A man dropped 30 pounds by replacing M&Ms with carrots and staying active, eliminating severe lower-back pain that had him hunched over at night. His doctors were shocked enough by his improved blood work to cut his quarterly visits down to once a year.
I think, you know, the biggest problems I had was with my lower back and my hip. Literally, at one point, I was hunched over. But the hips and that, they weren't changing. I only thought, man, I'd wake up in the middle of the night going, "Oh, holy hell, I can't do this." I don't want to get old, and none of us want to get old. I don't have that anymore. I'm 215 pounds with love handles that were like riding a surfboard with grips. I weighed 185 pounds this morning. I'm pretty solid. Instead of sitting down and having a little thing of M&M, I'll go to the refrigerator and I'll be slicing chopping up some carrots. I still stay active and trying to stay in shape. You know, I had this flexibility that I haven't had for a long time. Hell, I don't hurt, you know. I mean, I feel pretty good, you know. And yeah, I see 4 doctors every— I mean, one every quarter. They can't believe my blood work. All of them cut me loose to see me once a year.
