Dr Mondo Ep. 04 Part 1 / The Grind MCRC

The Grind - A Missing Chins Run Club Podcast

Dr. Mondo is a proud member of the Missing Chins Run Club having been on his own weight loss journey and also completing his first Ultra Marathon. He is also on a mission to help people who have been overweight since childhood lose the weight and keep it off for good. He is the only therapist to have gained exclusive access to conduct academic research with former contestants of NBC’s The Biggest Loser. That research with the hit show launched Dr. Mondo’s career and allowed him to create a comprehensive academic theory of drastic weight loss explaining the 8 psychological, identity and relationship stages people go through during weight loss. Today Dr. Mondo’s theory is used by weight loss centers, gyms and personal trainers as part of an online program called Road Map to Weight Loss that provides assessment, education and tools to successfully navigate the changes that unfold during weight loss. Dr. Mondo received his Doctorate of Psychology in Marriage & Family Therapy and currently practices as a licensed therapist providing counseling and coaching. When he’s not practicing Dr. Mondo is also a popular speaker invited to present on his research on the psychology of weight loss and advocacy efforts to include therapy in conjunction with drastic weight loss. Prior to entering the field of psychology, at the age of 14, Dr. Mondo became one of the youngest sports broadcasters in the country hosting a popular weekly Northern California sports television program where he interviewed local professional NBA, MLB and NFL athletes. Today, he resides in Sacramento, California with his wife Katie. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/missingchinsrunclub/message
