Today’s podcast features my interview with the TFS’s March 2007 Success Story: former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.
In 2003, Mike learned that he had developed adult-onset (type-2) diabetes and would not live more than 10 years without losing weight. Faced with his own mortality, Mike decided to completely change his life.
He took up running, significantly altered his diet, lost 110 pounds and completed several marathons. Mike continues to maintain a healthy lifestyle, runs on a regular basis and has become a passionate national advocate for proper health and nutrition.
Download the podcast to hear about Mike’s life-saving battle with obesity, how his experience has influenced his plans for health care reform as a 2008 candidate for the U.S. presidency, his advice for others and much more!
