Book Description
The inspiring true story behind the weight-loss saga chronicled on NBC's blockbuster show, The Biggest Loser. There's no getting past it: the Morellis were a fat family. From cookie dough and pizza binges to extreme plastic surgeries, Ron, Becky, Mike and Max Morelli experienced the swinging pendulum of weight loss that so many Americans know all too well. But when Ron and Mike were accepted as contestants on The Biggest Loser, the Morellis' lives changed forever. Ron, at 430 pounds, and 18-year-old Mike, at 388 pounds, made it to the final four, losing a whopping 399 pounds combined. Fat Family/Fit Family also tells the story of wife Becky and youngest son, Max-the story not seen on TV, but relatable to scores of American families, the story of what happens when two foodaholics meet, fall in love, get married and raise (almost inevitably) foodaholic kids. Sharing the eye-opening perspective of each family member, Fat Family/Fit Family chronicles the Morellis' amazing journey in dropping over 700 pounds together, from the emotional and physical struggles of obesity to the triumph of their newfound healthy lifestyle. Obesity doesn't just happen in a vacuum-it starts in homes like the Morellis, and it can end there, too. Fat Family/Fit Family is an ultimately inspiring story about the healing power of family.

Pages : 257
Book Description
When Bill Baroni was just twenty years old, he was convinced he was dying. He thought he was having a heart attack because it felt like he had an elephant sitting on his chest. It turned out to be only indigestion, but more than that, it was the wake up call he needed to save his life. Bill weighed 320 pounds and was hooked on junk food. He set about to change his life forever, and now, in Fat Kid Gets Fit, he tells you everything you need to know to lose weight and more importantly, keep it off for the rest of your life. No, he’s not a doctor. Not a trainer. Not a salesman hawking gym equipment, vitamin supplements, or workout videos. He did not have gastric bypass surgery and he didn’t subscribe to the slimming grapefruit enema regimes used by Hollywood stars. He lost his weight using common sense. It took dedication, and even some gumption. But it worked! He lost 120 pounds and, more importantly, he has kept it off! He has maintained a healthy 185 pounds for fifteen years. At 6’5”, he is trim, handsome, and healthy. Bill is a man on a mission—to help get everyone fit, no matter what their story is.

Category : Family & Relationships

Pages : 212
Book Description
Parents who are concerned about their child's weight are up against formidable adversaries. Super-sized portions of bad-for-your-kids foods are everywhere. Television, video games, and computer-based socializing are taking over where playgrounds and neighborhood backyards once predominated. Cash-strapped schools and overscheduled family lives are conspiring to keep kids from getting the physical activity and nutritious foods their bodies need. It's no surprise that children in America are getting fatter and unhealthier with each passing year. But, so too are many parents-a child's most influential role models. Family Fun and Fitness is Knute Keeling's plan to help you take back control of your family's health and ensure that your child gets the best possible start. Keeling's plan focuses on the formative years from pre-conception through the early school-age years. At each stage, Keeling shows how you and your child can get moving with physical activities and workout routines (illustrated with photos); eat well with a nutritious diet and nutrition-packed foods (with recipes); and overcome hard-to-resist, less-than-healthful habits with simple strategies (plus some tricks and tips). Keeling includes dozens of great ideas-prenatal boogie sessions, jungle gym workouts, meals with "energy foods," and the like-to keep you and your child excited about learning to eat well, exercise regularly, and lose weight. Tapping into his years of training expertise and personal experience as a father of two, Keeling helps parents commit to the hard work involved in making these lifestyle changes, empowers them to lead by their good example, and delivers a plan that promises a lifelong love of exercise and healthful eating, and a whole lot of family fun.
