On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on journalist and author Sam MacDonald who talked about his book The Urban Hermit. In it he chronicles his journey from being an underemployed Yale party guy who was in debt and obese to being a happily married debt free semi-success like the rest of his Yale buddies. And he did this all by eating lentils, hard boiled eggs and tuna fish sandwiches.  It is a hilarious piece of non-fiction that shows that you can lose weight and keep it off by spending $8 a week on food. While even Sam doesn’t recommend you follow his weight loss plan - it did work for him. Please go to Amazon and check this book out.
