I found this Podcast through another Podcast that I listen to "Keep Moving Forward w/ Anthony DiDomenico". The host Gormy is a well researched and a great interviewer. He really gets the stories of his guests to shine in the light that they deserve. I look forward to listening to many more episodes as I am also one that struggles with his weight.
