  • Chuck Carroll is currently the host of the Exam Room Podcast produced by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. But if you would have seen Chuck in his twenties, you certainly would not have guessed that ten years later he would be hosting one of the most popular health and wellness podcasts. At his heaviest, Chuck weighed 420 pounds and was beginning to wonder if he would live long enough to see his thirtieth birthday.
    Chuck is living proof that a plant-based diet is optimal both for healthy weight loss and also keeping the weight off long term. Now at a healthy body weight, Chuck is focussed on helping others experience the same life changing benefits he has experienced since adopting a whole food plant-based diet.
    On today's episode we cover how Chuck got to be over four hundred pounds before his thirtieth birthday. Chuck also explains the simple way of eating that has been so important for keeping the weight off and staying fit. I ask Chuck what some of his biggest takeaways have been from interviewing plant-based experts on his podcast. And what life is like after losing 300 pounds.
    I hope you find today's episode informative, enjoyable, and uplifting. If you have any questions or suggestions make sure to leave them in the comments section below!

    No wonder he is such a compelling interviewer! His daily Exam Room "lives" are a wealth of great information. Thanks for this interview.

    300 pounds, that's amazing! So well done! I love the idea of kitchen sink salad 🥗😁 Mine are like that as well - every time slightly different, depending on what I have in the fridge!

    What a great interview! I can relate to the addictive aspects of food. You two rock for getting this info out there for everyone who needs it.

    Great interview Gabriel! And I agree with Chuck "What the Health" is one of the best documentaries to help convince people that this is the way to live! Good point that you brought up in this interview about "The extra skin" being just an excuse to continue with bad eating habits. A good question for some with that mindset is "wouldn't you rather live a long healthy life and have a little extra skin or would you rather be walking around morbidly obese with nice firm skin cushioned by all that fat?

    I appreciate this so much guys! I suffer from a binge eating disorder and ever since I started a vegan lifestyle i haven’t really binged. It’s a journey and I’m so excited to lose weight too! I need to drop 100lbs and you are helping my motivation. Thank you ☺️

    Hi Gabriel. I use your cook book on a regular basis and love the recipes. I really enjoy making the tuna salad recipe. You use avocado as the mayo and I was wondering what substitute would you recommend for the avocado as I am trying to keep my diet low fat. I am thinking maybe puréed cannellini beans but maybe you have a better suggestion? Thank you.

    • @sshane1986
      @sshane1986 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That could work. I use tofu mayo that I make at home with the tetra packs of silken tofu. I get the base recipe from the starch solution book and play with it to suit my taste. You can get the recipe on the plant based dads TH-cam channel, you may even find it online. Take care!

    For me ( I’m sure not necessarily true for everyone) but about 30 years ago I tried going meatless. I still ate dairy . It didn’t last. Last January I went totally plant based. I think cutting out all the dairy and meat took out all the addictive foods. Those foods , for me, are super addicting. I haven’t missed any of them. Not really missed them. Yes every once in a while one of those foods sounds good but not to that addictive stage where “I must have it”...🤷🏻‍♀️

    going on a long-time water fast, the body goes into autophagy (self-eating) and the skin is absorbed as part of the body's cleansing system The only way loose skin will not be an issue. Reference Dr. Goldhamer at True North Health center where Chef AJ goes to take vacation time !!!

    You know I always thought that Chuck Carroll lost all of his weight by going vegan. However I read an article that states he had gastric bypass. Well that is not all that inspiring to lose weight with bariatric surgery. People that eat animal products can lose weight after gastric bypass. So now this guy is all of a sudden a Vegan expert when it comes to weight loss but he had gastric surgery. This guy has lost some credibility.

    • @rolliemaniquet6858

      If you look more into gastric bypass surgery, you will find that many end up gaining back the weight within a couple years after surgery because they are still hooked on unhealthy food. Then they go for a second surgery. It’s awful. Maintaining weight loss is harder than losing weight. His WFPB diet has proven that even after gastric bypass surgery he has been able to maintain weight loss and avoid subsequent surgeries.

    • @SandyBatten1962
      @SandyBatten1962 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agree. With gastric bypass you volume of food is diminished so less energy or calories are consumed and fat loss naturally occurs. Add in vegan ism or calorie density eating and bingo, even less calories. So yes, you can't unsee the connection here. Not to diminish Chucks achievements but let's see the whole picture.
