How did Fat Smashed come about? That is simple, I have struggled with weight issues for most of my adult life. I have attempted many times in the past to lose weight and improve my health, and managed to do so to a significant degree and varying levels of success on several different ocassions. However, this time I really fell into a bad shape. I was at the highest weight I had ever been and was a phsycial and mental wreck. I felt my body disintegrating before my eyes and realized I needed to do something to get back on track. That is when I heard about Dr. Ian Smith on the radio. I really had nothing to lose, so I tracked down his book on Amazon and ordered copy. Shortly thereafter I was ready to go.
