Non-Fiction | Self-Help Diet
At the age of 22, Ben Davis weighed over 360 pounds.
Depressed, addicted to food, and morbidly obese, he thought
he’d lost all hope. But after a Christmas Eve conversation
with his grandmother, Ben promised himself that he would
finally take control of his life.
Ben decided to “do
life,” and so can you.
He started
running—slowly at first, but as the pounds came off and his
outlook on life started to change, he went faster and
further. At first, he couldn’t run a mile, but before long
he was running five, ten, and then twenty miles at a time.
His father and brother joined him, and as a team they ran a
marathon and went on to complete one of the hardest physical
competitions in the world, the Ironman.
Throughout
his journey, Ben captured his transformation in a series of
YouTube videos, inspiring countless others around the world
to “do life” along with him. In Do Life, Ben shares more of
his personal story--from his lifelong struggles with food
and obesity to each goal that he set for himself along his
journey, including the pitfalls, setbacks, and hard won
victories.
But in Do Life, Ben does more than
tell his story. He illustrates how you can use his
techniques to start living your own life to the fullest,
whether that means making a complete transformation, losing
weight, or simply running further. Running taught Ben how to
“do life” and here he teaches you what he’s learned along
the way—how to set aside crippling fear and self-doubt,
finally find your smile, and ultimately share it with those
around you. By sharing his discovery of what was holding him
back and how he was able to push forward, Ben will teach you
how to break free from any obstacle and live the life you’ve
always wanted.
Do Life isn’t just about diet
or exercise, depression, or addiction—it’s about stepping
out of your ordinary life and becoming who you want to be.
It’s the story of one man who decided to live life his way.
And it could be your story, too.
