"Eating less sugar saved me from weight loss surgery": Jonathan

September 21, 2025

Growing up, Jonathan described himself as "the fat kid".

His weight yo-yo'd constantly, reaching over 400lbs as an adult.

Jonathan had tried hundreds of diets, but he could never keep the weight off.

One day, he saw himself in a photo and he was shocked.

So shocked that he made an appointment for weight loss surgery.

In the weeks before, he decided to be more mindful of what he was eating, as well as how much and how often.

In this episode, you'll find out how Jonathan's mindset shifts saved him from surgery and helped him lose weight and maintain a healthy mind and body.
