Interesting story but terrible narration
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
If you are currently trying to diet or interested in diet/eating habits then it's an interesting story, if you aren't then it'd probably bore you to tears!
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Drew Manning is excellent at what he does i.e. training but he is an awful narrator (even though he's telling his own story!!). From the start the narration is littered with awkward pauses and errors with inflection and emphasis. His delivery is stilted and quite excruciating to listen to. It's a shame as I was interested in the story but it was a case of enduring the narration to get through it rather than the narration adding to the story.

Very insightful!
I can't imagine being fit your whole lifestyle from and deciding to gain an excess of weight. In my opinion only a person who truly wants to change lives would take such drastic measures.

Not much there, could have been so much more
The overall feel that I got from this was "OK, that is done, now it is time to write a book".
the one chapter with his wife was very interesting, but it only talked about the beginning / mid part of the journey. Why not have some other chapters with her as well, say after he came back or during it? I find it hard to believe that there was not a lot more that could have been put in here. Do I regret buying it? No, worth the money for me - but know ahead of time that it will end early and leave you wishing there was more there.
