Steve Vaught is a 39-year-old man from Youngstown, Ohio who now resides in Southern California. Well, actually for the next several months he’ll be residing in a variety of states: California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York.

What’s the deal?…

One man's journey to walk himself healthy.

 

Steve has a weight problem, and he’s set out to tackle the issue himself. His plan: To WALK from San Diego, California to New York City in 6 months!

He started April 10, 2005, and as of today, he’s in Winslow, Arizona. That means he’s only passed through one-and-a-half of the NINE states he ultimately hopes to traverse… and only 3 more months left to go.

Perhaps his goal will be readjusted. Perhaps this will become a bigger goal and lifestyle change than Steve could even have imagined… Who knows?

Stay tuned to see where Steve’s walk takes him, and where this battle to fight the bulge ends up.

Fat man walking... Steve, before he started his walk across America to lose weight.For the record, Steve has a wife and kids…

and dozens of friends and supporters who are behind him all the way!

 

  • You, too, can show your support for Steve simply by signing his guestbook.
  • Check to see if he’ll be passing by your town… If he is, stop by and say Hello and offer some words of encouragement!
  • And don’t miss all the great pictures from the road that he’s posted! (…and photos of his mishaps too)

Good luck to you, Steve! No matter how long it takes you, we’re with you in spirit, and we are grateful to share your experience through the pictures you post. Keep up the good work!

…and keep chasing that proverbial “carrot”.

Professionally, I pursued my Masters Degree in Family Therapy at Texas Tech — where I obtained invaluable expertise and experience helping people with a wide variety of physical and emotional health issues. Personally, I think it's useful when people realize that they're not the only one going through a difficult time. So any time that I think my personal health experiences would be helpful to someone else going through the same thing, I will share my story here. With health issues that I've personally experienced (like Endometriosis, Lyme Disease, Hysterectomy, Skin Cancer, Ganglion Cysts, Autism, and other topics that very few people enjoy talking about) and health products that I've found beneficial (like sleep aids, essential oils, and medications)… I do my best to provide my own raw and honest firsthand experiences that I think others would appreciate hearing about and (hopefully) find helpful. I'm grateful that I have a number of friends who have also been willing to share their very personal stories here — regarding their own physical and emotional health. When I'm not writing about health topics, you will find me sharing Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).

JoshuaI want everyone to live their best life... for as long as possible. So I often write about the health screenings that we all should be getting -- to help catch potential health issues early. (Yes, I get my screenings too.) I also share my knowledge and experience with specific health problems that I am personally familiar with.
