Episode 140 Show Notes for Michael Tamez Interview
Before you take that next sip of coffee – I want you to listen to me for just a moment…my guest today is going to tell you something about your coffee addiction, in addition to many other things…
Back in 2001, my guest, Michael Tamez, weighed 250 pounds, had dangerous high blood pressure, sleep apnea and host of other ailments. He fell asleep while driving and nearly died in a car accident. That event “woke him up” – literally. Prior to that fateful day, he consumed fast food three times per day and drank at least 2 liters of sugared soda.
Over the last 15 years, he has shed almost 100 pounds, without taking any medication, no surgeries or using that four letter word – DIET…amen! He is on a mission to transform and upgrade the outdated healthcare system by positively impacting the obesity epidemic in our society…
OK…I like to eat. I admit that…I’ve made a life style change lately where I am eating mostly salads and greens, and I break it up about every four or five days with a small portion of meat. I’ve actually become accustomed to this and the salad bowl does not make me gag anymore…I was the type that could go into a steak restaurant and order the 32 oz steak with all the trimmings and give back an empty plate…I admit that.
How do you counsel people like me? Do you just focus on portion control?
What about exercise? I’ve got – basically from the waist down – problems…that all stemmed from an accident I was in…but added weight gain has compounded the issues…I can walk about a mile now (two years ago it was ¼ mile)…but people do have physical issues – how do you encourage and counsel them?
You talk about the “common cause” of weight gain…what do you mean by that?
Many people are emotional eaters, correct? I know I have classified myself in that category…along with millions of Americans…we eat when we are happy; we eat when we are sad; we eat when we are mad and we eat just because the clock says it’s time to eat. How do you help people break those habits?
As we get ready to close, can you give our listeners your contact information incase – and I believe this will be the case – that some of them want to get ahold of you, maybe to ask a question or sign up for your coaching program?
