Episode 245: Bill Streetman, Author of Simple... not Easy!: Escaping the Prison of Obesity

September 10, 2025 • Connie Stapleton, Ph.D. • Episode 245

My friend Bill Streetman, who I have known for many years, wrote a book about his bariatric journey. The book is called Simple... not Easy!: Escaping the Prison of Obesity. Bill has been super active in the bariatric community, inspiring hundreds of people who have also been dealing with obesity. During our conversation, Bill and I talk about how weight loss is about so much more than pounds lost, but is a path to living life fully! The Weight Loss Winformation Podcast gives you essential psychological information to help you lose weight and more importantly, to help keep you at a healthy weight for your body! No matter how you are working to lose weight and no matter how much weight you want to lose, Weight Loss Winformation will keep you moving in a positive direction.
