    At the age of 48, James Rice (IBT College) weighed 300 pounds (135kg/21.5 stone) was pre-diabetic, with high blood pressure and arthritis and could barely fit into XXXL shirts. Then one day a former student who he had supported to study in Canada, opened a gym, and James began a total life transformation. This episode is so surreal you couldn't make it up. From finding the Ark of the Covenant to becoming friends with Arnold Schwarzenegger, get ready to feel motivated for miracles.

    'Put the cookie down' is reference to the line in Arnie film Jingle All The Way and James is the best-selling author of his body transformation memoirs in the The 100 Pound War. James encourages anyone to reach out for advice on health and weight loss inspired by this episode. www.100poundwar.com/
