut out all sugar for 2 weeks and also introduced intermittent fasting.
He lost 5-6 pounds quickly and has seen reduced headaches and more energy.
Now when he feels in control around food, it frees him up mentally to be fully present with his family and others.
He wants to live an extremely long life with his wife and kids. This motivates his health choices. Find Steve's podcast One Big Thing here and Ditch the Suits here.
