Summary: We are honored today to have a very special guest. Our guest today built a multi-million dollar financial advisory firm. However, at one point in his career, he was ready to leave the business world; not because he wasn't financially successful but because he was overweight, unhealthy & unhappy. Beginning in 2004, he went through an inspiring journey losing 140 pounds of excess weight and now competes in triathlons. In other words he went from 313 pounds to 173 pounds. After mentoring 12 friends to lose a combined 321 pounds of excess weight in less than a year, he wrote the book The Fitness Race, which was published in April 2008. The Fitness Race will inspire those who struggle with their weight and give them a plan and path to get as light and fit as they choose. Mark Little will share a brief history as to what actually helped him decide that being 313 pounds was no longer acceptable and his decision to do something about getting lighter and fitter. He will also talk about the importance of accountability coaching as it applies to him in his life and in The Fitness Race. In addition, Mark will discuss the choices he made in relationship to his eating habits. If I recall correctly, at one point Mark ate a lot at McDonalds and still lost weight. This isn’t a typical story you would hear from most people. You can review Mark’s story and the story of others he has mentored at www.TheFitnessRace.com. You will enjoy this interview with such an amazing person who has enjoyed and still enjoys both professional and personal success.
