Brian Montgomery shares one of the most powerful transformation stories in the pickleball community. After reaching nearly 390 pounds and avoiding the doctor out of fear, Brian began with one simple goal: 5,000 steps a day. Step by step, he built momentum, changed his relationship with food, and ultimately lost more than 190 pounds, while also reversing Type 2 diabetes.
In this episode, Brian opens up about the emotional moments that made the change real, including seeing how his kids experienced his transformation. He also shares how pickleball became the “sneaky exercise” that brought joy, accountability, and a whole new community into his life.
If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or waiting for “next Monday,” Brian’s story will inspire you to start today, one small decision at a time.
