Dave Reed is your average Midwestern family man with one notable exception - over the last several years, he has lost over 225 pounds and counting, eliminating prediabetes and the early signs of congestive heart failure in the process. After decades of struggling with his weight and trying every crazy fad diet under the sun, Dave gave calorie restriction an honest try and saved his life in the process.

Now that the book is finished, Dave is blogging, creating recipes and maintaining a free online weight loss support forum to help promote and support others in the calories in, calories out lifestyle that has brought him so much success and happiness.
