    Fat Guy Forum 364 - Keep Showing Up!

    Casey Ortiz joins me this week to share a story that doesn't resemble the majority of interviews I do. He grew up fit and strong and it wasn't until later in life that the weight came on. It was a combination of alcohol and food, and a devastating injury, that made him realize that showing up for himself and his health every day was a battle worth fighting. From 320 pounds to now down 138 pounds Casey found the activities and food choices that work best for him and his story will inspire you to do the same! Connect with Casey on IG at @caseyadam93!
