Great Journey

My story starts on tour with Def Leppard, Poison, and Tesla. We (myself and crew members) have always talked about getting healthy. It started in Little Rock with a Bulletproof coffee and watching Dr. Berg videos. My journey started at or above 400 lbs. I have always been ‘big boned’ driving every night, not exercising leads to a poor lifestyle. We lost a few great drivers which spurred me on. When we started, there were 20 of us to start. At this writing, only two of us still follow Dr. Berg. What made it simple for us, we had catering every show day. This also allowed us to pack ‘Lunches’ for days we didn’t have a show. I get a hotel room every day. This made starting IF simple. After lunch, head to the hotel to get my rest, and 12 hours later be back to work. Eight hours later we would be in the next city and breakfast would be served. Lunch. To the hotel, repeat. As I dove in, I started at three meals a day, then two. There have been times where I have done OMD I would do those when we had long drives into a day off. Would pushed to 22-24 hours of fasting prior to eating. As we had catering, we always had great food selections. Lots of vegetables, great sources of protein. If we needed anything we just had to ask our caters. We got a lot of avocados once we asked. As I go into my third year I have gone from a 54” waist to a 36” waist. I have dropped 172 pounds with 15 pounds to get to my ideal weight (225). I walk everyday, add weight lifting twice a week and haven’t felt better. I like who I see in the mirror again. Wm. Howland
