Read More

It's hard to believe that just a few years ago Peter Engwall tipped the scales at 300 plus lbs. After living a sedentary life for the first 30 something years, Peter decided to do something. Peter has shed 142 pounds and is now a slim 190.

Inspired by watching the reality TV show, "The Biggest Loser", and watching Bob Greene work with Oprah, Peter decided to take on his own wellness. Greene's Best Life program is simple and that is what appealed to Engwall. "The program is a lifestyle change, not a diet. You can ease into it, and it becomes natural."

Read More about Peter's story in this interview with Sweat365.com.
