I love this man. I read his book, “Move a Little, Lose a Lot”. It changed my life. I started walking (15 minutes 5 times a day with Leslie Sansone videos). I do weight training twice a week, but other than that I don’t work out; I just move. I went from 157 to 140 in one year. Thank you Dr. Levine!

To be more like Dr Levine is a good thing to want.

Nice video.
Another tip: stay away from CZcams! :)

Unless you're up and walking. Then feast away!

But we can learn a lot from CZcams!
