I wasn’t trying to lose weight when I met Fady. I was just cutting his hair. But over a few months, during our twice-monthly conversations, I’d ask him for advice, and he’d share practical tips without even trying to coach me.

I started putting his guidance into practice and ended up losing 84 pounds—and I’ve kept it off. It didn’t feel like work; I was just listening and following his systems. That’s how powerful his approach is.
