My decade started out as a high school football player with big dreams of playing at the highest level. A few years later my life seemed to be going just as planned. I had a full ride scholarship to The University of Nebraska and was starting as a true freshman. But unfortunately after a career ending back injury I found myself in the picture you see on the left. I was 19 years old, morbidly obese, and getting ready for a 6 1/2 hour back surgery without knowing if I would ever be able to live a normal life again. After coming out of surgery I knew if I wanted to take control of my health a major change in lifestyle was needed. Luckily after a bit of searching I came across information on the benefits of a plant-based diet. And as skeptical as I was, I knew my previous diet built around animal products was hurting not helping me. So I began by building my new diet around the simple starchy staples (rice, oats, potatoes, etc) with the addition of fruits and vegetables. It was of course different to what I had grown up eating, but after a few days I knew I was never turning back. Which leads us to the picture on the right where you find me 6 years later. I am 100 pounds lighter, have helped my family go completely plant-based, and have just written a plant-based book dedicated to helping others experience the same health transformation as I have. So with the 2010’s behind us, my goal is that the next decade is when you and your family decide to take control of a your life, health, longevity, and legacy!
