Matt and Suzy Hoover — their names may ring a bell. The couple is known for their appearance on the NBC reality series, The Biggest Loser, and made headlines when they first won the weight loss competition, and then were married shortly after meeting on the show.Now they are endorsing an Eastern Idaho doctor.
The two have since kept the weight off and are launching a new website today about optimal health, and they believe Dr. Warren Willey from Pocatello has the answers to shedding stubborn pounds.
Dr. Warren Willey is a board certified osteopathic physician trained at the Mayo Clinic, is the medical director of the Physicians Immediate Care in Pocatello, a competitive body builder who writes for bodybuilding.com, founder of Idaho’s walk-in weight loss program, and last but not least, an author of two best-selling health books.
Tom Yates has been a patient of Dr. Willey for two years now.
Tom Yates/Patient of Dr. Willey: “I don’t know if reading the books or knowing him saved my life, but it definitely gave me some longevity, and it gave me a higher quality of life.”
And now his health books are making even more of an impact as winners from NBC’s reality show, The Biggest Loser, Matt and Suzy Hoover, have read his books and want to share Dr. Willey’s health approach with the launch of their new website.
Warren Willey, Author and Doctor: “Matt Hoover called me up. He found my book in the local book store and read it. I talked to him for about an hour. The emphasis of our conversation was the reality of weight loss, what really works in the long run.”
The books focus is on optimizing health and muscle mass, and no more yo-yo dieting.
Warren Willey: “To get word out a little more that hey, weight loss is a lot more than calories in and calories out, exercising your butt off and eating like a bird. It’s a big picture thing.”
Tom Yates: “You can only run so many ways on a treadmill and they’re all horrible. But when you start getting results it makes it less horrible. So that was the difference. Not that I changed what I was doing from a physical aspect, but from a mental and emotional, and then from a diet aspect, I changed those things and it put it all together.”
Tom Yates: “Makes me feel like the things I’m doing now will allow me to have a quality of life with my daughter in the future. When she’s 16 or 17 years old, and she’s doing things, I don’t want to be the dad that’s not able to do stuff with her. Not the guy that’s sitting home because I’m winded from walking.”
