The inspiring Story of Weight Loss by Jared "The Subway Guy"

If you are seeing it difficult to lose weight and need inspiration look no farther than the breathtaking story of Jerrod Fogle, a.k.a. "The Subway Guy". At 20 years old Jerrod weighed 425 pounds. Jerrod's roommate at Indiana University was able to correctly diagnose Jerrod with two medical conditions: sleep apnea and edema. Because Jerrod's father was a physician he told Jerrod that unless he lost weight he might not live to the age of 35.

Jerrod decided to try a unique diet agenda that involved eating a 6-inch turkey sub sandwich for lunch and a foot long veggie sandwich for dinner. In expanding he added some walking to his new diet regime. After three months on this particular agenda he had lost over 100 pounds. He continued with the agenda of eating at Subway and walking as much as he could and in the end lost over 240 pounds as a result.

Weight Loss Story

Because of the success of Jerrod losing weight he was hired by Subway as a spokesperson to promote the salutary aspect of Subway sandwiches. He now is fully employed with Subway as their spokesperson and continues to show up in commercials all around the United States.

Jerrod now weighs 190 pounds, which is a good weight for his 6'2" frame. This type of radical weight-loss is enthralling because it shows just exactly what is potential when a person decides that they need to lose weight in order to avoid serious medical complications. If you are in Jerrod's position I hope that you can garner some sense of hope that someday you too can lose a vital whole of weight so that you can have a general body size once more.

What Jerrod proved is that changing your diet from an unhealthy one to one that is healthier, combined with a moderate form of exercise, you will lose weight for sure. How much you lose depends on how serious you are in staying on track to reach your goal weight. If you are not morbidly obese as was Jerrod, you will likely have an easier time of reaching your target. All it takes is the desire to see an revision in your weight and act in a unavoidable manner to see that convert take place.
