450 pounds to powerlifter | HC #33 Meet Eric

Welcome back to Heavy Conversations, the podcast where we dive deep into the real stories behind health and transformation. Today, we’re joined by Eric, a family man who transformed his life, going from 450 pounds down to a healthy 210 with the help of Bariatric Surgery.

In this episode, Eric shares the moment he decided to undergo Bariatric Surgery, his preparation for it, and what life—especially around food—was like in the early days after. We also explore how he discovered powerlifting with his son; we then share stories about the importance today as parents to teach healthy habits to kids in a world so different from the one we grew up in.

Eleven years post-op, Eric opens up about the emotional challenges and beyond he faced without binge eating to include struggles with alcohol. His thoughts on Ozempec and the lingering stigma around Bariatric Surgery

Eric’s story is full of hard-won insights and inspiration for anyone working toward a healthier life.
