Breaking nearly all of the documented long-term weight loss records
- Andrew Leon LeClair has maintained a successful weight loss of
125 pounds for an unprecedented thirty years Andrew began his
life's journey with a seemingly normal childhood, but the
challenging reality of his youth and family life set the tone for
his accelerated path to adulthood. Because Andrew realized that he
was unwilling to accept limitation or defeat - he chose to take
control of his life, rearrange his priorities, and find a long-term
strategy to overcome obesity and achieve success and happiness.
As a child, after watching his parents suffer in the face of
tragedy, while dealing with his own struggles - Andrew turned to
food for solace and comfort. During a time when "baby fat" was a
fashionable expression of denial, no one knew then, what challenges
would await Andrew's arrival later.
After years of emotional warfare and dysfunction, divorce was
inevitable for Andrew's parents. While his mother's second marriage
was apparently better for her and initially pleasant for the
children - that alliance quickly evolved into upheaval, forcing
Andrew to grow up and embrace adulthood sooner than anticipated.
Food remained steadfast within Andrew's life, as he tried to find
his way through a multitude of grown-up challenges. Though he knew
he was not living the healthiest life, he did not view it as a
pressing problem either. His lack of concern eventually changed
after he witnessed the health issues that resulted from his
father's destructive behavior and disinterest in physical fitness
and healthy habits. Andrew realized that he had to find a way to
prevent the same fate in his own life, and wanted to figure out how
to lose the weight that hindered so many of his aspirations.
Although Andrew knew that a quick fix did not exist, he was willing
to take drastic measures to achieve weight loss. It was a
frightening time for Andrew, but the thought of having a serious
illness like his father scared him even more.
After embarking upon a risky surgical weight loss procedure, Andrew
quickly found out that it was not an end to his problems, but the
beginning of a new life with more challenges and adversity. He
realized that he would have to commit to changing his entire life
from food intake and portion control to exercise and fitness, in
order to begin dropping pounds and having any chance of maintaining
that weight loss.
Andrew's new path was not easy, and every time he believed, he had
found a plateau within his journey that would allow him to relax
and let down his guard - a new and unexpected conflict or challenge
would arise, testing his tolerance and ability to overcome and move
forward.
In the midst of Andrew's physical lifestyle changes, he discovered
a career that could be rewarding and provide financial stability.
However, with so many life-altering changes occurring along the
way, he found himself tangled within battles between maintaining a
healthy physical existence and reaching for his professional
dreams. Andrew knew that if he had any chance of achieving his
objectives, he had to plan a permanent strategy that would provide
balance within the various facets of his life.
Throughout the ensuing years, the media has placed an increasing
amount of focus upon weight loss and fitness, with the use of diet
programs and products, exercise equipment, and television reality
shows promoting weight loss competitions.
These types of shows stir up media buzz and public support.
However, when the shows are over, the participants often return to
their old habits, because they chose to lose weight for rewards,
rather than for life. Consequently, the public hears reports of
those same individuals regaining their previously lost weight,
along with a few additional pounds.
Andrew did not want to be that type of statistic, which was evident
