Local Man's Amazing Weight Loss - WGRZ-TV

Two years ago, Mike Caruso weighed almost 500 pounds.  He was tired all the time.  And the weight he carried was a burden to more than just his body.

Mike noticed how people reacted to his weight - and it made him fell inadequate and self-conscious.  His obesity was taking a heavy emotional toll.  And the worse he felt, the more he ate.  He compares it to an addiction.

Mike blames everyday stress for his weight gain.  After years of losing control, he decided to make a change.  Instead of focusing on losing weight, Mike just wanted to feel better and be healthy.

Mike says, "I wanted to go back to eating the healthiest I could eat - meaning everything God has given us.  Fruits, vegetables, meat, potatoes, things that are alive, things we grow.  I haven't even touched bread, flour, or sugar."

Mike started exercising every day by walking and lifting weights.  And he never over-exerted himself.  Within months, the weight started coming off.  Today, Mike has lost 300 pounds - and his reclaimed his health and his life.
