3. Physical Transformations (with Eddie Chavez-Ponce)

from Pete's Picks · host Pete

Eddie Chavez-Ponce grew up in Los Angeles and struggled with self-confidence and weight issues for much of his adolescence and young adulthood. At 18, his weight peaked at 340lbs.  Now 130lbs lighter (naturally) and starting his own fitness and nutrition business, Eddie is a proof that weight management is all about the long game: a delicate combination of discipline, consistency, and education.   During a sweaty hike on the outskirts of LA, Eddie and I discussed the troubles he encountered in school, some of the reservations he has about the health and fitness industry, and the app that kicked off his weight loss journey.  @eddie_cp
