A personal trainer is spending six months eating unhealthy foods and not exercising in an effort to gain weight. After this period of time, he'll spend six months losing the weight. What are your thoughts on this?
While I admire what he's doing and taking the concept of "walking a mile in someone's shoes" I don't think he'll truly be able to understand. Yes, he physically has an understanding of what it's like to be feel unhealthy, the daily difficulty of tying his shoes, etc. He says he has become addicted to the unhealthy foods, so maybe he will struggle a little. But so many of us spent a lifetime of unhealthy living. It's not easy for us to just flip the switch and suddenly maintain a healthy lifestyle. We work really hard at what we're doing. Do you think it will be that hard for him after only experiencing this lifestyle for six months?
