Food and Our Fat

The Confident Man Podcast will become The Thriving Man Podcast starting the first Wednesday in August!

We are going to a whole new level when it comes to empowering men!

Food is a part of life; everyone has to eat, and we all recognize that. However, the problem with food is the reality that so many men are fighting obesity. Obesity is having a body fat percentage of 30% and up. In the US, 75% of men over 40 are obese!

The truth all of us, as men have to face, is our food is a big part of this problem. What we eat and how much we eat play the primary part in our fatness. We have to learn how to focus on our food the right way because there are too many crazy theories and attitudes about food that are just plain wrong.

The Food Did It!

  • One of the easiest things to do when we gain weight is to blame
  • Quit Blaming the Food
  • Losing Weight is About the Food
  • We have to quit trying to make the food behave
  • Our obesity issue as men is not the food's fault

The Art of Self-Control

  • Self-control is not a popular topic to talk about when it comes to losing weight
  • The truth is eating better and eating less is the key for most men
  • We have to become more intentional about our eating
  • We need to have a purpose for our eating
  • We need to understand that we don't have to eat it all!
  • When we understand our part in our own weight issues it empowers us
  • The benefit of growing stronger in your self-control is you start to see the benefits in every area of your life

The Food Quality Focus

  • If we are going to take our weight seriously and battle obesity, we must take a look at our food and what we eat
  • Quality food truth
  • Quality food work
  • Quality food goal
  • Quality food snob
  • Let quality win over quantity and you will find long-term success

About the Podcast

The Thriving Man Podcast
Helping Men Live a Life They can be Proud of!
Many guys get trapped in focusing on one area of their life at the expense of everything else. It could be their physical health, their career, a sport, or even a hobby. The problem is this: A Truly Successful Life isn't one-dimensional! That is why there are miserable millionaires. Who cares how much money you have if, for example, you have no one you can call a true friend?
There has to be a better approach than this.
The Thriving Man Podcast helps men grow in the 4 fundamentals of their life: Emotional, Mental, Physical, & Spiritual. We help men see that "Success is Inside Out and On the Way!"
