Used to be: when I dieted, I lost weight. When I stopped dieting I put the weight back on.
Now: I changed my diet, lost the weight, and it hasn’t come back. Didn’t have to exercise, actually due to neuropathy, not terribly active, just cut back on portions. No more supersizing portions. Cut back on junk(did not say eliminate) food. These days I’m 85 pounds lighter than my worse at 280.
Bottom Line: Do Not Diet, Change Your Diet, you’ll be much happier.
The two of you are wonderful people for sharing part of the history of your upbringing. This is one of the best ways for viewers to relate and make a change for the better. Keep up the great work!
When I blew my back up, I lost a lot of weight before surgery. Since surgery and my recovery, I’ve managed to keep it mostly off. I think being healthy as a pilot is a good thing. Plus it’s good to get rid of some of that useless load.
Y’all got real! I get both perspectives. Keep up the good work.
I love you guys... you're so honest and authentic. Thx
Christie, you are killing it. Great job and thanks for sharing your journey with us 🙌
Brave ground yous covered there. And Christie, what was in that glorious hobo soup?
In a perfect world, I would want some pics of your fav pool bars next. ~8D
I'm in the same boat, but for health reasons. And it really is important as I can't do the things I could do when I was just a few years younger. I basically got lazy, now I'm paying for it. So I salute both of you, and maybe we can be our own support group and make better eating choices together!
Christy is so incredibly beautiful! Looking great as always!
Thank you both for sharing your upbringing. We all think our childhood was "terrible" but you both show how a couple of well balanced people handle the past. Thanks
Y'all should do a fireside chat at Oshkosh one night - this was so interesting to listen to and learn from!
If you have a family history of diabetes and don't exercise or eat well, that's a pretty good way of giving yourself Type II diabetes. Ask me how I know. Diabetes isn't just about blood sugar. It messes with your entire body. It's the gift that keeps on giving even if it's managed.
Hey Dan, Berger Chef is still opened in Missouri, there is a man Named Butch Schroeder who owns them and owns and flies an AT-6 and a Mustang named Lil Margaret.
I see a field trip for a $100 hamburger in the future
Excellent podcast Dan and Christy. Definitely a topic many people struggle with. It's great to see that the two of you overcame your rough childhoods and are doing very well for yourselves. I myself have gained a little weight recently, and this will give me more motivation to get it off. Thank you. Keep up the excellent work and keep being awesome people. Safe skies my friends 🇺🇸🛩️
Dan, i pass in front of a once upon a time Burger Chef everyday. It's now a finance company. The drive up window is still there! I salute the both of you for airing some of your most persnal moments in your life! The both of you have made the most of opportunities that were thrown your way!
I can still smell it, and can remember one of the kid toys I got in first grade-- a boat with a balloon that would power it in the bathtub.
You both should read a book called "younger next year" by Chris Crowley. It's a book about changing your lifestyle has nothing to do with diets.
Try going out picking nettles to boil to make nettle soap!
I'm 62 and fit. I used to have a doughnut and 2 coffee/day until 2019 when diagnosed with T2 diabetes. No coffee, alcohol or any sweets since. Regular exercise and healthy eating go hand in hand. We can't be in 2 places at one time, so if you are a busy person, you have to give something up in order to exercise. I noticed that many of the professional RUclips pilots exercised daily and eventually gave up RUclips.
have to ditch the sectional chart pants and switch the WAC charts. They cover a lot more territory if you know what I mean ! !
I, for one think that this topic and your admitting how your child hood was is an enlightening departure from your norm. I want to know more about you guys and how you arrived here.
You can maintain a healthy lifestyle traveling. I travel every week for my job. And I eat very healthy. I am a pilot but that's not my profession. I am a financial advisor so my job is not physical. A lot of computer and client meetings. I do work out 6 days a week. A healthy lifestyle is a choice.
I’ve just eaten. Now I’ve watched this food video, I’m hungry again! Thanks 😊
Me too
Making Big Beautiful meals doesn't mean that they have to be Fattening they CAN be healthy!
Christy is right . Diet is not to lose weight it’s a lifestyle. But from time to time I eat out during the day even if I have my lunch with me. I’m weak to Dan .
Could you please do a podcast on sport aviation and faa license please? It would be to get two points of view1
Pilot for 50 yrs I STOP eating Carbs, suger,and (eating out for 2 yrs) is BAD
Burger Chef...are you a Hoosier Dan?
Texan through and through. Born raised Austin. That's where the Burger Chef was.
Dan, Burger Chef use to have the best fish sandwich
I wouldnt know. Hate fish. LOL.
An airline pilot once said to me that he always considered himself to be six months away from being unemployed if he failed his medical. That was his motivation for following a healthy lifestyle. Do you know of any ATPs who have lost jobs because of failing their medical?
Yes they changed vision color blindness test. He been flying for 16 years.
👍✅ That was really hard to watch guys. 😢
Do(ugh)not participate!
We have been on that lifestyle since 2021.
Never felt better.
At 17, my parents got a divorce and sold the house. I took on more hours at Burger Chef!
That was my boy to man right of passage.
I had $1 dollar per day for food.
At that time, the salad bar was $1.
It only had lettuce, shredded cheese, mushrooms, and croutons.
On the weekends I hit any relatives that would feed me.
I do miss the big Chef, Super Chef and filet o fish.
Nowadays, I frequent Burger King
Enjoy you sickness.
I recently learned that the very first case of a heart attack causing death in the USA was in 1912! A decade or two later, it was the number one killer in the country. It is thought that the new attitude towards food...reducing the amount of meat and adding seed oils into the diet really has made us all very sick. I try to stick with a carnivore diet but am far from perfect and regularly fall off plan because I am not strong enough to resist temptation at times. I am certainly giving it a good try this time around, though and lost over 130lbs doing keto a few years ago.
Same here!!!
A whole food plant based diet (Vegan) is the healthy way to lose weight.
You know, you can cook your own burgers, Dan.
Yeah I’ve got a new grill and a package in the freezer.
100K subs guys, so when is she sky diving lol....
Announcement coming soon!
A very large part of food intake is psychological. If you really want to lose weight, you need knowledge, a dietitian, a support system, and some sort of mental assistance. Oh, and money. Good food costs way more than bad.
Good food costs more *upfront*
In the long term crummy food can cost a whole lot more, particularly for professional pilots who are reliant on their medicals to make a substantial income. Even if not bound by a medical cert, what we eat is a huge determinant of how many prescriptions we end up needing later on and it doesn’t take too many of those to quickly cost exceed the savings off the grocery budget.
Losing weight is easy. It’s just how much you consume. I’ve got maybe half a dozen minor changes that make it nearly effortless.
Being healthy however is hard. It means consistent exercise, and not just watching how much you consume but what exactly it is you choose to.
Maybe it’s just me and it really doesn’t matter but I like the thickness on Christy. I’d rather not see a telephone pole.
it's just you.
I definitely gained some weight during my flight training days - right around 15 lbs! But the past year or so I’ve been building up muscle in my legs which makes them look even thicker. 🙈 So now my goal is to keep the muscle, lose the fat. It’s a process for sure!
Military Aviators diet a lot. Officers and all. They will shame you if get fat and weak.
A starving dog will live longer! Just saying!
