Press

I’ve appeared on local news stations numerous times and have also been featured by CNN, Newsweek and a lot of other fancy acronyms.  South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford even wrote me a letter to congratulate me on my weight loss.

I’m flattered by the attention my weight loss has received and love doing interviews to help spread the message of counting calories — a realistic way to lose weight.
