Fitness Trainer Deliberately Gains & Loses Nearly 100 Lbs

A fitness trainer went from fit to fat and then back to fit -- deliberately gaining and losing nearly 100 lbs.

On "Anderson", Paul "PJ" James tells Anderson and his Monday Co-Host Carrie Ann Inaba that he wanted to understand his overweight clients better, but never expected the emotional and physical toll his experiment involved.

"I totally underestimated the psychological and the emotional impact that it would have on me, and I will be honest, in the beginning I thought 90 lbs. would be easy to take off," says the trainer.

Over a four-week span, PJ gained 88 lbs. and then spent approximately four months taking it off. Take a look at what he told Anderson about the process...





PJ tells Anderson and co-host Carrie Ann Inaba that "if you're struggling with weight, you have to make it a lifestyle choice. There's no quick fix, there's no dieting. Those things are short-term fixes that end up resulting in weight gain."
