THE AUTHOR'S JOURNEY

I didn't write Cut the Crap because I've always had nutrition figured out. I wrote it because I didn't.

I know what it's like to struggle with weight, lose it, gain it back, and wonder why doing everything 'right' still doesn't seem to work. Eventually, I stopped looking for another diet and started learning how nutrition actually works.

As a U.S. Army Engineer officer, I knew operational discipline. But nutrition remained a frustrating puzzle. I swung between rigid extreme diets (keto, starvation macros, 6-day gym exhaustion) and inevitable burnout.

Real transformation happened only when I treated my body as an engineering system: balancing the thermodynamic energy equation, leveraging protein for natural hunger suppression, and removing friction from daily life.
