Ep. 170 | Down Nearly 20 lbs, Mentally Sharp and Physically Stronger on a Plant-Based Diet – Interview With Client Arthur [Part 2]

Take a moment to reflect: what do you think you need to really succeed in reaching your weight or health goals? Is it the newest restrictive fad diet, more time or more money? For my client Arthur, what made the difference was personalized coaching support and a clear-cut transition plan to eating and cooking plant-powered.

Living mostly alone, Arthur came to me not knowing how to cook much except BBQ-ing meats and boiling vegetables (then adding butter or cheese on top!). His other big challenge was having a tiny kitchen with a single stove-top burner. But he was motivated to become a healthy grandpa so he can be there for his growing grandchildren. But within a few months of working together, I saw a huge change in Arthur’s eating and lifestyle habits!

In this interview segment, Arthur shares more about key positive changes he has experienced since moving into a plant-powered lifestyle, such as feeling more cognitively alert, having greater strength in weight training, and much more.

Besides learning how to make tasty plant-based dishes, he also learned how to bake his own bread. He also enjoyed a weight loss of about 20 pounds, entertaining guests with plant-based dishes, and restarted an active lifestyle with racewalking and swimming…all at the age of 75!
