FOOD was their problem, separately and together. Marriage magnified its impact. Gaining 200 pounds wasn't in the vows and weight became problem they couldn't face.
Eventually, with doses of determination and devotion, they found a practice that brought them freedom.
You can find numerous How-To Books on Intermittent Fasting. This motivational memoir serves uniquely as a Why-To. Ryan & Kim Smith struggled with dysfunctional eating throughout their lives. They had been on the hamster wheel of diets long before they met. From the time of their wedding in 2003, they ate their way through a decade plagued by massive weight gain until 2014, at which point they topped out at well over 500 pounds combined. First Ryan began a weight loss effort, then Kim followed suit, eventually leading them both to the strategy called intermittent fasting. Combined, they have lost over 200 pounds. The journey transformed not only their relationship with food, but with themselves and with each other. Their lives are filled with peaceful joy that they hope to share with others.
